Solid epilogue. I hope to see JR JR and Bendis back on this title somewhere down the line.
Olsen and Luthor being related was a cool little Flash Fact to takeaway from the book , but seeing Jimmy in charge was just about all that mattered.
I could care less about this iteration of Superboy. I personally champion the Geoff Johns Connor Kent over any other Boy of Steel. At least that one more

Not a bad ending. Good to see Wonder Woman back, but I would have rather her resemble how she looked in previous "Beyond" series', than her current film iteration. Such a Marvel thing to do - that didn't really fit into what DC is known for. This issue felt more like a promo for "WW1984" than a Batman Beyond send off.
Still, Jurgens behind the pen and Inque chosen as the main villain was en more

Two issues deep and things just seem to be getting worser for the heroes. I like how Cates has written tnese heroes into a corner, and it looks like it's getting worse.
Brock has fallen for at least 3 issues, I have never seen anything like that before. That was beautiful.
The powers of Eddie's son was a surprise , but more so was Spidey's spider-sense working to warn him of the symbio more

DJ C.V.R. reviewed Red Hood and the Outlaws #52 Dec 24, 2020

The blaxplotation saga of Red Hood continues ! Of course , I love how the female characters were drawn , but what was the point of this two-issue arc , if not to pander to Afro-readers ?
I'm here for it, but to be a conscious effort , the story should have been longer than just a throwaway postscript after "Outlaw" ended.

Please applaud this person who does not have sheep blindness, OF COURSE IT WAS MADE TO PLEASE A GROUP if what has been happening is tragic, but why not look for A REAL WRITER who did A GOOD JOB and is not here which they did without sense. And there are countless mistakes Shawn insists on putting a Jason in his thirties when at most he will have 22 exaggerating, when a fan confronted him with the facts, the man only avoided that it is difficult to know their age.

By far this is the best issue I have read in this series. Barely a Batman in sight, as the jaded Superboy Prime gets his redemption story.
Not knowing the full origins of this character, it was as if I was being reintroduced. "Secret Origin" is the other side of the mirror to "Infinite Crisis".
Truly this is the best for last, as the main issues of Death Metal , have been at it's wors more
