  Too often, I read comic omnibuses that contain wonderful artwork and fabulous action sequences...but excessive profanity and quite a few sexual references.
  
  This one was not that way.
  
  As clean as the show that inspired it, this collection of Superman comics was good, clean fun, featuring some of the iconic villains from the '90's cartoon, including Mxyzptlk. If you've already seen Superman: The Animated Series in its entirety, and want more of everyone's favorite Kryptonian, this is for you.

  Fun weekend read, much in the vein of the animated series which it was based off.

  Superman from TAS might be my favorite Superman. They just did a darn-good job of writing both Supes and Clark while still telling action-packed stories that kept you on the edge of your seat--and even made you think from time to time. Pretty advanced for a kids' cartoon, and just plain AWESOME. I think I'd read these stories in prior collections, but I loved re-reading them again. (Plus... a Mxy story! What more could I want?)

  Good but average collection of stories inspired by the late 90's animated series. The finale has a sort of an unfortunate 9/11 parallel (there's a scene with a body falling from a crumbling skyscraper) with Supes initially taking on a squad of bomb-wielding terrorists in the city.
