All-Star Superman #5

All-Star Superman #5
This issue was the closest thing I've seen to a perfect comic in a long, long time. The attention to detail is astounding, fanboy moments abound, the writing is EXCELLENT, the story is EXCELLENT, the art is freaking fantastically EXCELLENT, and we actually get some forward momentum going on the Superman dying subplot (sub-sub-subplot!) that was introduced all the way back in issue #1. EXCELLENT. This title frequently succeeds in so many ways that the other Superman titles have failed in the past, ie: "For Tomorrow" and "Godfall", among others. An EXCELLENT issue.
