Summary: interesting
Review: I'm not much of a DC fan and I am a big fan of Marvel, so I thought that this would be interesting, getting to see Stan Lee "create" the classic DC characters. And it was interesting if not great. I think he did a great job with Batman, though he's the one DC character that needs no tweaking. The Wonder Woman story was pretty interesting, though not something I'd want to see a whole lot of (though certainly better than her original version). His Superman was weak. There isn't a whole lot you can do to change Superman, so Stan Lee was sort of doomed from the start. His Green Lantern was basically Silver Surfer. Beside what can you do with Green Lantern. It was all very interesting though.

Summary: The Last of Old School Comics....
Review: Remember when comics were the stuff that dreams were made of? When the writing and the artwork were very good? When they actually made deadlines to get the books out on time? When there was no Internet and comics captured your imagination? Well this book is it. The last time we will see comics done in this way. Fun, easy to read, and makes you want to read them again. We will never see comics like this again, and that's sad.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Stan shows DC how to do comics right.
Review: Stan's take on all the DC heroes was so much better and more creative then the main DC books are. DC should drop the current DC versions and put Stan's versions of the characters in their place.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: I need negative stars
Review: This is the second graphic novel I've needed negative stars to adequately express my feelings for in the last two months. I really was taken aback by Stan Lee's writing. "He created my favorite comic superhero, Spider-man, how bad could this be?" was my thought when I bought this. The story lines are really bad. I guess the best way to describe it would be to compare the stories to the mostly bad 70's comics. This isn't something that I'll ever reread due to the poorly written stories which is a shame since I respect most of Stan Lee's work. My true review of this would be about negative 2 stars. I hated it but I didn't throw it away which I was very tempted to do with Frank Miller's DK2 travesty.
