This issue felt a lot more focused and easier to understand with all the chaos. I love how in 2025, this is definitely's Superman year, with James Gunn Superman, DC Ko. It's a shame Superman doesn't have a animated show or movie coming out this year for this to truly be Superman's year.

A nice improvement from the first issue and clearly establishes that this crossover will just be some self aware dumb fun while still having a nice focusing on Superman's moral character and beliefs.

I used to like PJK but hiss continually over drawn out stories have finally beat me down to accept that it's all he's going to offer. This elder story has gone on for so long that it's lost any sense of urgency or intrigue that no matter what happens, I'm just unable to care at this point. I was enjoying the the monster of the week style due to the amazing art and even as that went on I kept reading for Charlie as she's a great character.

I suppose that's what's most frustrating is that PJK is capable of being a fantastic character writer and has a strong passion and knowledge for the characters he writes but the over drawn out pacing is just killing his stories for me. I'm really liking his Batman and Robin as his character work with Damien is phenomenal and I'm just praying editorial (though also lacking at DC) keeps in on track to create tighter stories. more

After reading Dick Tracy, it just shocks me that Alex Segura just doesn't get Star Wars. This one at least has some action in it. I can't understand how everyone besides Luke isn't dead. There's just no rhyme or reason to this story. It's simply all over the place with no direction. I gave it until issue 5 to do something, and apparently Segura is taking this "story" beyond issue six, which is perhaps why this feels so diluted. By issue 12, it's going to feel like dragging around a corpse. I'm out.

Mora's art is amazing and such a blast to have Grant revisiting some of his old creations, embracing the golden age cheese he loves, cosmic concepts, and bringing himself into the tale like the legendary Animal Man series.

Aside from the great story from Taylor for Nightwing/Wolverine (and Gabby thank god!) the rest weren't anything of note. Aside from Mora the art looked rushed especially for Redondo who did such a great job on Nightwing.

Batman/Deadpool - 7.5
Constantine/Strange - 6
Nightwing/Wolverine - 8.5
Harley/Hulk - 5
Static/Ms. Marvel - 4 more

The issue feels very climatic and is super elevated by Dexter Soy's amazing art but this whole Zani & Pearce story is built on a foundation of bad issues with all over the place plotting. I love Nightwing so I'll follow along and hopefully the rest of the arc are on this level (but hopefully better) which at least provides a decent read though ultimately makes no sense.

I was very nervous at the start of the issue which continued the painfully boring discussions about all the considerations of moving the population, but Layman finally gets to some good beats with the threats the Titans will have to take on the protect the displaced people. Layman's done a good job on this series so really hoping he gets things back on track with the last issue just being a hiccup of a tie-in issue. more

Finally some progression and interesting answers! I love Lemire but he should've tightened up the previous issues to get to this sooner and the series would be in a much better place. However this issue was great from everything with the rogues, Wally, and the reveal that Thawne played Barry which is why he seemed sketchy before. Really hoping Lemire keeps up this pacing as there's a lot of interesting things at play here. more

Slott plotting with Adams writing goes together like pb&j! A perfect combo of writers who like to have fun but elevated with Adams' mastery of character work. This is is exactly what Jon needs to as I feel like he's yet to get a good story since being aged up and really hoping we get more stories of him in this series to progress the character under the hands of better writers.

Interesting story elevated but what may have been the best lightsaber battles I can recall from the Marvel cannon comics.

This whole revamped year one story just isn't doing it for me and I hope it only lasts 5-6 issues and switches to the current timeline with more interesting stories.

It's strange on how much better and cohesive this story was compared to H2SH. While this was not on the same level as The Last Halloween and Dark Victory, this was still a very solid and strong conclusion to the trilogy. The rotating artists did not bother me, even with Batman being meaner, it didn't bother me as much. Jeph Loeb clearly showed that he enjoyed and really wanted to write this story well. And shout out to Tim Sale as well more
