I've been watching the second series of the Grant-Gustin starring 'The Flash' TV series, and they've introduced the concept of the multiverse: the concept of worlds alike, but slightly different, than our own separated by a slice of reality.

This is one of the cases where that idea came from - in this, we have evil counterparts of <quote>Earth's Mightiests Heroes<unquote> Batman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern and Superman who are the 'Crime Syndicate of Amerika' (note the 'k'), with the JLA (that's the Justice League of America) travelling between realms when the good Alexander Luthor (i.e. the good counterpart of 'our' Earths evil Lex Luthor) finds a way of traveling between realms and looks for their aide in his constant battle against the CSA.

And if that all sound confusing, trust me: it is.

I really enjoyed the film, i wouldnt say it is the best film but compared to the rest of the DC train wreck it was brilliant. I enjoyed the look of her home land and how the character development with the rest of her people, The whole film was very uplifting and action packed with the rocking wonder woman music.
I enjoyed it but would not rush to rewatch it, it was also a bit on the long dragged out side of life, to the point where my wife made me jump (Scared the chris cringle out of me in the cinema) as she woke up from being put to sleep at the end.

It's funny, but while - like, I'm sure, most people out there - I may know (of) the origin of the Man of Steel, I've never actually seeing it written down anywhere.

Thinking about it, I think that knowledge comes from the Christopher Reeve Superman films, and the more recent TV series Smallville.

That TV series was still running when this graphic novel series was released.

This goes back to Superman's earliest days in Metropolis, with a brief flash-back to his high school Smallville days, to present a new take on the origin of the character - Jimmy Olsen? Check. Ma and Pa Kent? Check. Perry White? Check. Lois Lane? Check. Lex Luthor? Also check!

As such, I found this an interesting take on the character, with some dynamic action sequences and some stand-out visuals (Clark Kent soaring over a herd of stampeding Zebra's, for instance).
