The latest issue fleshes out more fully the budding friendship between Robin and Superboy, nicely setting the stage for future adventures (with or without parental permission). Read Full Review
From the get go, this issue is full of action and smart quips. I enjoyed every page and found myself laughing at the boys and Alfred quite a few times. Read Full Review
I highly recommend Super Sons. Especially if you like comics like the Teen Titans, I highly recommend Super Sons. I love this issue and I cant wait to see what happens with these two kids in the future. Read Full Review
This book is so much fun to read it is very easy to ignore how well told it is. That is truly a credit to the creative team. Read Full Review
Peter J. Tomasi presents an entertaining conclusion to his first arc, featuring very little battling, but a lot of great characterization. Read Full Review
Jon and Damian take an important step in their relationship to creating a similar Batman/Superman dynamic, but not before they have some fun fighting in the Batcave. Read Full Review
Super Son #5 Battle in the Batcave is another fun issue on the children of Batman and Superman. Tomasi once again captures this innocence of both Jon and Damian with some great writing that really brings these characters to life. Super Sons is really a hidden gem in the post-Rebirth titles and if you're looking for a fun and lightheared read with excellent art, this is defintely the title for you. Read Full Review
Super Sons #5 delivers a great story that captures the qualities of Superboy and Robin that make them so different and so alike simultaneously. This title continues to be a delight, and something I truly look forward to picking up every month. Read Full Review
Overall Super Sons continues to surprise as to how poignant can book be without constant threats and just concentrating on the friendship aspect of the superhero angle. It has humor, action and never takes itself too seriously. This would be one Animated Show I would like to watch if it was ever made! Read Full Review
In the end, the dads decide that perhaps letting the boys go on adventures together will be good for them. It'll teach them teamwork and perspective. But they have to go out together, to protect each other. This was a character driven issue, showing how not only the sons interact but also how they interact with their fathers. I think this was a fantastic way to follow up the opening arc. I doubt Jon and Damian will be bosom buddies but at least they understand each other. Read Full Review
Super Sons so far is proving to be a surprise gem of the DC Rebirth line, as it could easily have played completely silly, but instead we get something fun and with character and heart. Read Full Review
Super Sons is one of the most genuine and resounding books on the stands right now and it definitely deserves a place on your pull list. Read Full Review
A good story that allows the characters to learn more about themselves and each other, but overall felt like filler with the lack of stakes. Read Full Review
In a mostly fun interlude, Tomasi falls into the same old trap of having Jon and Damian needlessly fight, while also counteracting this with a pretty great series of scenes near the end. Read Full Review
From the beginning, Super Sons has been all about the dynamic between Damian and Jon. That's on full display here, as Tomasi has the boys come to a head and begrudgingly work out their differences. The intent is better than the execution, but it's still a relatively enjoyable issue. The drama works, the action beats are great, and the chemistry between the leads is a blast. Super Sons is fun, there's no two ways about it, and that makes even lesser chapters worth reading. Read Full Review
Overall: A humorous, well-developed filler issue, with some unforgettable panels and dialogue. Alisson Borges holds Jorge Jimenezs torch with honors and Tomasi continues being one of the best writers when it comes to characterization. Read Full Review
If you want almost a whole issue of Damian and Jon fighting in the Batcave then your dreams have come true. It's nothing we haven't seen before and getting this sort of thing this early in the series makes it all the worse. Allison Borges' art is outstanding, but that's the only reason to get this one.

If you're on a budget or trying to keep your weekly expenses down, this is an issue you can skip without missing much. Read Full Review
Even if you don't like Damian, don't trust the writer or don't understand whatever happened to Kon-El, this book makes for a nice read. Read Full Review
This is getting better and better. Worth the read, and a great jumping on point for a new story arch. I can't get enough of Damian Wayne, and now Jonathan Kent is growing onto me as well. Art work is great and the story is even better,
A bit unnecessary when it comes to plot, but still a very fun addition to one of the more lighthearted and interesting books in the DC rebirth catalog.
This was a rather enjoyable read. There isn't a lot of action, so if that's not your thing you should take that into consideration, but the writing is pretty nice. It delves more into the relationship between Batman and Superman to give us a basis for how Damian and Jon are acting. All in all a fine read and I'm excited to see how the meetup with the Titans goes!
