    While this is all leading up to another huge event that will eventually wipe out any continuity this was fun read and has excellent characterization and let's face it, the story is fun. Read Full Review

    All-Comic - Dan Leicht Feb 26, 2015

    There's just something about seeing Superman in a t-shirt and jeans that makes him appear even more of a heroic icon, I mean, he's wearing the same shirt I wore when I was ten for three days straight during a vacation at Myrtle Beach – it made me feel cool. I may not have had the beard back then, but I do now…and it's time to put that shirt back on…just…maybe a larger size now. Read Full Review

    The Latest Pull - Eric Tillirson Feb 28, 2015

    For anyone invested in the “Futures End” series, this is a pretty good issue with some good character bits. What's light on action is rewarding on character interaction. Read Full Review

    It's not the hardest-hitting issue ever, but it certainly is above average for Futures End. I'm almost certain this series cannot slow down after this. If it does, I'm going to rip every page of the past 40-something issues into tiny littlepieces and mail it to DC with a letter requesting a refund. Either that, or sell it on eBay. Read Full Review

    The New 52: Futures End #43 is setting the board for something big, but very little of note occurs in this issue. The art is relatively generic and doesn't compensate for the slow pace of the story, but I am still looking forward to when this series explodes and we get to see the the conflicts that have been brewing for so long.

    Weird Science - Eric Shea Feb 25, 2015

    We've got a whole huge story to tell with the final issues of Future End and somehow this issue uses the majority of it's pages to tell the least interesting stuff.  I don't get it, maybe they needed a filler issue but the important things in this story seem like they could have been addressed during a more important issue........ or at least one with a little more going on.  Even being let down though, I'm still excited about what this series will end with and I don't think that this will deter anyone who's still reading.  We're in for the long haul.

    Weekly Comic Book Review - Loukas Mar 5, 2015

    This issue is a morass of confusion mixed with moments of amusing clarity. The interesting and well-thought-out reflections on time travel cannot overcome the muddle of continuity and the opacity of plot. Andy MacDonald's art, with blurred details, fragile lines, and overwhelming shadows, contributes to the general lack of focus. It is as if everyone involved in the project momentarily let it slip from their grasp. Considering that we only have five issues to go, they had best re-assert their grip, and quickly.
