Probably because Jon Kent is bisexual. Right-wing morons went crazy over it- and not in a good way.
Jon Kent arrives on an Earth he's never seen...the world of Injustice! While a Kal-El rules this world in seeming peace, why does everyone Jon meets fear the S symbol on his chest? And why is Batman public enemy number one? Jon has to pick a side, and the consequences make either choice a dangerous one!
Taylor and Henry have crafted a very strong arc for Jon Kent. With so many Super folks in Metropolis in Earth-Prime this almost feels like a better place and use for him especially since he's operating in a world so different from his own. Maybe if the book stays at this quality, DC might consider expanding it to an ongoing series? Read Full Review
This is the best issue of this new series so far, and Taylor does an excellent job of ramping up the tension in this multiversal adventure. Read Full Review
Adventures of Superman: Jon Kent #3 delivers an emotional tale that challenges its protagonist to learn and grow. Where it leaves off promises a lot, and I cant wait to see what Taylor and company have planned going forward. Read Full Review
Final ThoughtsAdventures of Superman: Jon Kent #3 continues the Countdown to Injustice story in grand fashion, as Jon tours Earth-49 and we get reacquainted with Superman, Wonder Woman, Flash and the other heroes of that Earth. Recommended. Read Full Review
Adventures Of Superman: Jon Kent #3 is a fun comic to read. Some fans groan at Taylor combining Jon and Injustice, but for fans willing to give it a chance this is a killer story. Henry, Belleaire, and Abbott are the key to all of this, as their art takes a good script and makes it fantastic. Read Full Review
Adventures of Superman: Jon Kent #3 begins the upcoming conflict of idealism taking on the harsh absolutism of the world of Injustice. It should be interesting to see how Jon reacts in the next issue and you wonder if this event might be what breaks him a little in his journey onward. So far, it's nice to see Jon's general positive outlook in his journey and how that guides him here will be truly interesting. Read Full Review
You'll enjoy Adventures of Superman: Jon Kent #3 thanks to the interesting character work and the impossible odds Jon Kent is facing. Often in superhero comics, it's fairly easy to guess how things will play out, but with the stakes so high and Jon seemingly all alone, this Injustice crossover couldn't be more exciting.

With a pretty good focus in the first two issues, things seem a bit more uncertain in the third installment here now that Ultraman is dead. What's Jon's purpose other than to see what a version of his father has created here? It's certainly educational on why he has to balance his involvement in the larger affairs of humanity but it feels like with Ultraman dealt with, the impetus for things has fallen apart and Jon is being sidetracked into something else. I'm curious to see where it goes because it riffs on my enjoyment of the Injustice universe and taps on the door in a different form here. I do like seeing the dynamics play out and Jon having to deal with a different Damian so there are areas to explore and a direction yet to be revealed. Read Full Review
An interesting story is frustrated by the larger plot. The art continues to be great though. Read Full Review
Lovely book. The pages are well designed out by Henry, pulling in and out of closeups and using negative space well. Read Full Review
Adventures of Superman: Jon Kent #3 marks the midway point of Taylor's final story for Jon Kent, and the plot is nowhere to be seen. Jon spends the issue listening, learning, and taking in the sights of the Injustice world, but at best, this issue is mostly conversations with great art. Read Full Review
Told with more wide open panels, familiar, MCU-style humor, and an embrace of superheroes as enforcers of the world as it is, Superman: Adventures of Jon Kent remains an utterly lifeless affair. Read Full Review
I really enjoyed this. I understand why some people might be frustrated with the sudden deviation from the Ultraman plot, but this storyline is super interesting to me. Seeing Jon explore the Injustice universe creates a compelling experience. Jon is faced with different versions of Damian, Bruce, and his father that are different, yet also the same. Plus, his realization at the end of the issue of what Clark is really like in this universe was very well-done, in my opinion.
A very good setup!
By the way, I've deduced when in the Injustice canon this takes place- But let me explain first.
-Lex Luthor dies in Injustice Ground Zero, so him being here means it is before that.
-Gotham is fully turned into a police state, so it's post Injustice year two
-Damian is tall, so Injustice year three is unlikely
-Superman has no yellow ring, so it's post year three
Therefore, it must be during Injustice year 4 or year 5. Likely not year 5, because of an obvious lack of villains working for superman, but also due to the lack of a yellow ring. My guess is late year 4 or early year 5.
Omg, those final pages.
Why are the panels SO wide. Love Clayton Henry's work though.
I’ve never cared for the Injustice universe, but inserting Jon Kent into it has really interesting potential that’s begun to develop in this issue. I love Jon Kent’s Superman series and wish it hadn’t been canceled, but even I can admit that his idealism could be a tad naive and heavy handed. This series offers some really interesting character development, though, as Jon sees a world that has achieved many of his goals, but at a horrible cost. I’m very interested to see where this goes, and wish it were more than 6 issues.
That being said, this issue is made up of huge panels with art that’s good, but doesn’t do much to drive the narrative forward. It would have been nice to slow the pace down and see Jon interact more
This book is actually very interesting and good. I'm interested in what happens next. Guess ppl just have a hate boner for tom taylor.
This is pretty good. I don't have a bad time reading it. I just don't care about what's happening. Not even in a negative way. I feel indifferent.

Theres no plot here, this is just an excuse for Taylor to play with his old toys.
