I've not read All-Star yet, but I keep getting it recommended to me. Thanks!

    All-Star is what made me change my mind on Superman. I never really liked him when I was younger, and it was for all the same complaints that people have already listed above. But All-Star was a blast to read, not in spite of it's (at times) cheesiness, but because of it. All-Star Superman is relatable because he embodies the best traits in all of us; he is incredibly intelligent and kind, leveled and patient. Without going into spoilers, I think what I love most about All-Star is that it shows that even the best among us have our weaknesses, and that it's not the huge, planet-level threats that define who are and what we do, but the small, innocuous things that can most affect who we are in the moment.
