Superman - Action Comic 1 - Invisible Mafia

Bendis covers not only Superman's life but also the challenges he faces as a reporter and as a husband and father. I have been following Action Comics since Rebirth and Bendis work is quite different. Major focus point is on secrets and mysteries.. or just say on story.A new gang has been working underground in Metropolis while big blue is completely unaware of it. A rash of mysterious fires start the questions... who and why? All the questions are still unanswered and mysteries are unresolved to Superman. While it's enjoyable it also gives a solid foundation for the next story lineup.This is really beautiful book. Patrick Gleason, Plaquette and Ryan Sook have put their talents together to make it look beautiful.I will highly recommend to read Bendis' previous paperbacks to get the whole idea of the story.

Boa história, mas fica arrastada em alguns momentos com os diálogos típicos do Bendis. Desenhos excelentes!

This was so good! I'm really enjoying Brian Michael Bendis take on Superman. Especially like his interaction with his wife Lois. The art work by Patrick Gleason is perfect in my opinion. Can't get enough of this keep it coming Mr. Bendis!

Disappointing collection. A dearth of action or anything of substance, base plot that moves along at a painful pace. Predictable reveal to the 'villain', some really poor dialogue. It all feels like filler.Considering how much I enjoyed The Man of Steel Limited series Unity Saga Vol 1 and that this series runs concurrent to that story I went in with higher hopes for this, but it seems that having Bendis on BOTH Superman and Action Comics was a chasm to wide.Like most non Omnibus or Deluxe hardcovers the binding on this book is super-- no pun-- tight. And the reason this gets 2 stars instead of 3 is the paper quality. Matte like paper that DC seem to be running with now with most of their books that does nothing to bring the art or colours off the page.If you want to read Superman and are not sure which of the two lines to go with, go with the other, at least Volume one was superior to this is everyway.

Great work.
