Superman #28 marks the end of Brian Michael Bendis' tenure on the title. As I have said before I am sad to see him leave. I think his run on this book and Action Comics had way more ups than downs. Bendis' knack with dialogue and character has made the Superman supporting cast as important as they have been for decades. And his take on Supergirl has been great. Read Full Review

The end of the two-year run is over with this slightly awkward end to an otherwise spectacular year inSuperman #28 from #DCComics @BRIANMBENDIS #ivanreis @DannyMiki_ @Sinccolor @daveLsharpe . Read Full Review

There are some great moments in this issue, but it often feels like the end of an act"not the end of a run as a whole. I'm not sure where Bendis lands after this run, but I hope he gets to continue to place his stamp on the DCU. Read Full Review

An epic run comes to a quiet (and lovely) conclusion Read Full Review

Superman #28 serves as a finale for Brian Bendis' multi-year run on the Man of Steel's core series, bringing home his, Ivan Reis, and others' additions to the Superman mythos while reminding readers of the character's many timeless qualities. Read Full Review

Ivan Reis delivers some fantastic art throughout the issue. Reis has a firm grasp on the power and majesty of the character and that comes across in the imagery. Read Full Review

Bendis' Superman run could have been so much better. He understood the man, but he was so intent on upending so much that was working just fine from the previous regime to make his own mark that he lost the majority of what made the Superman Rebirth era so entertaining. Read Full Review

All of these characters have been wasted for so long that it would be nice. Read Full Review

Our Symar tale and Bendis' run on this book comes to a close this issue and with that..... it's a hard to follow mess that thankfully looks good but focuses a bunch of the story through narration that doesn't matter just to tell you that Superman is great and that we all love him. This Synmar aspect though is convoluted as hell and left my head spinning in trying to figure out what actually happened in this arc.   Read Full Review

And with Superman #28, Brian Michael Bendis' time as writer of the title comes to a close. Although, there were some bright spots in that run, I hope the next creative team takes a good hard look at the state Bendis has left the Superman mythos in. Bendis ignored the old adage "if it's not broke, don't fix it", and now the incoming creative team actually needs to do some fixing. Read Full Review

The part with the aspiring musician was wholesome. Lana Lang's piece was also pretty good.

The Lana piece was strong. As was Reis, who is always fantastic. Everything else was...bad.

This was a part of the galaxy so far away that no one, including Superman, had seen before, and yet The United Planets (another over-used Bendis conceit) manage to get there in virtually no time. How? Art was great, storyline was too confusing to dig into.

Usually a Superman in distant space story is exciting, but this was a bore from the first page to the last. The only thing that makes the sacrifice some poor tree made so this would see print is Reis's work. Other than that this was the poorest conclusion to a story I've read in many a year. Bendis' last issue of Action was better, and that's saying something since this was always the preferable series during his run. This will never be looked at by fans as a favorite point in Superman history. I doubt they'll have much success with collectors short of the $1 bins for years to come. Go back to Marvel Bendis. Go to Archie if you want. And good luck to you. Just don't ever expect a warm welcome if you ever try to come back to Superman.

I don’t hate Bendis usually, but his work at DC save for Batman Universe and the first few issues of Young Justice has been headache inducing. Maybe he can focus back down to one series for a while.

Infuriating to read.

This issue was so annoying. I don't want to talk about this run anymore.

Thank god this whole run is over, the worst Superman has ever been in his long history. Now let some one fix this crap like they always do when Bendis the hack leaves

UHHHHG...If I could give this issue a negative rating I would. Thankfully the God awful Bendis reign of terror is over. I actually wrote out an in depth review of this book and deleted it because it didn't deserve the effort of a full review. I will say this though Bendis never understood what Superman in 2020 should be and portrayed Lois Lane well beyond the scope of what the character needed to be. I can only hope that Phillip Kennedy Johnson has the good sense to leave his personal politics out of the stories that he writes when he takes over the book in March 2021.

I love Ivan Reis, but Bendis on Superman is absolute trash
