    For the last eight issues, Dan Jurgens has been channeling a hope and fun into Superman tales that still feel modern. This issue is the kicker of them all, telling a story that is just unconditionally sweet and heartwarming from beginning to end. Read Full Review

    The art is done by Weeks who brings a strength to the scenes and power. I can't quite name it, but it is both neat and gritty. And that has worked well here. Read Full Review

    Not a bad end to this mini-series, but a bit incomplete. This may have more to do with editorial than the creative team. Read Full Review

    Another book ends to make way for Rebirth and while I can't say that any of them have been stellar, this one may be the worst.  Dan Jurgens just ends things with the wave of his hand a alakazam and after investing myself in this series, I couldn't help but get pissed off.  Sure, Lee Week's and company gave fans great looking issue, but everything else stunk on ice.  I am still looking forward to seeing the "Whites" in Rebirth, but this issue just left me wondering what could have been...because this just couldn't have been the original plan.

    I don't get why this comic is being bombed so hard, it is a touch rushed, but I personally feel that its heart shines through. I loved this book, and I am really happy that the story of Superman, Lois, and Jon is being continued into Rebirth.

    I had read that this was a standout series from the end of New 52 and the whole relaunch in general. Knowing that this was the prelude to the Superman of Rebirth I read it hoping it was as good as the Rebirth and #1 issues. Sadly, this series is very basic and could have been told in maybe 2 or 3 issues. Lots of filler and very few character moments. I'm not at all familiar with Jurgen's work but he does not have the knack to write a "family" story or even the ability to give characters any depth. If this series was intended to attract a younger audience then so be it, but I think DC and the writer missed on a chance to humanize Superman and also introduce his son in a great and unique way.

    for such an amazing series this issue was a HUGE let down!!! . . . . . i had such high hopes for this issue, but the ending just went 'Ker-Plunk!' . . . . . . even the art felt kind'a rushed . . . . . . at least everything else was great up until this last issue . . . . . . . oh well? @<@
