Brian Azzarello and Lee Bermejo tell the story of Superman from the perspective of Lex Luthor. In this five-part series, Lex is a businessman who sees the hero as a threat to human potential, and Azzarello draws on his charm, vanity and self-justification as he plots against him, with Bermejo's heavily rendered art.
Readers who like villain-centered stories and morally gray takes on DC characters will find this a good fit. You see what it might look like to believe, sincerely, that Superman is bad for humanity, and see Gotham's and Metropolis's world from the other side.
Practical, outward-looking, growth-minded, clear-cut and escapist; an easy read.
Best for readers like The Curious Generalist. Which reader are you?
