1. Superman: Secret Identity
…lived in our world?”
I love Superman: Secret Identity so diddily-darn much.
The story follows a young boy named Clark Kent who…is relentlessly mocked by his peers and his classmates for being named after a comic book character. Admittedly, at least if you have to be named after a comic book character, better to be Clark Kent than Roy G. Bivolo. So you LUCKED OUT, mister.
But anyhoozles, the actual story continues from there, with Clark going out into the woods on a camping trip to clear his head…only to wake up floating 50 feet in the air. As Clark begins to manifest Superman’s classic power set, he has to deal with unwanted publicity and the intervention of the US military in one of my favorite Superman stories ever. It’s just so perfect.
Kurt Busiek’s writing is excellent as always and Stuart Immonen’s artwork is heart-stoppingly beautiful. And these two creators, whose worst stuff is better than most people’s best, work together to bring this virtually perfect piece of comic booking excellence to life.
Perfection.
