This is one of those Elseworlds that was published as just a one shot book, but finding it and reading it is still awesome. This takes H.G.Wells classic science fiction novel and moves the setting from 19th century England to a 20th century Metropolis, in which the Martians encounter a Golden Age Superman, who does not have access to the full range of powers he has in modern times. I'm not going to spoil the book for people, but it does come with some of the supporting characters that Superman had in the Golden Age, including Lois Lane, Jimmy Olsen, a red haired Lex Luthor (a la his first appearance), and Daily Star editor George Taylor, and the Star's chief reporter Perry White. I'm not going to go into more details, but anyone who reads this book will enjoy it immensely. To all who are following my blog, I thank you. Feel free to post comments.
