  Elliot S. Maggin's Superman: Last Son of Krypton
Maggin wrote Last Son prior to DC's revitalization of the Superman character, done in the 1980s with both the Crisis on Infinite Earths series and John Byrne's landmark Man of Steel limited series.
Last Son was probably more palatable for readers at the time it came out.
Perhaps Last Son would come across better if it was judged purely on its own merit, and not viewed through the prism of two decades of change in society and the comic book characters.

“Last Son of Krypton” explores the responsibility of power and the side-effects of universal good deeds through the super-powered adventures of Superman.
A“Last Son of Krypton” came out at the same time as the original “Superman: The Movie”, but other than a few fl-and-white stills in the center has nothing to do with the film.
