    Superman has to stop meteoroids from hitting the earth, not worry about who took the cookies from the cookie jar :P

    JK, I dunno. Maybe someone else knows.

    Try Morrison's Action run, he tries his hands there. Supes hasn't had much crime stories since he departed from the Golden Age though.

    You mean a detective story or Superman versus street level crime like thugs and the mafia.

    @squalleon: Yeah, one of the issues deals with Supes vs a Child Molester. It was, like most of Morrison's run, a good concept, but felt rushed and skipped through.

    Are you sure you are answering to me? Considering I didn't ask anything or commented on something.

    Do you mean issue 0? Because issue 0 had to do with a child abuser, not molester. And while I disagree that Morrison's run was "rushed", I am obligated to advice you to give it another chance since it is the best N52-Superman story yet. Maybe if you read it on a trade you might wanna like it more, since the order of the comics changed to make it more reader-friendly. As for issue 0, it is a great issue, I am actually surpriced you decide to skip it, maybe thats the reason you disliked it.

    • SUPERMAN: THE GOLDEN AGE OMNIBUS VOL. 1 The first stories of Superman. Superman vs corrupt businessmen,politicians and gangsters. Its worth your money.
    • Fleischer's superman cartoon, you can find every episode on youtube.
    • Grant Morrison's Action Comics has instances were Superman fights police men and takes on the organized crime.
    • Superman: Lost Hearts is a mystery story that Clark tries to solve.

    @squalleon: Nah, loved number 0. I think that and Action Comics # 29 are my favorite N52 issues (I mean in general, not just Superman). Superman inspired hope and proved that we're all capable of heroics.

    I mean AC#10. As far as Morrison's run, I didn't like All-Star Superman either so im not shocked i couldn't enjoy his AC. I have all 19 of his AC books, dont need trade.

    • 0_o Ok...
    • The order of the books in the trade is different, maybe you would enjoy it more in that order, there is no need to buy it, just try to find the order they put it. And I am actually surpised people don't like the first arc of AC.
