## Resource

Grant Morrison and Frank Quitely’s All-Star Superman is considered to be one of the best stories about the Man of Steel and will be the inspiration for the upcoming Superman movie from James Gunn. However sometimes the art and writing can be a bit polarizing for some fans. Josh and BComp dive into the mini-series to figure it all out and why Superman still works after eight decades.
