Alex Ross

Basado en una Historia de Kevin Smith, quien no para de sorprendernos. Esta vez ha sido debido a que ha tomado para sí uno de los guiones que no llegaron a producirse y lo ha convertido en un comic. Ha sido escrito junto a Phil Hester con lustraciones de Jonathan Lau y portada de Alex Ross.

La obra maestra que lo cambió todo, en su formato original. El prólogo de Marvels, con el nacimiento de La Antorcha Humana Original, como sólo Kurt Busiek y Alex Ross podrían haber imaginado, junto con los extras creados para la ocasión por ambos autores.

When Superman debuted seventy-five years ago, it was not merely the beginning for one character, but for an entire genre. The phrase "super hero" had yet to be coined when ACTION COMICS #1 hit newsstands in 1938, but once Superman entered the scene, effortlessly lifting a car above his head on that first iconic cover, the character paved the way for each of the hundreds (if not thousands) of super-powered heroes written since.

Alex Ross and Paul Dini join forces to create an unusual look at the world''s greatest superhero and his attempt to improve the world. The book is as much illustrated prose as it is comic, with an emphasis on captions over word balloons.'
Alex Ross won the 1999 Eisner Award for Best Painter Interior Work for his work on this title
