Jun 15, 2026Anyways, this run continues to just shine brightly. Waid just gets Superman and Superboy. I love everything about this, especially Clark's flip-flop about his powers as he has a fun sort of week of sun and fun. And seriously, I have said it before, have Patridge do a Young Love Clark/Lana special! I'd buy it. Read Full Review

Jun 12, 2026Action Comics #1099 has great moments of characterization in what is another powerhouse issue. Clark dealing with the loss of his powers, trying to get them back and understanding how crucial his role in the DC Universe is makes for a great story. Next up is Action Comics #1100; a huge milestone for Superman and DC. I can't wait to see what Waid and the art team have in store for us. Read Full Review

Jun 10, 2026Clark Kent is in a race against time he can’t win in this latest chapter. Waid applies heavy weight as the time line starts to unravel.

Get Your Comic On - Luke Deckard
Jun 10, 2026With a few heartfelt moments scattered throughout, Action Comic #1099 solidifies my feeling that, since “Reign of the Superboys,” it is stumbling around, uncertain where it should go and how best to utilise its cast. Coupled with inaccurate synopsis errors, it might leave you asking: What is going on with DC’s editorial? Or are the Absolute titles getting all the focus at the expense of the rest? Read Full Review

Fun but sort of filler between set up and conclusion, even if Clark adapting to being normal was interesting.
But can't wait to see what is in Lewis Lang's book.+ Like • Comment -
