i havn't been reading Action so how is Morrison doing right now? good, alright etc. etc.

bump

Action Comics? I've seen positive reviews for the most part.

I've enjoyed every issue thus far.

great, its good to know that grant still got it

I'm not reading the series, but I keep hearing good things about his writing on the book.

I liked the earlier issues better, but it is still one of the best New 52 titles I am reading

I've enjoyed every issue thus far.

It's decent, you should probably check it out if you're interested.

Its a good comic, but the series went in a very Morrison direction after its debut issue, which somewhat took away from the fresher characterization of Superman and the promised focus on action and characters instead of pseudo science babbling plot. The story got convoluted very quickly, though I`m used to Morrison`s writing so I wasn`t exactly confounded by it, but it certainly made the series kind of a mess. The series could additionally use a balanced focus on character and plot progression as each attempt to establish Superman`s past and origin has fallen flat. Also, after the first four issues the main arc was put on hold for two filler issues (which were fun but equally confusing) which only added to the feeling that the series has quickly has gotten of the rails. Don`t get me wrong, its a good (and oftentimes fun) comic but I wish that Morrison would focus on Superman more than an increasingly confusing plot.

Good run. I love Morrison's writing. I'm kinda not feeling the artworks though. I feel the bonus Steel segments have waaaaaaaaay better artworks than the main section.

It's alright. Nothing spectacular, but it's good.

Very good, Grant Morrison was born to write Superman, so the characterization is great but there are times when it gets Morrison with some weirdness particularly a random 2 issue legion of superheroes/origin arc in the middle of the origins arc, the art goes from great to mediocre to bad and back on a regular basis. The backups are solid work.

I always enjoy when he goes crazy with his non-linear mind.

It's alright. Nothing spectacular, but it's good.

To echo many other thoughts... it is certainly enjoyable. Good. Sometimes even great.

But to the Morrison standard of "epic scale mind blowing" that is usually associated... it isn't. It is Grant running a much more restrained work so far. (With an exception or two)

The good piece of that is that it has (and is less likely to have) alienated less readers who don't like the "Morrison crazy" style...

But then again:

I also have a fondness for when this happens.

i just want grant to come up with his "epic amazing stuff" he is capable of

@RedRider1 Recently it has gotten a lot more like the more epic amazing stuff he is capable of. It has been great and I am going to be sad when he leaves.

@RedRider1: Great, its my second favorite title right now

So if I loved his JLA run, but disliked his Batman RIP run...I should like this?

8 months ago I would have said absolutely. Today? I'd say... maybe. If you loved his JLA run and were at least okay with RIP, you should like this. If you disliked RIP... you might want to skip a beat or two. There is some really great stuff in this run... but I'd say it now falls between the range of JLA and RIP.
