Crazy issue! Easily the scariest yet, and adds an insane twist that is going to have big ramifications. Art was outstanding.

Fantastic issue. Got some backstory on the Weeping Lions, adding a welcome layer of emotional depth to the story. Art is gorgeous as usual.

I'm so interested to know what in tarnation is going on. Thankfully the slow pace is gripping rather than plodding, so I've no trouble waiting.

I actually love that Waid isn't writing nearly as much dialogue in this as he usually does and that he's just letting Chris Samnee's marvelous art speak for itself. I'm loving this.

Very little dialogue, just one big chase scene, and yet it was absolutely exhilarating from start to finish. Barely a tease with regard to the plot, but I'm already so invested in what's going to happen. And Samnee's art was incredible.

A love letter to Superman fans. This issue embodies everything the Man of Steel is. I loved it. I also loved Tom King just casually opening a dozen cans of worms and settling age old debates in rapid succession through Alice's questions; that was great. I also loved that, in the end, it turns out that Superman's decision to go rescue this one seemingly insignificant girl, rather than abandoning earth, he ends up saving it. It was perfect. Also, it seems Superman didn't kill that sick alien after all! So I guess he lied to Darkseid. I guess that makes more sense than him mercy-killing the alien, although I had already accepted and justified it in my mind so I didn't need that, but I suppose it is in keeping with Superman's character. He just finds a way. more

What...is...happening.

Visually spectacular. The plot thickens, and the mystery deepens. Bits and pieces are coming back in my memory from the time I first read these first couple arcs, and it's cool to see how Lemire teases future revelations early on.

I absolutely loved both of these stories. Superman agreeing to a deal with Darkseid to kill an innocent person, but then finding a way to make that killing a form of saving someone, was absolute genius in the most brilliantly heartbreaking way. And then the story about Superman living a quiet, peaceful life at the expense of his principles was such a powerful display of the virtue of the Man of Steel. He wouldn't give up one single person in order to "have it all" and enjoy a good life. This was top notch and my favourite issue so far. more

I like the slow burn. Lemire is really taking his time drawing the reader into the mystery bit by bit and gradually increasing the anxiety levels, carefully building suspense and pushing the characters towards what will inevitably be an inescapable sense of dread. Good stuff. Sorrentino's art is perfect for this genre.

Finally getting back to this after having read the first couple arcs 6-7 years ago. This was a great start, just like I remember. Good setup, nice little mystery to unravel and a sense of unease and discomfort that will surely grow and fester until it's downright horror. Lemire and Sorrentino are a stellar team. The writing and artwork were both on point.

Probably the weakest so far. I thought the story where Superman was split into two personalities was kind of interesting, but the race story was too wordy and just plain boring. We get it, Superman doesn't give up.

Kinda garbage. The jokes were unfunny, the characters continue to be bland with zero team chemistry, and the story was so uninteresting it hurts. Glad to be done. It probably doesn’t help that I read this as part of the Gwenpool omnibus, and not only is Gwen written differently here, but she's probably the team member who gets the least amount of spotlight throughout the series. So, a disappointment on a number of fronts. more

Some funny moments. I liked that Clint was outed when the real Wonder Man appeared on live TV; it's the kind of ridiculous bad luck scenario he would find himself in. I also enjoyed the expressions of Gwen, Quentin and Ramone when they found out about the vampires. That being said, this issue still struggled with the same stuff this whole series has struggled with. There is no depth to any of these characters whatsoever. None of them are growing (except maybe Quentin the tiniest bit), and there's no chemistry at all between any of them, even between Kate and Johnny who are supposed to be a couple. And I literally could not care less about Ramone... her whole "I'm a black woman surfer champ who runs her own small business so I'm basically a superhero" could not have made me roll my eyes harder. Also...when did she get skinny? Wasn't she fairly heavyset when she was introduced? What, the writer/artist didn't think a plump girl in magical Wakandan armor would look good? more

I loved Clint impersonating Wonder Man. I wanted more of that.

Man, some really heavy stuff in this one. The middle story about the alien who gave his life to save Superman because of how many he would go on to save if he lived...dang. That was a gut gutpunch.

Gwenpool is the most entertaining character here by a mile. I wish we got more of her 4th wall breaking, but I guess Thompson doesn't want her to overshadow all the other characters.
