how can you even pretend this has aged poorly, superman is coldddd in this. The scene in the road is one of the coolest and most iconic scenes of all time. Just brilliant stuff.

Great introduction to the character that reshaped comics. The issue moves fast as lightning introducing Lois, Clark and Supes. Lots of fun with nice art.

If we are ignoring the incalculable cultural impact that would follow the birth of Superman, I bet that the concept of the character was intensely exciting in 1938, and the brief look into some of Superman's escapades is genuinely engaging.

This is where superhero comics began. Great snapshot of the era. The one page origin is appreciated. The art layouts and scripts are obviously inspired by newspaper comic strips and pulp magazines. The sequential panels tell a story well, although the details are rudimentary. Newbies will be surprised Superman tackles domestic violence and wants to prevent the U.S. from entering the war in Europe (!). Rest of the comic is an anthology, and very skippable.
