OverallThis is an intriguing fourth issue that introduces a classic Superman character in a completely new context. The addition of the Omega Men to the plot provides a fascinating counterpoint to the main villains, and I'm excited to learn more in the upcoming issues. Read Full Review

With forces maneuvering, Kryptons last son hits readers with a very thought provoking issue. Aaron pens a tale of drive hidden behind the action. Sandoval and Arreola lock in on the viewpoint of Lois as the latest chapter moves forward. Readers had better brace for what lies on the last page. Dont miss it! Read Full Review

Four issues in, Absolute Superman takes time to flesh out the characters, their core concepts and everything this series is standing for, and it's amazing. Read Full Review

I absolutely (pun slightly intended) love how this part of the story is being woven. Having the perspectives avoid Superman's point-of-view let's us discover who he is along with everyone else and adds to his alienation of being alone on Earth. There's still so much we don't know about this Absolute Superman and it's a blast not knowing what to expect next. Read Full Review

Given how different the Absolute Universe is from the main DC Universe it means that core concepts will also be different. This includes what it means for Superman to represent hope for people. That's exactly what Jason Aaron and Rafa Sandoval explore through Absolute Superman #4. Read Full Review

Overall, Absolute Superman #4 is a thrilling and suspenseful installment in the series. It delivers on the promise of a high-stakes global adventure while also exploring the character of Superman in a new and compelling way. Read Full Review

With Absolute Superman #4, Jason Aaron and Rafa Sandoval continue to elevate the series by deepening the character of Lois Lane and reinforcing Superman's legacy as a hero for the powerless. Though the B-plot struggles to fully land, the issue excels in its thought-provoking themes and striking visual storytelling. This is a must-read for fans seeking a more layered and morally complex Superman story. Read Full Review

So I thought this was a solid issue. Not great. But we are still in world-building. Seeing Lois and Jimmy struggling is a nice way of trying to keep them recognizable. Sam Lane remains Sam Lane but that fear line was great. And the Lazarus Corp/Omega Men extremes being mirrors is another way of showing this is a dark Earth. And Sandoval is just crushing it. I just wish there was more Superman. Last issue was all Krypton. This mostly Lois. People will want to learn about this Superman. I need more. Read Full Review

The whole Absolute line is just (no pun intended) absolutely smashing it and Superman is the best book out of the 3 we already have. Character development abounds in this issue, a villain takes more prominence and we get the beginning of a budding friendship between Jimmy and Lois. Im excited to see where we go next (which if Im correct is back to Krypton!) This is a strong 4 out of 5. Just get rid of those nine panel grids! Read Full Review

Absolute Superman #4 is an interesting deconstruction of the new Superman that does the job of showing the audience how the world around the hero sees him. Read Full Review

Absolute Superman #4is a perfectly decent character-building issue that gives readers a better picture of Agent Lois Lane. Jason Aaron puts considerable thought into fleshing out the Absolute Earth's rival groups and Agent Lane's relationship with her father. That said, readers expecting a comic titled Absolute Superman to have Absolute Superman show up for more than a couple of pages will be sorely disappointed... again.5.5/10 Read Full Review

I still think that Absolute Superman is the best of the bunch. The new issue is engaging. I like the approach Superman-book-with-little-superman-on-it for now. The art is still excellent.

Absolute Superman is personally my favorite one out of the bunch. Jason Aaron, I would like to apologize to you for trash talking you during your last years in Marvel. Jason Aaron is a good writer, it just felt he was bored in Marvel since he wrote almost everything he wanted to write, and when he's with a fresh new slate he f*cking kills it.

Everything in the Absolute universe is really awesome. I'm enjoying all of the titles. I'm normally not a huge fan of Superman, as I feel like he is just too overpowered, and that there aren't any good stories with him anymore. Que Jason Aaron, Rafa Sandoval, and the Absolute universe. This new take is out at the right time, and it really feels like the Superman I want to route for. Jason Aarons story is great, the art continues to SLAY, and I love the layout of this book. I like when we meet the characters that we know, and see how they are different in this universe. I'm looking forward to many more amazing issues!

Check out several reviews on my Podcast/Streamcast."Lunchbreak Reviews".

Glad to see the Omega Men getting some run here.

Not my favorite issue of this run but still really enjoying it.
