John Bryne's run on Superman lasted two years but it has taken D.C. over 10 Years to collect it. Now at last after a wait of almost three years since Volume 8, is the conclusion.This volume is bargain priced at under $20 for a 280 page thick book. The format is similar in paper stock to Marvel's Epic Collections. For whatever reason we get no page numbers. The quality printing is sharp and the colors are vibrant. Since Action Comics had become a Weekly Anthology series the Superman books where then demoted to Superman (the new Reboot) we get four issues here Superman #19-22 plus four issues of The Adventures Of Superman ( the former Superman title ) #441-444. Plus we get the oversized Superman Annual #2 and tie in comic Doom Patrol #10.The regular Superman book was written and illustrated by John Bryne while Adventures was written by Bryne and illustrated by Jerry Ordway from a plot by both. There is one exception to that with one Adventures solo written by Ordway with art by a third party.The Adventures of Superman (TAOS) #441 starts out with a whimsical funny story with Mister Mxyptlik.Superman #19 & TAOS # 442 is a two parter which introduces the villain Dreadnaught and guest stars the JLA. In this saga Bryne brings back the deceased Supergirl for the main back story running through this volume.Next up we get a two part crossover with the Kansas City version of Doom Patrol. This story runs in Doom Patrol #10 and Superman #20. The Doom Patrol issue is written by Paul Kupperberg and illustrated by the Dragon's Erik Larsen. Not sure the Doom Patrol issue needs to be collected here since Supes only appears in the final pages. But it does give you the villains background, but the Doom Patrol subplots might leave you perplexed and are unresolved here.Next up is TAOS #443. During this Man Of Steel run of Superman Bryne was involved in a whopping 68 Superman stories. But there were 14 stories in which Bryne had no input. This is one of them. Written by Ordway and illustrated by John Statema this is an overly wordy story about a lost alien race in the Far East.Next up is three part Supergirl Saga which ran in Superman #21, #22 and TAOS #444. It is a pretty great farewell story which features Lana Lang, Pete Ross, Lex Luther, Bruce Wayne, Hal Jordan, Oliver Queen and The Legion Of Superheroes all appear. The villains are General Zod and The Phantom Zone crew.Finally we wind up with oversized Superman Annual #2. It is from two creators who soon be involved in the next run on the book, Roger Stern and Ron Frenz. It is a fun story about Project Cadmus which features the Guardian and The Newsboy Legion. Bryne does a solo back up story with Maggie Sawyer. We also get 4 Who's Who pages.While I won't expend a bunch of Hyperbole and say this is the best run of Superman, I will say that when the two year run of John Byrne was coming out, it was the most excited I have ever been in the character. It is a fantastic run from start to finish and can now be in every fan's Library.
