    This was an enjoyable milestone issue of Action Comics. Superman fans who haven't given this creative team a try should strongly reconsider. It's got a great mix of character, action and creative story beats to fully justify giving it a chance. Read Full Review

    Bogdanove's art could often be divisive in the 90s, but it looks great here. Read Full Review

    AIPT - Collier Jennings Nov 14, 2024

    Action Comics #1075 showcases the variety the Superman family has to offer, ranging from sci-fi epics to personal history. It also makes some big changes, but then again this is the Superman comic, so I'm glad creators are still swinging for the fences. Read Full Review

    The Aspiring Kryptonian - David Beasley Nov 13, 2024

    For a milestone issue, Action Comics #1075 doesn't have much fanfare. Just another chapter in the ongoing story, which isn't necessarily bad but is a bit disappointing. Clark's aside to Krypton's past gets a substantial connection to what's happening with The Phantom Zone, but Conner and Kenan's tale (albeit fun to read) feels more and more disjointed from the main story with each installment. Supergirl's story is also starting to feel too drawn out but still has the potential to pick up more traction. Still, I'm very excited to see where things are going and can't wait for next week's issue. Read Full Review

    Supergirl Comic Box Commentary - Anj Nov 18, 2024

    Shame we are wasting Patridge's art. This artistic theme of splash pages with circular centers (suns, eyes, staff heads, eyeglasses) bookends every chapter but it doesn't add much. Read Full Review
