There are probably as many opinions on Superman as there are Superman fans. But hey, if the rest of 'em want to editorialize, let 'em get their own sites, right?

I'll be using this space to share my personal views on what Superman means to me, to America and to the world, and where I think the various incarnations of the Man of Steel have succeeded or failed over the years.

Also I'll share my recollections of the experiences I've had, both good and bad, as a fan of Superman for nearly three decades. If any part of this site really qualifies as the "Confessions of a Superman Fan," this is it.
