Very well written and I'm a Zdarsky fan but it is a little disappointing that the series is a retelling of his past rather than set in current times.

I like what PJK is going for capturing those loving happy Kent family vibes at the farm but it just feels so unnatural how forced the relationship with the kids is written. I appreciate he's doing his best to give us those family moments we were robbed of by Bendis aging up Jon but it just doesn't work for me. I can take or leave the whole war world story but like PJK enough to see where this goes more

Chris Condon is killing it with this book right now. I felt it had a rocky start but he really found his groove and story along with the art is reminiscent of Lemire's run which was a classic. The heart felt moments with Roy and Lian was the standout but the whole rest of the story was great as well. Plus Montos' art is awesome and a perfect fit for the series.

Another example that Zeb Wells is not funny. I thought we would have all learned this during the She-Hulk Disney Plus show. The plot made no sense. Why would Batman allow his capture when he could have been unmasked.
