I'm a big sci-fi fan, but don't usually go in for superhero fiction, because the whole black-and-white red-white-and-blue thing is boring to me. But these stories weren't like that at all, and got into the gray zones I find intriguing. I took a chance with this one, but I'm glad I did!

Different for me... but I liked it!

These stories reminded me a lot of Kurt Busiek's "Astro City," both in their tone and form. Like those books, these stories deconstruct the superhero genre - embracing the trappings of the form (skintight costumes, silly villain names, etc) and imbuing them with a real world sensibility and darkness.

I particularly liked the sexual politics and gender roles at play in these stories.

To be clear, if you've never read anything but 70's era Superman books, these stories are not for you. But anyone who likes the work of Mark Millar, Kurt Busiek, or Warren Ellis should find these six stories a real treat.

Great superhero fiction

What disappointed you about Six Superhero Stories?

I found the stories predictable and deprived of real emotion

What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)

Indifference

Would you be willing to try another one of Craig Jessen’s performances?

Maybe in a non-fiction book.

If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Six Superhero Stories?

I think there is too much I would cut. I cannot decide.

Disappointing collection...
