    AIPT - David Brooke Aug 25, 2020

    This is about as solid as good old-fashioned comic books can get. There's a showdown, a payoff to the fight, attention to detail that keeps the continuity making sense, and heroic moments for both title characters to accomplish. There's so much here that works I almost wonder if the issues that preceded are necessary. You can easily pick up this book completely cold and enjoy it. Batman/Superman has a warmth and classical approach to superhero storytelling that's nostalgic. Read Full Review

    And it looks like that brain is injured from the variety of experiments it has endured. So we get a nice little coda.The Humanite's brain is in STAR Labs. But even they wonder how many drones are still out there.The Atomic Skull is buried a hero. Read Full Review

    Dark Knight News - Bryant Lucas Aug 28, 2020

    Underneath the superhero shenanigans and pipe-like noggins, Batman/Superman #11 has heart. If you strip away the outlandish trappings and veneer, this story is about friendship and sacrifice. Williamson never loses sight of these characters' humanity, even if Clayton gives them alien-shaped craniums. Read Full Review

    This was a solid arc that might lack in some high stakes, but it delivers another effective and engaging Batman/Superman story. Read Full Review

    The conclusion to this latest arc of Josh Williamson's team-up adventure is pretty exciting, although it's bogged down by some ties to a title that isn't nearly as consistently good. Read Full Review

    Batman/Superman #11 " Has this sewn up the World's Finest and their tiff over Clark's decision to reveal his identity? Can Bruce really perform computerized open heart surgery on himself with no anesthesia? And is that the Atomic Skull coming back from the dead faster than the Bride from Kill Bill? This comic is all over the place! Read Full Review

    Weird Science - Jim Werner Aug 25, 2020

    Joshua Williamson forces an ending to his Atomic arc that makes little sense and will probably be forgotten by most the minute they are done reading it.  Clayton Henry's art was good, but it can't save the convoluted ending to a generic story.  Batman and Superman are the World's Finest, I just wish this book would show that.

    Batman/Superman's "Atomic" arc got off to a promising start, but with its conclusion, it feels like we're right back where we started. Read Full Review

    Batman-News - Casper Rudolph Aug 25, 2020

    I can't recommend this comic. The writing and the art are subpar, and the story doesn't really go anywhere in the end. This book just feels pointless at the moment, and I genuinely can't think of a good reason why you should spend your time and money on this. Read Full Review
