A good breather after the last two issues, focusing on some Booster Gold backstory. The action is good, the story is informative, and the visuals are outstanding. “Booster Shot” continues to be an engaging story of Superman's error in trying to see his past. Read Full Review

This arc has deftly changed focus from Superman to Booster while retaining the theme of fathers. Not only is Superman still troubled with Jor-El's fate, but Booster is brought face to face with a father he wants no more of. Couple that with Lois trying to save her father from a firing squad and Superman's empathy with Booster's mom as a parent, there's a lot of interesting and diverse thematic elements in this issue. And, let's not forget that Booster himself is the father of Rip Hunter. (Does he even remember that?) Well, done! Read Full Review

For Booster and Superman, the ride isnt over yet and Im anticipating what Jurgens and Booth have coming their way next issue. At this point, its safe to count on Jurgens to continue delivering strong arcs on Action Comics and this remains one of the most fun books going in DC today. Read Full Review

As the title marches towards 1000, it hasn't been this good in a long time. Read Full Review

At times the action felt frenetic and chaotic, but Booster Gold is what made this issue interesting. Read Full Review

Action Comics #995 was another fun read and Dan Jurgens is once again kicking goals on his Superman run with some great characterisation and fun stories. He has a knack of getting into the mindset of both Superman and Booster to which the later he created and Im eager to see where all this time jumping is heading besides Action Comics #1000!

So I liked this chapter better. I liked this deeper look at Booster. But there was a lot of Booster here. And the lingering questions about the splinter timeline isn't really mentioned at all. The art is definitely a plus! Read Full Review

Throughout Booster Shot, both Superman and Booster Gold have seen the harm time travel can cause if left unchecked. Superman has seen the alternate history of Krypton with added baggage and Booster has gotten a necessary character development through a chapter that focuses on his side of what time travel and family history mean to a hero that you think you know. Booster Shot as a story arc keeps us the continuation of being a superheroic fun romp through time that continues the aftermath quest of Superman and his search for answers. Booth, Rapmund, Dalhouse, and Leigh bring a more stylized and action-oriented change of pace to the issue and that's just the beginning as the duo's time travel troubles only seem to be mounting given the final page… Read Full Review

Action Comics has been pretty damn good for a while now and the current arc is an entertaining one with a much more comedic feel to it which, to be honest, is something DC really needs. The themes being explored are still dramatic and potentially world-ending, but it all seems so much lighter than some of the previous stories that it ends up still feeling fresh. I would personally like to see Booster Gold stick around after this plot resolves, but only if they can find a team willing to keep him fun without turning him back into a joke character.

Artists Brett Booth and Norm Rapmund make a great team. The art reminded me somewhat of Jim Lee's work, but not so much so as to appear an imitation. Read Full Review

I've had a real blast reading this time travel arc featuring Booster Gold so far, and I'm really intrigued to see where Jurgens takes these two characters following the shocking reveal at the end of the issue. However I really hope that the troubled Superman will find answers regarding Jor-El's survival soon, as I'm getting the niggling feeling that the mysteries revealed in The Oz Effect will be left unanswered" Read Full Review

Action Comics #995 brought this story back into my good graces. While it is a little disappointing that it hasnt concluded, and the story feels a little meandering at times, its focus on character histories and development makes it a book worth reading. Plus, Booth, Rapmund, and Dalhouse make it a great-looking comic. I recommend this one. Pick it up. Read Full Review

A good issue, though the time travelling zaniness is wearing thin. Read Full Review

In many ways, Action Comics #995 feels like a throwback to the way that comics were two decades ago. Dan Jurgens' approach to writing Superman and Booster Gold doesn't seem to have evolved too much in the last twenty years, although Superman is uncharacteristically angry with Booster. Read Full Review

Where this arc started out really cool, it has quickly become just a retelling of Booster Gold's origin and if you're not that familiar with the character than maybe you could dig this, but if you are....... Well, there really isn't much going on here.  Just Booster Gold and Superman taking jaunts around time. Read Full Review

The latest destination in this haphazard cross-time caper turns this issue into a Booster Gold comic featuring Superman, rather than the other way around. The real purpose of the issue seems to be telling a revised version of Booster's origin, one in which his criminal activity is no longer a product of his own flaws, but those of his father. This takes a character whose defining characteristic has become growth, and undercut the journey he's been on. Unfortunately, the art also distracts from the story. Read Full Review

In short, this issue is muddled and not particularly satisfying for me, with Booth's ill-fitting art combining with a sudden focus on the guest-star and less-than-subtle plotting to make things just sort of okay. Read Full Review

Art is sooo good. Story is fine but not perfect. This magazine is enjoyable with arts and story.

Again, a step up from last issue and the artist's change really is the major reason for it. The detailed style fits the story more than the more scratchy one from Jurgens. The adventure in time with Booster Gold keeps going on and is more at home in the era it's set at compared to being on Krypton's warped past. Supe's attitute is a bit unsettling though. His anger feels at the wrong place and not completely justified. I get that this is mostly a Booster story, but I barely recognize the man of steel since Oz's revelation...which kinda makes sens when you think of it. I'd like the Lois Lane arc to go a little faster too because it really feels like it's there for no reason. We'll probably see soon enough.

Like the last issue a good Booster Gold Story but no so much for Superman.
I liked that superman cool down & see good in Booster. Like reading him tell he would be mad to lose Jon.
But I fill like a transition's issue more than a real story than I will remember deeply.
For now superman didn't success to do so.

Cover - Nice & well connected to what I read inside 2/2
Writing - Well I'm a little disappointed 2.5/3
Arts - I like Booth & he do very good. 3/3
Feelings - I'm a little tired, and seen Zod once more at the end didn't cheer me up. 0/2

I am really sure that I would have liked this quite more if it wasn't drawn by Booth. The story was fine, but it was more of a retelling of Booster's origin, without the plot not moving too much.

Boring, I hate read comic for obrigation to understand the history.
