About this ebook
What if baby Superman had crashed on the wrong side of the Iron Curtain and grew up to become Stalin's right-hand man? Alive with historical figures and a host of familiar superheroes, including Batman and Wonder Woman as you've never seen them before, this superb graphic novel takes the arms race and infuses it with the thrilling powers of Kryptonite.

Really an excellent read. I love the what if scenario in general, but when it's executed so perfectly I am blown away. From the whole premise and epic story (in which batman, green lantern and wonder woman all participate to great effort ) to the rather thought provoking epilog, this is a book worth buying and reading and re-reading.

Everyone recognizes Superman as one of the greatest American icons (right beside Captain America I believe), so seeing Superman (and many others) re-imagined with a Soviet twist became a nice breath of fresh air. The crazy, epic twist at the end is what really caught me off guard, and with that, I believe this is my favorite Superman tale ever.

Awesome Elseworlds story. I bought it when it first came out, again in the collection and now digitally. If your even a passing fan of Superman, this is worth the buy!
