Some time ago, I complained that the major comics companies weren't producing child friendly titles with familiar characters, that the rare limited run titles were so dumbed down that it was an insult to the characters. And then DC Comics introduced DC Zoom, an imprint specifically for young readers. These titles usually feature young versions of the heroes. This particular book is a young Clark Kent, just beginning to explore his role as Superman. His concerns are more than just those of the standard kid. He fights villains, faces killer robots. These conflicts are easily resolved and pose no real danger. This book isn't exactly what I wanted but it's a start.
