I have enjoyed Joshua Williamson's run on the character and this Brainiac arc has been pretty engrossing. I think it has nicely showcased the new world order that Williamson has made - villains as allies, family as phalanx, Brainiac as universal threat. Does this closing chapter stick the landing? The answer is mostly. Read Full Review
Superman #15 concludes the House of Brainiac storyline. Sadly, the finale doesnt really redeem Brainiac Queen or the motives behind why Brainiac went to all this trouble to create her. However, we do get epic art from Rafa Sandoval from start to finish this time, and the character writing for Superman, Lex Luthor, and everyone else is still top notch. While the story doesnt exactly stick the landing well, its not a terrible finale, and it has enough of a wholesome ending for Superman and company. Read Full Review
The event got a little too big and unwieldy in general, but this finale issue is full of entertaining superhero action and excitement. Read Full Review
Yeah..... overall I got to say this is my favorite Superman event of all time, surpassing Superman Reborn and just below Death of Superman. The art, the action, the pacing all works for me. I like how Superman didnt just punch the villain to smithereens, but everyone had a big role to play. The Super family coming in to help Superman, and Lex Luthor deactivating Brainiac's ship was well-done. I am interested to see how this plays out, I actually thought Brainiac and the Queen were interesting. Overall I'm excited for Absolute Power and how Joshua Williamson will play out hte rest of his Superman series.
I think that Brianiac was pretty stupid during this issue. He lost his whole strategic 12th-level intellect somewhere along the line. I guess all he needed was love. That was pretty cheesy. It has some good action and the artwork is great. When Superman saved Colu, where did he put it before it went to the Brianiac metal planetoid?

Overall this was an alright read with pretty ok art. And while I won't be in a rust to read this again any time too soon, Williamson surprised me with this one. I enjoyed it a lot more than I expected to.

I'm really not sure how I feel about that last page cliffhanger. while the intrigue may be tantalizing, i honestly would have preferred this reveal show up later closer to when this upcoming plot point will start. I just really dislike when stories never have just a nice solid conclusion.
