This is what some might call a f*ck you five. Only reason it's not a 1/10 is because of the art and the brief warm fuzzy feelings I got when Bendis is completely ignoring both established Rebirth continuity AND his own continuity established in his other Super book. He has spent 19 issues now doing what exactly? Split up the SuperFam for no apparent reason except to age up Jon Kent, and tell everyone that Jor-el/Oz is crazy. That's it! Sure, he spent a good chunk of time teasing Rogol Zaar, but he never made him a compelling villain beyond being a genocidal strongman - and then he made it all moot when he sucked earth out of the phantom zone at the end of #6. Then he billed this issue as the one where we - finally - find out about what Jon's been up to... Only to tell us what he was doing with Lois! We should've been given this snippet of the story over in Action 1004, as there is no f*cking way Clark's first questions after he reunited with Lois wouldn't have been about Jon. Bendis is spinning his wheels, there is no story here. I'm so upset with how much time and money I've wasted on this run I kind of hate myself at the moment. Even as I write this a 5 feels generous, but Superman is my favorite character so Bendis has gotten a longer leash that he would've on any other character. Sadly, I think it's time to officially remove both books from my pull
