Still way better than ASM is but I felt the pacing on this issue was a bit weird, the story is still good and seeing all the Spider-Verse characters is amazing as Bagley nails the different styles and aesthetics effortlessly. I’ve been enjoying this series quite a lot but thought this was a weaker issue. Let’s see how it ends.

It’s okay for comics to be silly! And silly this was. A fun adventure that could have been benefited by another issue to explore the ideas introduced but this read like a classic silver age Fantastic Four tale to me. Been enjoying this run so far but I’d like to see some more linear plot progression and direction.

A solid entry into what has been a very enjoyable Nightwing book for quite a while now.

Nothing too bald or risky in this issue. But that’s not a bad thing, interested to see where this goes. As far as first issues go this sets things up nicely and puts Superman in a position he hasn’t been in before, which is impressive.

YES YES YES I enjoyed Failsafe but these past few issues, while not bad, haven’t been doing it for me. This issue is as good as any of the Failsafe issues if not better. Batman feels like Batman and is showing this world he’s not to be f**ked with. The pages with Alfred were amazing. Batman against Dredd Dent was great. The set up for future issues seems to be progressing this story nicely as it kicks into a new gear. The art was alright, nothing special, I definitely prefer Jimenez on this book. Great issue nonetheless.

One of my favorite issues in this series so far. Some of King’s finest Batman work, period. I liked the pacing of this issue and how Chance is finally confronting the inevitability of his soon demise. Lots of great character depth from Ice in this one as well. Love him or hate him, Tom King is a damn good writer.

A beautiful issue that delivers closure for one of King’s best written characters. It’s rare to see a title character take the back seat in their own series. This issue closes with a somber and heartfelt victory for both Christopher Chance & Ice.

SPOILERS BELOW A very interesting story that diverts away from the story. A good follow up from the previous issue that explains enough (without ever compromising the future of the series) the ramifications of Peter Parker’s unraveling. We see that with Peter Parker no longer a Spider-Man his origin is rewritten. We see history rewritten as Silk being Earth’s 616 Spidey hero. Really intriguing stuff by Dan Slott here.

Even without Dan Mora this issue continues to be one of the best things in comics today. Everything just flows so nicely. Yes this may be “filler” and the action is sparse, but the dynamics between Dick and Kara, Dick and Bruce, Kara and Kal are just, god they are so good. I felt second-hand embarrassment for Dick in this one. Mark Waid continues to write his best work in years. 12 issues in and this is still a can’t miss book.

What more can I say about this run. Already a classic Moon Knight series, 21 issues run. It feels fresh, the development of characters, especially Reese, has been awesome to see. I’m not going to go in depth but if you’re reading this review debating to read this Moon Knight, start with issue 1 and you won’t regret it.

The debut issue of Superman: Lost effectively establishes the groundwork for a narrative that delves into the humanity of the Man of Steel, in a manner that is sure to captivate readers. The central premise of Superman being stranded away from everything he held dear for a period of 20 years, while only a day has passed on Earth, is compelling and thought-provoking, and serves as an engaging hook for the story. The prospect of exploring how Superman copes with the challenges of being cut off from the everything he knows and loves, as well as the changes that have occurred on Earth during his absence, is an intriguing aspect of this story, and one that is sure to captivate readers. Overall, the debut issue of Superman: Lost effectively sets the stage for an emotionally impactful and engaging narrative, and is highly recommended for fans of the Man of Steel.
