Summary: Great story
Comment: The story behind DC 1,000,000 is five star material. Morrison weaves a brilliant imaginative yarn about an intelligent star from the distant future, who envies our sun and wants to be the center of our solar system. This only scratches the surface of course, but I don't want to spoil it for you.
Unfortunately this trade paperback doesn't re-print some of the vital corssovers making for a rather confusing plot at some points. The story is still largely comprehensable, and quite good, but I had to dock it a star for this.

Summary: The Future is Now
Comment: The thing I like the most about this mini-series, artfully pulled together by Grant Morrison, is what it accomplishes. It makes Vandal Savage an enthralling villain, as he well should be. The Vandal Savage dialogue is enough alone for me, rife as it is with historical irony and the exacting precision of a very, very, very long lived being. The new possible distant future for the DC Universe is also fun, along with the open timeline policy established by the book Kingdom. Good stuff for fans of Superman, with its depiction of a long-lived Superman family dynasty, the likes of which boggle the imagination in its scope. Green Lantern fans will enjoy the padding Grant Morrison gives his overall plotline for his run of the JLA title by showing that Kyle Rayner has indeed come into his own. Ressurrection Man, a book DC never should have come close to canceling, is given a nice bookend here as we see where his life will go in the far flung future, and the resolution of his tale with Vandal Savage. Batman gets dragged kicking and screaming into this story, and that makes for some good stuff, too. Buy it if you love the possibilities the DC Universe holds. Shun it if you like characters to conform to very narrow definitions.

Summary: Bleah!
Comment: One can only hope that Mr. "Channeling Chekov" was being sarcastic; this is an incoherent mess that should never have been collected in its present form.
