Executive Action
Actually one of the better Armageddon annuals. I quite enjoyed seeing how Superman would deal with the world diplomatically. Although, some questions were raised in the book that I would have loved to see answered such as, "What happens if a country doesn't go along with Superman, would he use his strength to force the issue?" I don't think he would. However, he may imply. The stuff dealing with Guy Gardner, shows that writers had no idea what to do with him back in the day. I do not read GL corpse, but I hope he is being handled better. It is a cool issue, with only those few little flaws.
