    This guy. Eminates confidence as an older, grizzled Superman still stoic in his beliefs and resolves.

    2nd place would be this laughing stock who embodies nothing of the afformentioned or other incarnations that Superman stands for. Only because hes a riot to watch on screen.

    @nerevarine_11: The best part of he saying that is that his simbol means hope in kriptonian, he's a guy saying there is no hope while with a big "HOPE" written in his chest.

    I know. I feel like that was intentional.

    Hes supposed to be a satirical parody of everything Superman stands for.

    He's like the "Captain Hail Hydra" of DC. "there is no hope! *break necks* ohh the humanity!"

    Also I forgot, my favorite superman is Kingdom come.

    @bluehope: Yeah it sucks what they did to Cap. Nick Spencer thrives on controversy just like Zack Snyder, but the Hail Hydra memes have never been funnier.

    @eto: That's All Star Superman written by Grant Morrison from the All Star Superman series. I highly recommend it, it's the quintessential Superman story.

    Aah thanks man :D.

    I will definitely check it out.

    Btw, this is off topic, but I'm (currently) more excited for Superman comics than Batman. haha it's so weird for me, since I never cared for Supes and now somehow I do! (I buy Superman & Action comics, not reading Batman now, it used to be the opposite lol)

    Can't wait for Multiplicity and Reborn, Superman is gonna shine in 2017 man. just wait for it. Also can't wait for Supersons...

    Aah can't handle all this hype.

    Well then, if we're talking about minor versions, beware, almighty DC rule 63 (also known as Earth 11).

    Not favorite, per se, listed them already above, but I'm kinda curious about this world ;)

    Quite possibly Superman's greatest feat. Destroying or lifting planets is easy compared to giving strength to someone who felt like they couldn't carry on. Resonated on a personal level for me and cemented The Big Blue Boy Scout as the greatest hero in comics for me.

    Just to add to @lvenger's post about why this mini series was so amazing...

    Overman or Red Son Superman (I won't count the Supermen that could be a possible future Superman, like All Star Superman and KC Superman).

    Ooops thought i answered this but turns out was on the wrong thread lol.

    Kingdom Come.

    The superman working on the farm and chilling what I would have loved to see is him and Wonder women and Bruce explore space with the kids.

    To take a break from humanity for a time.

    • Red Son

    I don't count All-Star because he is essentially a well-written mainstream Superman.

    And controversial opinion here...KC Superman isn't that great.

    @ecstaticgrace: his one shot comic was fantastic. The best of the bunch IMO. He is a Superman that my people need more than ever.
