Action Comics and Superman:
Action Comics and Superman follow the tale of Superman, Krypton?s last son. The stories center on Superman and his larger than life tales, saving Earth time and again. Also included is a look into Clark Kent?s personal life with wife Lois Lane and his work at The Daily Planet.

Superman is a near omnipotent character that is good by nature, often referred to as having a, ?boy scout attitude.? Superman looks for the good in humanity and serves to protect the earth and its inhabitants.
All Star Superman:
All Star Superman is a retelling of the Superman story. It will often take the basics of the stories and characters and generally doesn?t concern itself with the continuity and history of the characters. This series focuses on a Superman that has become super irradiated by a trip to the sun and discovers that he is dying. He works to foil the efforts of Lex Luthor and save the Earth at the same time. In this comic, he and Lois are not married. The All Star line is intended as a great place for newcomers to jump in on the character.
