About this ebook

Superman has been called many things, from the defender of truth, justice and the American way to the Big Blue Boy Scout. In LEX LUTHOR: MAN OF STEEL, he is called something he has never been called before: a threat to all humanity. Brian Azzarello and artist Lee Bermejo—the acclaimed team who brought you the best-selling JOKER—deliver a bold story in which readers get a glimpse into the mind of Superman's longtime foe. MAN OF STEEL reveals why Luthor chooses to be the proverbial thorn in the Man of Steel's side: to save humanity from an untrustworthy alien being.

I found it unsatisfiying because in the end it doesn't go anywhere. We know Luthor's obsessed with Superman, but it sets up this whole premise and then what? Gritty artwork, but not enough story
