The critic's review posted above is for a Supergirl series, not Adventures of Superman.

Superman versus the Mob! First appearance of Bibbo Bibbowski, one of my favourite Superman supporting characters.

Loses half a point for the needlessly sensational and misleading cover headline. This issue also marks the first hint of something going on between Scarlet Witch and Vision: "Before now I've always thought of him as cold...aloof. But I was wrong...so wrong!"

Enjoyable Halloween special with Roy Thomas having some fun with the topical Women's Liberation movement. Plus it has Enchantress messing with people's heads. Also includes cameos from Roy Thomas himself and his wife as Spider-Man and Mrs Fantastic! (She thinks The Avengers is a UK TV show).

Roy Thomas foresee global warming! Love the dramatic cover. I also liked how Silver Age comics made concepts like time travel and parallel universes so simple to grasp (unlike later ages where the mental gymnastics sometimes required to follow what's happening spoil all the fun).

Black Panther's origin issue, and it's pretty good! Just needed more Klaw.

Story idea by Harlan Ellison and guest starring Hulk! It even has an Avengers team of A-listers. A pity then that it's kind of average. Just feels like a long-winded set-up for an Incredible Hulk issue.

This was a pretty good conclusion to the Marvell - Kree storyline. Things are heating up between Vision and Scarlet Witch!

Now I understand what all the hype has been about. The first issue was a bit underwhelming, but is issue 2 the story-telling and characterisation go to another level. I would have given it a perfect 10 but wasn't as blown away by the art as I was by the writing. Page after page of 9 panel layout isn't very dynamic, has a deadening effect on the eye.

Great conclusion to the series. I will miss Gene Luen Yang's writing. Hope he will be back for more issues.

Entertaining, though Lex Luthor makes a series of un-Lex like mistakes in this issue. Also, I just noticed how many of Lex's employees are women. An equal opportunity employer ahead of his time!

Bloodsport is surprisingly vicious, even Lex is horrified by his excesses. And Jimmy Olsen's great in this story.

I always enjoy issues with Bizarro. Also features Lucy Lane, only she's blind and suicidal.
