_Superman: Birthright_, Mark Waid, Leinil Francis Yu
GL clearly wanted to be broad and sweeping and epic and crowning-moment-of-awesome... and was crowded and blurred and failed to tell a story. If you didn't already care about these characters, there's nothing there to inspire it.
Yet another Superman origin story; this one more influenced by the movie, and occasionally trying to nod to it and distance itself at the same time. Not so good. Young Clark comes off as whiny and self-righteous; reporter Clark isn't much of anything, and Supes himself is kinda clueless. Also, the power levels for Lex's machinations are ramped up way way way too high too fast.
