ahhh thank you i'm glad you enjoyed it!

okay, to be completely honest, my love of superman comes mostly from the DCAU too, plus a lot of time spent thinking about how cool an idea he is?

(also i'm assuming you've already seen the 1978 Superman movie, yeah? Because if you haven't, WATCH IT it's really fantastic.)

For actual comics recs... What's so Funny About Truth, Justice, and the American Way? It was recently made into an animated movie, which you may or may not have seen (and so it's the first thing off the top of my head just now). I thought it was a pretty great adaptation, but it's been a long time since I've read this one so I can't say which I think is actually better.

Similarly, For the Man Who Has Everything has an amazing adaptation (in this case, in the JLU animated series). Possibly unpopular opinion: while the art is better in the original, I actually like the episode more. Still, even if you've seen the episode, you should definitely read this one. Probably my favorite Superman story of all time.

All-Star Superman you will probably see on like literally every rec list out there. That is for a reason.

Superman: Peace on Earth is pretty good, and if nothing else provides something to smack people over the head with when they're getting all “but why doesn't he solve world hunger, huh? Huh???”

There's also some pretty great stories in Silver Age comics – as often as those tend towards silliness and everyone being terrible people, there's some really good ones in there, too.

Also, like, any issue of the JLU tie-in comic with him.

Give me more than the five minutes I just took and I can come up with more, but I've got a lot of homework this week and I really gotta get back to that. Glad you're liking the tag!
