    Batman-News - Casper Rudolph Sep 20, 2022

    This is a strong start to the new arc. David, Superman's new sidekick, is a relatable and sympathetic character, and even though the tone is much more grim than what we're used to seeing in this series, there's still that spark of hope as Batman and Superman try to help David out and take care of him. It's a clean script, and since there's minimal exposition, the art can breathe and shine. It's a great jumping-on point as well. Recommended! Read Full Review
