Comic Book Review Day

Okay, so far I've only talked about novels based off of comic books. Well, today I'm actually going to talk about a comic book. Well, a graphic novel I guess. This one is a DC one. Superman: Our Worlds At War is the title. I don't know if the Superman is part of the title but it is mainly in the Superman comics. It was written by Jeph Loeb, Joe Kelly, Phil Jimenez and various; Art by Ed McGuinness, Ron Garney, Doug Mahnke, Jimenez, Bill Sienkiewicz, and various Cover by McGuinness. dccomics.com said this about it; "A new volume including the two original Our Worlds At War collections! Imperiex has been unleashed! As planets are destroyed in its mighty wake and with Earth in its path, Superman is forced to form alliances with President Lex Luthor and Darkseid. For once, this looks like a job that not even Superman can handle! " Lots of characters die and all sorts of really cool things happen like Superman flying into the sun and becoming crazy powerful. I've heard he's done that a few times but this is the only story that I've ever seen him do it. It's got great art but it is one of those stories that jumped around from comic book to comic book originally so there is lots of different art styles. And whoever your favorite character is they are almost certain to be in this story.
Now, I'm not exactly sure what universe or whatever this happens in because the continuity of this story doesn't seem to work with other books I've read and other things that I've heard about so if any one has any insight on this let me know. Anyway, it's a way cool story and I recommend everyone check it out.
