I have definitely enjoyed this side mission more that I thought I would. Some of that might be I wasn't grabbed by the main plotline. But Supergirl has shined in these two issues. And Superboy's reaction to Krypton was great as well. The art also worked incredibly well. Read Full Review

Comic Watch - Christian Laspada
Sep 09, 2026Action Comics #1102 is a strong return to form for Superman and an exciting second piece of the “Kingdom of Zod” puzzle. Mark Waid gives Clark a welcome homecoming that is equal parts triumphant and chaotic, while Montos delivers artwork that makes the inevitable Superman-versus-Zod spectacle feel appropriately massive.

Comical Opinions - Gabriel Hernandez
Sep 09, 2026Action Comics #1102 splits the issue (and the reader’s attention) when Superboy, Supergirl, and Ursa navigate Krypton of the past, and the Super-family reunites to ramp up their rescue efforts within Caldero in the present. Mark Waid’s script does a lot but accomplishes little, and the art team’s output is solid, albeit without a single wow moment to work with. Read Full Review

Comic Book Clique - Frank Jarome
Sep 14, 2026Action Comics #1102 is an okay issue that has its usual strong characterization, but it's bogged down by the increasingly ridiculous Kingdom of Zod crossover. I believe this title will start telling its own stories again next issue, and hopefully the young Superboy will soon be back in his own time so that we can experience more of his adventures there.

A transitional part of the story. Good, not great.
