REVIEW by Brian Fisher
This book, right here is why I read comics. This is THE perfect comic. This is the best Superman has ever been, or probably ever will be. What makes it so perfect, you ask? It's the little things. Like Luthor mixing himself a superpower cocktail right before they strap him into the electric chair, Superman hosing off the "mess" that the sun-eater left, Luthor's nihlistic niece bent on taking over the family business or Clark hurrying back to the office to write his own obituary before the keels over. It's bittersweet that this issue is the second-to-last before the end of the series but by all indications it's going out with a bang.
