Superman has been defeated by Lex Luthor-or so the evil mastermind thinks! Trapped in a Kryptonite fortress under the sea, our hero is fading fast-but he can't be defeated when his friends have his back! And while he is recovering, a new Kryptonian arrives on the scene! Plus, something weird has come to Central City. The Flash might provide some answers...if you can keep up!

    Fun, light and breezy, Super Powers is just a great time all around. Baltazar and Franco know how to write stories that are engaging for all ages, and this is no exception. I love the weird corners of DC history the duo mine to get characters for their stories, for who would have thought we'd be seeing Composite Superman again? In a kid's book? Super Powers is pure, unadulterated entertainment, optimistic without being corny and wry without being cynical. Read Full Review

    This is a really fun issue. Sometimes, these heroes are taken a little too seriously so I always enjoy when writers try a sillier angle. It's creative, the art is neat, and it has some fun with the DC mythos. Read Full Review

    Art Baltazar completely own this comic. He is an accomplished cartoonist that knows how to simplify complex character designs into something recognizable and dynamic. Superman is Superman. Batman is Batman. But each character has been stripped to its essential core which makes them more enticing, visually. Read Full Review

    AIPT - David Brooke Dec 28, 2016

    The art sure is and is worthy of at least a check-in by fans of the DC universe. It's appreciated the story is taking stories deep in the canon and bringing them out in this cute way, but the humor is lacking and most will find it hard to really enjoy. Read Full Review
