I honestly really like the art here, and I like how Al Ewing makes this story sound so intruiging and mysterious. I'm really digging the DC Absolute Universe line-up right now

Is this really as bad as people are saying?
Or perhaps, the character is so popular that it is literally impossible to please everyone?

For the mean time, I'm enjoying this. It's not DC Absolute or Ultimate Spider-Man level but I don't feel it's bad as it's being made out to be.

I feel like people's reaction to everything these days is default negativity and expectatio more

It's a Brainiac-focused story… without Superman ): … and I love it!!

I just love how Jason Aaron gave this Brainiac a twisted demented version, and Carmine Di Giandemenico's art really sells the eerie aspect. This doesn't have Superman in it, but it's really well-done here
