In SUPERBOY #10, learn how the threat currently facing Superboy and Smallville stretches all the way back to the time of ancient Atlantis! Guest-starring Arion and the Viking Prince, with art by Pete Woods and CAFU!
I'm sad to see Lemire and Gallo leave "Superboy." It wasn't a perfect title, but I can honestly say it was one that kept growing in strength and (like "Batgirl") quickly snuck up on me as a comic that I looked forward to reading every month. I'm glad Lemire has "Animal Man" starting next month (the previews DC's been running this week look strong), plus of course "Sweet Tooth" over at Vertigo. But this "Superboy" title has been genuinely fun. It'll definitely be missed. Read Full Review
However, this issue has done its job in that it's gotten me excited for the conclusion of the story arc, and has formed a deeper connection with a villain that I otherwise would not have cared about. That takes talent. Props, Mr. Lemire. Read Full Review
The book also utilizes the multiple artists well, using each for a different time period (which is the best way to do it to begin with), but also using artists whose styles complement each other rather than clash. There's still one issue left, which I'm looking forward to. I just wish Lemire had been given more time to play with this character and really make his mark. Read Full Review
For a whole issue dedicated to exposition, you really don't learn all that much, though the scenes are enjoyable enough, and get some fantastic guest art. Read Full Review
