    Action Comics #1077 delivers on so much in the Superman story and it's worth it solely for that alone- story, art, action, character beats. It would be nice if the Supergirl story was hitting on all cylinders and the Conner/ Kong story had any relevance whatsoever, but Superman has carried this book for over 85 years, so it's not surprising.

    This is the conclusion of act two, before the story shifts back to Earth for the big finale, and it continues to be a solid and entertaining tale with a fast pace and great visuals. Read Full Review

    This issue is the meat and potatoes I have been waiting for. A fantastic storyline with heart-racing action and incredible art, this issue is the best of the arc thus far. Read Full Review

    Action Comics #1077 is another excellent addition to the current story arc which really heightens the stakes for both Superman in The Phantom Zone and the people of Metropolis. I really cannot wait to see where this story goes from here, though I hope it's resolution involves Conner Kent and Kong Keenan. Read Full Review

    Lyles Movie Files - Jeffrey Lyles Nov 28, 2024

    This arc seems like it's nearing its conclusion. As it's eight chapters in, that's a wise choice instead of letting it drag on to a limp and meaningless conclusion. Read Full Review

    AIPT - Collier Jennings Nov 29, 2024

    Action Comics #1077 is packed full of intense action sequences, but also carries a story that's true to the core of Superman. Now as he races back to Earth, Superman has another Herculean task ahead of him. I have faith Waid and Henry will guide the Man of Steel through it. Read Full Review

    Supergirl Comic Box Commentary - Anj Dec 2, 2024

    But really this boils down to that one page. Will Tamaki leave it open-ended forcing the reader to decide? Or is there more to come? At least there is something for me to mull over! Here we are, chapter 8 of 10 behind us. Read Full Review
