The INJUSTICE universe continues to hold interest for readers, and this 6-issue series has certainly renewed my interest in it, as well as solidified my interest in Jon Kent's continued development. As much as I enjoyed the issue, the mechanism for Jon getting back home is probably the low point, as it feels like a very convenient thing for Cyborg to have developed out of the blue.

The ending sets up the next DC event, as a fast-paced but ultimately strong series comes to an end. Read Full Review

I've enjoyed this series a lot because Tom Taylor handles Jon Kent the right way and in giving us a true next generation Superman. The Superman character has always evolved but this separate by it being a true next generation one has helped a lot so you can compare and contrast pretty well. I was surprised that we ended up getting more Injustice through it but it delivered well thanks to both Taylor and Henry and what they brought to the book. It's a lot of fun and I enjoyed the heck out of it, though the way it ends is such a hard end while at the same time saying “come back in a few months to see what's up next.” It just didn't make a compelling case to come back more since it's not as clear as it should be about where to find out what's next for the casual reader. All in all, definitely a fun book and enjoyable run. Read Full Review

Taylor is doing something very different with Jon Kent. That leads to a finale that won't be for everyone. With the end of this Jon-focused mini-series, he's going to show up next in the Beast World event, hopefully with Taylor continuing to handle his exploits. While the ending wasn't as strong as previous installments, Jon Kent and Injustice fans should find plenty to enjoy with this conclusion. Read Full Review

Ending with small moments rather than a grand battle, Jon Kents stay in the world of Injustice ends with an appropriate use of what it means to be Superman. Read Full Review

Adventures of Superman: Jon Kent #6 has the difficult job of wrapping up an important arc, while also attempting to resolve many of the Injustice universe's problems. It doesn't really accomplish either of those goals. Tom Taylor does a great job with Jon's character, but there is just not enough space to really flesh out Jon Kent, the world, and every supporting character that he comes across. It's unfortunate that such a brilliant series ends with ashes, rather than a bang. Read Full Review

This series just failed on multiple narrative levels and was unable to provide a satisfying conclusion. It looks great though. Read Full Review

It is a shame that Jon has been gutted in some ways by the recent books he has been in. I don't enjoy reading him anymore. I loved Tomasi's take in Super Sons when he was young. I liked Phillip Kennedy Johnson's take in the super-books. But this Jon? Maybe we need to shelve him for a bit. Or better yet, de-age him to the fun-loving young hero he was. I know I glossed over it but Henry's art is beautiful. Read Full Review

Adventures of Superman: Jon Kent #6 is a laughable ending to Jon Kent's adventure on the Injustice Earth. Rather than use the dwindling opportunity to push Jon Kent to mature into the Superman he needs to be, Taylor dumbs down the enemies, the world, and the universe to make a simple hug the answer to everyone's problems. What a waste. Read Full Review

With artwork that forgets to develop any interesting settings in favor of bland superhero splashes and a conclusion that is anything but satisfying, it's clear Adventures of Superman: Jon Kent is best skipped altogether. Read Full Review

While I did like this issue, I think it was a little bit of an underwhelming ending to a miniseries I was really enjoying. Don't get me wrong, I still liked this, but I feel like there should have been more here. What I mean by that is that I think Jon and Kal-El should have fought for a bit as they argue their points, which is what we usually see in comics. Then, you have them talk more the way they did here. That's just my idea, but my point is that I feel like this could have been executed better. Nonetheless, I still enjoyed this issue and I'm interested to see what was going on on the final page and how he'll fit into the Beast World storyline starting in November.

Fizzles out.
The miniseries introduced some very interesting, complex, scary questions on authority, grief, and why good people do bad things. But it's nowhere near equipped nor has the space to explore any of these themes in any meaningful ways.

That's the final and worst issue of this minisseries. The conclusion that Taylor and Henry's team bring it's that... there is no conclusion. The whole plot ends up unsolved, bringing us the feeling that all of this was a waste of time. Sad.

This wasn’t as strong an ending as I had hoped, probably due to restrictions with how much Jon could actually effect in the Injustice universe since, from what I understand, this is set before some events that have already been put into print. Jon’s electric powers are left mostly unexplored—they just exist—and he is able to defeat his enemies through the power of plot necessity. The ending is cheesy but I think it stays true to the character of Jon Kent, so I didn’t mind that aspect of it. I just wish it felt more satisfying. I really wanted this series to be better than it ended up being, but it had its moments.

This miniseries had potential, but was ultimately filled with ineffective, boring, bland storytelling. The art wasn't able to elevate it, which I feel has been a hallmark of Taylor's work lately (See Redondo on Nightwing). It just doesn't do anything to progress the narrative or the characters. And it isn't a fun read regardless of that. It's just bland. Who cares?

this was a very cheesy ending imo, and the way Jon Kent dealt with the regime is kinda Plot induced stupidity. The only thing why I'm giving this a 5 out of 10 is because it's Tom Taylor, but this story started off strong, then fell flat.

I used to love Tom Taylor and held out hope he'd come to a satisfying end here but man what a waste of time. Not only do we not a get a satisfying conclusion to Jon or Injustice Superman's stories, but the whole issue felt like Tom Taylor apologizing for his Injustice work when anyone with a brain accepted it was an Elseworld's story. Nightwing started out great until it just became the perpetual "Nightwing is awesome" series without resolving major plots, his Jon Kent work's been ok, and Teen Titans has so far been disappointing with the writing quality of an average digital first. Shame he couldn't keep up the magic he brought to the table on Injustice, Unkillables, and the DCeased digital spin off.

I am just going to give this one review for this entire series now that it is done.

This was a waste of time. People who are looking to buy these books in a TPB skip it. This series has no point, no good development as Jon and kind of just went downhill after issue one. I just dont understand why they even made this series?

It just feels all so pointless and meaningless. I am just apathetic to this I suppose.

Good news is it's over, bad news it existed in the 1st place.

Ass!!

WTF is this? Writers on AO3 can do better.

Vaya puta de mrd de historia, ni el final lo salva. Y si, lo escribo en español porque ni vale la pena el esfuerzo de ponerlo en ingles.
