Okay, this was actually pretty good. Some big plot-holes, but that's almost a standard in the monthly-release format (especially after this many decades), and I'll forgive that.

Mmmm... Not bad, but also not great. I actually enjoyed the "filler" stories at the end more than the main story arc. Not sure if I'll keep or donate this one yet.

Ended more abruptly than I remember, but I think it definitely benefits from a second read though.

A re-read of an excellent story. I want to see how it's aged for me.

This apparently acts as a prequel to an animated movie that I haven't seen. So I don't really know how it relates to that. But, as a stand-alone story it's not too bad. Not great and essential reading, but not bad.
It's kind of Elseworlds-like, but doesn't carry that official branding (DC's label for non-canonical, alternative version stories). You get a chapter each for the quick origins of Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman; and then a few chapters on their combined story, narrated by a very skeptical Lois Lane.
It's definitely a darker version of each character, which is interesting, but explores a lot of the regular themes of "gods amongst men".

I'm four chapters in and, I have to be honest, all this repeated "redacted" is getting quite annoying. The pay-off better be soon and/or worth it.

Interesting. Great plethora of artists and styles. It certainly didn't feel like a media tie-in; it had a story to tell and it told it independently and well. ...but now I wonder what the album's like?

I have no idea what album this ties in with, but it seemed interesting.
