    I wish that I could wake up a year from now and be able to read the entire 12 issue series in its completion, because it is that good. Theres some coloring issues, to be sure, some things that dont mesh well with the line work, but its better than the sum of its parts. Millars usage of smaller arcs is working out wonderfully, and I hope that it keeps this upward trend. Probably the pillar of his new era. Comments and thoughts would be appreciated below.

    Overall, good issue that dove into an problem that has been plaguing our country for decades centuries ever. Adultery is a bitch man. Even superheroes succumb to it. The weak ones at least. Here's to hoping someone can talk some sense into The Flare before his flame gets put out. Read Full Review

    Jupiter's Circle continues to be an excellent exploration of 1950's values at odds with the cruel frailty of the human condition. Read Full Review

    This book is lighthearted and deep at the same time. It’s a simple book that packs a lot of social commentary, all through one awesome superhero. It’s a really great story, with even better underlying themes to think about once you flip that last page. Read Full Review

    If you're looking for a new read somewhere between Justice League and General Hospital then Jupiter's Circle is just what you need! The action these heroes face doesn't match up with the drama they're facing in their own lives, which is a fresh take on the classic superhero formula. Read Full Review

    Comic Bastards - Steven E. Paugh Jun 3, 2015

    Altogether, Millar and Torres are working well in Jupiter's Circle to deliver a book that feels light and airy, while at the same time cutting deeper grooves of commentary, both within our very real society and in the world previously established in Jupiter's Legacy. I'm not sure it's a "must read" for casual observers, or fans of that universe specifically, but for my money at least, Jupiter's Circle continues to be a fun use of the medium and superhero subgenre, and this third issue once again effectively whets my appetite for more.

    Being a huge Millarworld fan, it saddens me to see Jupiter's Circle fare so poorly, as though I can respect that this is the tale the writer chose to tell, it's vastly different from what was established, feeling more like a soap opera than an epic superhero yarn. Thus I sadly can't recommend this issue, though do hope that things pick up heading into the next. Read Full Review
