However, I thought Waid's run, while obviously telling the same story (think of how irate people would be if significant changes were actually made), I thought he told it in a modern way, giving the whole story a very "Ultimate" feel, at least to me.
THANK YOU!
I completely agree with everything you posted but I just wanted to highlight this part. When you're dealing with an iconic character, just how radical can you get in retelling his origin before you alter the substance of Superman himself. I think the folks who wrote that abysmall movie treatment learned this the hard way.
