"BOYzarro RE-DEATH" part two! What do you get when you try to fit a boy from a square planet into a round one? Boyzarro! Superboy and Kathy try to keep the lid on their Bizarro-sized can of worms as Boyzarro tears a rage-filled path of destruction from Metropolis to Hamilton and beyond! But what happens when Superman and Bizarro find out what their kids have been up to?
This storyline reminds me of how much fun Tomasi and Gleason's run has been so far. It's been a great ride, and it's too bad that it's almost at an end. But it's not quite over yet, so let's just sit back and enjoy it while we still can. Read Full Review
I don't want to ruin all the surprises and cameos this issue. Tomasi and Gleason are putting out all stops to ensure that their final arc is just as memorable as any other one on their run. I'm not happy they're leaving, but they certainly are making this the perfect cap to their terrific take on Superman. Read Full Review
It is a shame this is all ending. I wish DC could have figured out a way to both appease Bendis and leave the successful super-books they are producing alone. I know Bendis says he is building on this continuity but it is my nature to worry. Suddenly four books which I enjoy are either missing or radically changed. So let's enjoy this while we can!

Superman is just" fun. It's the type of story that you can appreciate whether you're enfranchised or new to the series. Gleason and Tomasi have curated such a wonderful sandbox and they continue to deliver stellar storytelling. Read Full Review
Superman has been in great hands this entire run, concentrating on family and making Clark a family man. Gleason and Tomasi decided to give us this same dynamic now with Bizzaro, and it certainly works on the square earth as well. It is one of the reasons I am a little afraid of Bendis upcoming run on Superman hoping that he'll avoid retconning the great things Tomasi and Gleason have accomplished with Superman. I was never readily a Superman collector, however this entire run made me believe in the character. Read Full Review
The second chapter of the Bizarroverse arc is fun, exciting, and emotional thanks to it's newest member, Boyzarro Read Full Review
This is a fun issue with great visuals and I appreciate the writer's commitment to the essence of the character. Read Full Review

The Bizarroverse storyline is shaping up to be a great one. This first issue in the story gave the impression that this would be a meeting between Superboy and Boyzarro, with a good old fashioned Superman/Bizarro tussle in there somewhere. Thats a fun, albeit simple, premise, but Tomasi and Gleason have expanded on that, adding new layers to the story and upping the ante. This story will be the last one the team gets to do before Bendis comes in and its looking to be one for the ages. Read Full Review
Ill be sad to see the creative team leave this series at the conclusion of this story as they have been writing some of Supermans finest adventures to date. That said, this story is gearing up to be a memorable one and that makes it an easy recommendation to anyone who enjoys Superman and his extended cast. Read Full Review
Downer's colors are a high point of this issue, which puts Superboy side by side with his Bizarro doppelgnger throughout. While that makes for some cool, fun, and funny visuals, unfortunately the writing on the Bizarro stuff continues to be a little too" Bizarro. Read Full Review
A good second issue that propels this Bizarro story forward in new and interesting ways. Read Full Review
Wonderfully written, visually stunning, and thoroughly entertaining, Superman #43 is a must-read comic for Bizarro fans. And as interesting and exciting as Superman #43 is, the book's ending sets the stage for what promises to be an epic follow-up issue Read Full Review
Story wise it was little tough to get the first 3 pages or so, but after that it was pure gold and highly entertaining. I am not even going to pretend like I understood everything that was going on or said but it was still good. Read Full Review
This comic is fun. It's Superman in his element. He's being a good guy who tries to help others. As we move deeper into stories about Superman/Clark Kent the family man, these lessons seem to be something we will need to get used to. The dad lessons are there for sure, but all in all, it's still Superman, and it's still good. Read Full Review
I would highly recommend this book as a nice deviation to the typical superhero stories being told. Read Full Review
"BizarroVerse" is am bad read! (Meaning its pretty darn good in DCUVerse speak). Read Full Review
Bizarro talk is abundant in this issue and where I was hoping that it would back off a bit from the previous issue, it did at least become easier to read. While we have so many crazy things going on in this story, there's a nugget of something that comes off more interesting than the rest and I hope that personal bit is explored more, while also keeping the many characters that appear in this issue coming as this series continues. I love the art and am enjoying the story enough, even with all that damned backwards talk. Read Full Review
We'll see if this creative team has any last tricks up their sleeves before leaving the Man of Steel to Brian Michael Bendis, but for now, this is just good, solid storytelling. Read Full Review
Though SUPERMAN #43 has its uplifting, heartwarming moments, it falls short in establishing an engaging, cohesive narrative. Read Full Review
This is a pretty solid read. The take on Boyzarro coming from a dysfunctional family is kind of funny, and I liked the scenes with Boyzarro and Superboy. And Robzarro was kind of funny. Pretty good.
Welcome to the Oblivion Bar where the first round is on me and the pretzels are free! Be warned: like the pickled eggs at the bar, this issue is going to get SPOILED rotten.
I’m really trying here... I understand the planning to articulate Bizarro tongue must be incredibly taxing and difficult. But it is awful to read and totally confusing.
But before I knock it I think we need to separate ourselves from what we WANT and realize this is probably meant to be a fun read. We aren’t getting continuity or a build up to some big reveal. We are just getting a stand alone story that is more like a “what if”. If I look at it like that, it’s humorous, unique, and interesting. The art is fine but again, it’s hard fo more
