This is what some might call a f*ck you five. Only reason it's not a 1/10 is because of the art and the brief warm fuzzy feelings I got when

Bendis is completely ignoring both established Rebirth continuity AND his own continuity established in his other Super book. He has spent 19 issues now doing what exactly? Split up the SuperFam for no apparent reason except to age up Jon Kent, an more

Well you see he had to tell the story in this series, so that he could screw readers of both series with bad plots.

Some of the dialogue feels off and weird! Though damn why recently whenever Lois is in an issue, she has to be all sexy like. Kind of dumb of them to be talking out in the public for people to be watching them. Should have at least gone inside. The art is truly beautiful! The story itself is okay! Jon’s temple of doom story was okay but just to say that Jor-el is insane and that’s the end of t more

Any hopes I had that this will make sense are gone now.

Superman’s decision to let his wife and kid leave with Jor-EL, and Lois’ decision to leave Jon with Jor-EL makes even less sense due to the “shocking reveal ” that’s not really a shocking reveal. Not to mention Lois reasoning for leaving Jon behind and not telling Superman she’s back is not properly explored or expl more

I dropped the series and Action Comics after the AC issue where Lois plays dumb about living a fake marriage. Bendis clearly didn't want to write about a functionally married Superman or about a fun-loving 10 year old son of the world's most recognized hero. And Lois for all her strong character was shown to have no care for either husband nor son. And to boot, Jon is now going to have to fit in with a universe he's now 7 years too old for. I'm out till a new team.

Agreed. It hurts to say this as a lifelong Superman fan, but I'm strongly leaning towards dropping these books as well. The books have been staying in my to read pile longer and longer because I dread what I'll see next.

Tl;dr I did not think it would be possible for bendis’ writing to get worse on this book, he proved me wrong. Please save yourself the physical pain it will cause on your eyes and do not read it, buying it would be far too much and contribute to one of the worst books out there.

On to the actual contents now, so know spoilers will follow:

Outstanding review. I especially liked the part about physical pain to your eyes… I definitely experienced that.

This is really bad. The whole issue and story depends on us not knowing Jor-El is bad. But he is. We've seen it. Why is it a shock to anyone? Why did Lois leave her son with this clearly evil character after one mission? Even if he wasn't evil, that's some garbage parenting. This is so dumb because it contradicts all that Rebirth Superman/Action Comics strove to do. That whole era can be described more
