In 1972, Bob Haney created a What If series for World's Finest, The Super-sons. In the future, DC comios would have their Otherworlds series of books. But in the sixties and the seventies, DC had Imaginary stories. In the 1970's, comics were simpler..There were no multi issue storylines nor crossover books
The idea of the Super sons roots had a basis in DC's comics Hawk and the Dove comic series. The idea of two brothers who had two methods in fighting crime. Here is also a generation ... Read More

However, that's not the case; only one very short story is reprinted from the Elseworlds Giant. The shallow "generation gap" 70's stories are pretty much, if you've read one you've read them all and make for very repetitive reading. I feel pretty ... Read More

I remember loving these issues as a kid. The thought of Batman and Superman having kids and the kids not being perfect certainly hit home to a fat, shy teenager trying to fit in. I was excited about the chance to read them again. While the stories are still good, the dated dialog (nothing is more painful then adults trying to write hip) is tough to get past. I also would have liked an introduction or something that talked about why and how these stories were thought up. Some background would have been nice. ... Read More
