Grant Morrison in Rolling Stone:

You’re about to relaunch Action Comics, DC Comics’ longest-running title. Will your revamp of Superman be as major as John Byrne’s back in 1986?

Yeah, possibly. Probably as much, although he changed things quite considerably. I’m not using the costumes, just jeans and t-shirt, a Bruce Springsteen Superman. The original champion of the repressed Superman, the socialism and stuff, I wanted a bit of that.

And like that, Grant Morrison once again managed to get me interested in the most boring superhero.
