    I enjoy Benes artwork. He has the ability to express both body and facial emotion as well as action sequences. While not on the exact same level as before, the writing by Verheiden is picking up where Azzarello left off. Read Full Review

    This issue uses transparent and blatant devices to further Supermans newfound emotional feelings. However, I still respect that Verheiden is attempting to do something different with this book. He has found a solid direction to take Superman, his means are just something to be desired. If the art is more consistent and the story is less contrived, Verheiden could potentially craft a nice little run on this book. Read Full Review
