In the latest Superman Homepage Member Poll we asked you the following question:
What is your favorite Superman novel of all time?
I can’t disagree with fans choosing “The Death and Life of Superman” by Roger Stern as their favorite Superman novel of all time. It was the one that got me seriously interested in Superman back in the 1990s. Good to see Elliot S! Maggin’s two novels in second and third place too.

Steve, I’m afraid to say that Elliott Maggin did not write Kingdom Come. Mark Waid did. However, Maggin DID write a forward in a later edition of the book. I checked my own graphic novel just to make sure.
