Superman Homages by "serious" cartoonists

I love this forum and the Fortress in general. I have learned much from being a casual reader and get the sense that I have a lot in common with the other members here in terms of what is great about Superman. Some of my favorite tales include the "mourning stories" like
Superman Under a Red Sun
(Action 300) and Superman mythos/Krypton/Kandor stories like Supergirl &
The Fantastic Secret of Superbaby II
(Action 299 --where, incidentally, Telle the Kryptonian God of Wisdom appears). Jimmy Olsen is perhaps my favorite title.
As you can see, I'm very interested in the Weisinger era and its after-effects.
I am curious: are there other members who are also interested in contemporary homages or references to the mythos by other, generally non-superhero cartoonists? I'm thinking of Chris Ware's
Jimmy Corrigan
, Daniel Clowes'
David Boring
and Lloyd Llewellyn, etc. Jaime Hernandez (whose HR Costigan is an obvious Luthor clone) is another favorite --I loved his Marvel family story in Bizarro Comics and the new cover for Bizarro World. Does anyone here not like these comics?
This is basically my first post and I welcome feedback. Telle
