I've noticed some of the best Superman stories start by letting you know Superman is going to die, that's the case with this one, and it was probably at least as good as All Star Superman

it's generally Moore's schtick to write stories where the hero doesn't really "win" in the end, that's what makes them compelling
1. Read Miracleman.

2. Read Miracleman.

3. Recently got the TPB of "Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow" which includes his other Superman story "For the Man Who Has Everything".

4. Read Miracleman.
