This issue was a total mixed bag for me. Sophie excels in emotional moments throughout the issue but this whole story arc has become so convoluted and disjointed that the issue felt so bloated with hand wavy solutions that it felt like a jumbled rush of a final issue. We did get some nice emotional beats with the future versions of the turtle fam throughout the arc, but it was a shame to exclude more

This runs been so brutally repetitive and boring which continues here but I give him some credit for a few nice lines and at least moving the story forward (or so I hope).
Black boots trudge across yellow sands. Grit-laced winds flutter through a tattered cape. Dreamlike mirages of past, present, and hypothetical futures ripple across the sunbaked landscape, the mystery of their appearance only equaled by the question of their existence. This is the Dark Knight's world now, but it doesn't have to be. He can save hims...
Though this series tends to get a little hand wavy with explanations, it's so much fun and Williamson has a great feel for the arrow fam that this is one of my favorite current books at DC. So hyped to have Mia back and can't wait for more details on where she's been.

• Can Ironheart build one in time?
• Who will answer the call?
RATED T+
Great issue that perfectly captured the essence of what this book was capable at when at it's best, a fun cheesy action story with the scoundrels in the Star Wars universe. The problem with the series was that it would get diluted with too many new characters constantly being thrown at you without you ever giving you a reason to get invested in these characters or it would drag on side stories witmore

More out of character writing. I tire of this.
My 4 points go to Marchs great art. 0 to King and that is generous. I should deduct for his trash.
FOR THE BATMAN WHO HAS EVERYTHING! Amidst their adventures as Superman and Wonder Woman, Clark and Diana take a thrilling journey into space to get a birthday gift for their dear friend Bruce.
I just...I.... wtf was this? I give it points for art and that's about it. I read this because it had Superman on the cover and hoped King would be better at writing Clark than he is Diana but that was not to be. I know what he was going for here and I really wish he had succeeded but this just feels hollow. It's like he's writing to impress his mother.
FOR THE BATMAN WHO HAS EVERYTHING! Amidst their adventures as Superman and Wonder Woman, Clark and Diana take a thrilling journey into space to get a birthday gift for their dear friend Bruce.
This issue was a slog to read and I really didn't jive with King's voice for Superman especially (though not as painful as his voice for Damian & Jon). He's clearly trying to recapture the fun of Date Night (which I really liked) but failed with constant goofy lines from Superman and writing Clark very generic as if he doesn't know Bruce like a brother. So many bad jokes and lines that just made nmore

Rated T+
Started out good and I was excited to see Luke cleanse the crystal but once he enters the "evil" memories of the kyber the story really drops off. After all the warnings of this extremely dark all encompassing pain from the memories he'd endure, we're left with a very mundane boring alt reality that is just boring let alone threatening. Still decent overall but I really hope the story picks up sigmore
