Not Bad
For the first real Superman origin, it holds out well. I like the first encounter with Superman and Batman, and how Lois risks her life to get an interview with Superman. The "relationship between Lex and Lois isn't bad either. I just have two problems with this origin, but they're nitpicks. I wish they showed WHY Clark would want to use his powers to help people and the fight between Superman and Bizarro ends badly. But other that's that, I enjoyed this.
