From Booklist:
Gr. 4-7. Done in the style of DC's hit animated television shows, the Superman Adventures series streamlines character and action into five stories that function on many levels and produce that elusive reading experience that is actually "fun for all ages." The tales, pared down to simple, dynamic forms, follow the caped crusader as he contends with invaders from Krypton, the return of his parent, and a hypnotic criminal who gets the best of Lois Lane. But along with the fun, readers will find references to powerful issues--parental fallibility and what it really means to love someone. The animation-style art crackles with a sense of motion and energy, while still leaving plenty of room for fun and character (Clark rushing to a rescue leaving a juicy hamburger behind uneaten). With darker heroes and themes becoming more prevalent in superhero graphic novels, these thrilling stories remind us how much value there is in just being a plain old nice guy. Jesse Karp
