I'd rather have narration than no narration however as a lot of modern books are either confusing due to the lack of information or just too thin a read.<br /><br />I'm on the fence as to whether to but this Superman as while I'm very fond of that whole era it just isn't Superman without Curt Swans distinctive style. Even back in the day when you got fill in artists like Ed Hannigan or Rich Buckler I found it hard to get involved with Superman, Swan really did bring that character to life for me and to this day it's a treat to find an issue I haven't read and just soak it up.<br />Still, I think Ed Baretto is a good choice thinking on it, I liked his 80s Supergirl a lot and his Teen Titans run is decent. Like Chris Marrinan on Wonder Woman he had a bad act to follow as once you've been fed a steady diet of George Perez' work most other artists work is going to suffer by comparison!Dave Mullennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6392489189136721402.post-88285541763023995382011-07-28T19:30:01.446+01:002011-07-28T19:30:01.446+01:00Hi Bob, I'm good with first person, I'm fi...Hi Bob, I'm good with first person, I'm fine with third - it's only second that gets my goat.

Granted, it's all fiction, but first-person narration always adds an extra layer of unreality for me, as if the characters telling the story may be exaggerating or lying to build themselves up. An omniscient third-person narrator "feels" more trustworthy and believable to me.Bob Buethehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04624148139233566430noreply@blogger.com
