    Got my preorder in last month. Can’t wait!

  4. mcbaker mcbaker says:

    I knew I should of waited…but those two reduce priced hardcovers became too tempting.

  5. jackietam jackietam says:

    I bet it took Quintely two months to draw this.

  6. s1lentslayer s1lentslayer says:

    Glad I waited. Er, am still waiting.

  7. cromulent cromulent says:

    That bit of cape between the legs is weird on my eyes. But everything else is teh awesome.

  8. can i get that image on one of those Mexican glass prayer candles? =p

    That’s great !!

  10. Bryce31 Bryce31 says:

    Looks like I’m gonna be out 100 dollars in october.

  11. In general not a fan of the format (impossible to read, delicate, feels more like an art object than a book) but this just shot to the top of my pile of books to buy. I have issue 10 framed page by page hanging from my wall.

    of recent, this is most deserving of the Absolute treatment

    I pre ordered mine the day Amazon offered it up. I can’t wait.

    That’s beautiful!

  15. odino1 odino1 says:

    Appropriate cover considering that All-Star Superman is clearly a superheroic adaptation of the life, death and resurrection of Jesus.

  16. Me wantee!!

  17. Yeah, that’s ugly and not at all awesome!

    Yay for positive sarcasm!

  18. WheelHands WheelHands says:

    Ooooohhh! Pretty!

  19. drakedangerz drakedangerz says:

    Yeah, I’ve had this pre-ordered since it was announced. This is just icing on the cake.

  20. patio patio says:

    Oh thank god! Life can go on!!!

    I’m sorry, I should keep stuff like this to myself. I’m sure it will be a big, beautiful collection. And admittedly, that is a great image for the cover. But I was enjoying the schadenfreude of watching fanboys suffer while DC deprived them of this gem.

    I’ve got 2 beautiful hardcovers, and I’m cool with them.

  22. Paul Montgomery PaulMontgomery (@fuzzytypewriter) says:

    I lent the first hardcover to a friend years ago and I’ve intentionally not asked after it in the hopes of this collection (never did get the second volume). 

  23. Gilgamesh417 Gilgamesh417 says:

    WOWWWWWWWWWW! I’ve got both hardcovers but this cover is NEARLY enough to make me want the absolute version. Morrison is responsible for keeping my love of Superman alive.

  24. Neb Neb says:

    I already have the hardcovers, but that is a very gorgeous image.  I may re-read these soon.

  25. I want to go to there!

    @WinTheWonderBoy

     

    my thoughts exactly! 

  27. mickmac59 mickmac59 says:

    Another one for the must buy pile – *sigh*

  28. Already have the hardcovers but this is a story that deserves the double-dip.

  29. SuperMoore SuperMoore says:

    I just got chills looking at the cover………..

  30. Rbigley Rbigley says:

    must have.

  31. A few issues into this story, I just knew this had to be Absoluted. Between this, the Johns/Frank stories, What Ever Happened… and the ONLY A+ thing Millar has ever done (Red Son) my library feels complete of the only Superman stories I’ll ever care to read again. I’m dying to see the extras.

  32. Mangaman Mangaman says:

    @WinTheWonderboy: Meh, I’ll wait for the variant where he’s crucified.

  33. Paradiddle Paradiddle says:

    Now I know what I’m buying myself for Christmas.

  34. NathanNicdao NathanNicdao says:

    I nominate JLA: Year One for Absolute!

    Cover looks awesome, BTW. Sort of thing you can display and ask advice from.

  35. ErronSF ErronSF says:

    Incredible, evocative, mind blowing art!! Amazing in that it almost makes you feel an emotion when looking at it. Quitely brought his A-game on this one.

  36. Cedric Cedric says:

    Hello, new Golden Calf!

  37. I…I love you, Frank Quitely…
