Yea, I feel it was one of the stronger Superman elseworlds.
Granted they pretty much all end up with 'and then he becomes Superman in the end,' but this one earned it, and does a lot with the New Gods I liked, they're much more front-and-center than normal.
Probably not, but have you ever seen the suit he wore in Superman/Doomsday: Hunter/Prey? That was pretty badass too, and it's as close as I can think of to an example of what you are looking for.
Holy shit i was just thinking of this Elseworlds earlier this week. I was desperate to find the panel with that quote "The War will end when Destroyer becomes Savior" . One of the first Elseworlds i ever read and I loved it.
