Superman #21 review

Jon Kent and Damian Wayne wake up to learn Batman is missing. He left while the kids, Clark and Lois were sleeping, determined to find a connection between the milk of neighbour Cobb Branden’s cow, Bessie, and Jon’s super-arrested development. Before they can go and investigate, who should come calling but Cobb himself, and his […]

Superman #20 review

It’s a lovely spring day in Hamilton County. Jon Kent is seeing if he can fly. He can’t. Clark Kent is causing people to,look up, up in the sky as Superman. And Lois Lane Kent White Smith (long story) is getting used to being plain old Lois Lane Kent once more. Back Indoors, the […]

Super Sons #2 review

Superboy and Robin have some ‘splainin’ to do. They’ve been caught trying to break into Lexcorp by the man who would be Superman himself, Lex Luthor. Of course, Robin has a plan I didn’t say it was a nice plan. This is not the way to stoke the fires of a burgeoning friendship. Still, it […]

Super Sons #1 review,

It’s just another school day for Jon. He stands up for a kid being bullied and for his trouble becomes the target of an especially rough snowball fight. He could win this one easily, he has super strength and heat vision… but he has a secret identity to protect and more importantly, he doesn’t want […]

Superman Annual #1 review

Clark Kent fears he’s lost his touch. Things aren’t growing well at the Kent farm and this side of Kryptonite poisoning he’s not going to get instant green fingers. Who better to ask for answers than the embodiment of the plant world? Not that Superman gets a chance to call him as Swamp Thing shows up uninvited – […]

Superman #11 review

The destinies of Jon Kent and Damian Wayne are entwined by the relationship of their fathers. But the kids known as Superboy and Robin haven’t been getting along, something Superman and Batman realise has to be rectified if they’re to be allies and, better yet, friends. So it’s boot camp, superhero style. The boys are dumped in […]

Earth 2 Society #18 review

The Justice Society are doing a limbo dance after the Pandora Casket was opened. Something’s happened to their reality, making everything and everyone but them vanish. The outlines of buildings have been appearing, one or two members hear a voice counting down to some kind of ‘cohesion’… … and Sandman shades are attacking. At its […]

Superman #7 review

Jon, Lois and Clark Kent are off to the county fair. There are carnival rides, coconut shies, candy floss, prize cows… and crooks. Which is a bit of a bugger, as Clark has promised to keep Superman under wraps for the night. Lois, meanwhile, is getting to know the editor of the local rag, while […]

Action Comics #962 review

And just as it risks going on too long, Superman’s battle against Doomsday concludes. After several issues of back and forth, with Superman perturbed to find this Doomsday can think strategically, I was beginning to wonder how things would end. But end they do, as Superman lures the monster to his Fortress of Solitude. For […]

Superman/Wonder Woman #29 review

Superman, Wonder Woman and Batman have caught up with the energy avatar Superman whose combination of zeal and confusion has seen him kill people who got in his way. They need to shut him down. In Colorado, the older Superman, strange refugee from another planet, ensconces wife Lois and son Jon in his secret fortress. […]
