Cosmic

This book is a must for those who could not collect all of the Worlds at War books separately, and those enjoy cosmic type villains who give the heroes a run for their money should collect this collection of fine tales.

A Little Choppy, but pretty good overall

This was a nice long read and it keeps you wanting to read for the most part. There are some really good parts and only one part which was horrible and could be removed from the book and not effect it at all. The Sgt. Rock was one of the better parts as was Krypto's brief chapter in the story. A good read and worth the money plenty of pages in this thing.

Excellent Massive Superman Volume

First I want to say that I wish more Graphic Novel collections were this thick and not just reserved for the Essential/Showcase B/W editions. More bang for the buck. This excellent volume is a long but interesting story with many poignant moments, from actual quotes of key figures in points of history to the appearances of key characters in the DC universe, the best being Sgt Rock. A character better served than Marvel's Nick Fury. A must have for anyone's comic collection that is exciting and historically informative as well.

Hefty read, but worth it.

Collects: Superman 171-173 Man of Steel 115-117 Adventures of Superman 593-595 Action Comics 780-782 Supergirl 59 JLA: Our Worlds At War 1 Wonder Woman 172-173 Young Justice 36 Impulse 77 Superboy 91 Worlds Finest: Our Worlds At War 1 Very large collection of comics, but a very interesting read. I originally read only a small portion of this entire story, mostly the Superman and Superboy titles, and I'm very glad to have read the entire story, front to back. I love McGuinness' artwork, as well as Pascual Ferry's. The writing was fairly good too, not too many complaints there. The reader gets to see this huge war from many different perspectives...from Superman's, to Wonder Woman's, to Perry White's, to Young Justice's. I was kinda surprised that there wasn't much of a Batman presence in this story. Batman was supposedly protecting Gotham from the attacks, but none of it is ever shown. All-in-all, I enjoyed this story and highly recommend it to any Superman or DC Comics fan.
