I'm enjoying Morrison's Action Comics run overall, although it certainly is uneven. Bullet points:
Why does Superman go back and forth between the armor and the t-shirt? Does he only wear the t-shirt in Metropolis and switch to the armor when he's with the Justice League?
I really enjoyed the back and forth between Superman and Batman in this issue. It highlighted their differences in a way that didn't become "oh, look how cool Batman is and how much of a boy scout Superman is!"
The Clark is dead storyline is pretty interesting, and grounds a series that's seen too many cosmic complications (Future Superman, Superman from another dimension, Superman in space) that muck up what is the central thing attracting me to Action Comics: the Bruce Springsteen champion of the oppressed. I want to see more of that, and you see hints of Morrison's interest w/ that storyline in this issue).
I really like the Morrison's Clark Kent, and his relationships to Lois and Jimmy. I'm hoping that this storyline gives the comic more room to explore those relationships.
Story: 1 - Poor
Art: 1 - Poor
Art: 1 - Poor
Here’s to being a newbie: I meant to give it 4 starts on both story and art. 🙂
No worries. Morrison’s runs are so polarizing that there are as many 1/1s as 5/5s.
I was confused by the timeframe of the story. If it’s going back to right after the defeat of Brainiac, wouldn’t it be before the foundation of the Justice League? And if it’s after the events of the first arc of JL, why were Green Lantern and Flash surprised that Batman was a billionaire? Since he revealed himself to them in that arc. Aside from this, I really enjoyed the issue anyway.
I was also confused about the back and forth between the armor and the shirt and his involvement with the Justice League already. I enjoyed this issue though and I’m really interested to see where they go with the Clark is dead storyline.
4 and 4 feels right, but I can’t help feeling I’ve read similar stories in years past. And yes, the t-shirts to armor thing was bit confounding.
Am I the only one that thought that this comic jumped around everywhere? Yes it was a lot better then the last couple of action comics but we jumped to the justice league, to some other bad guy that wants to rule the world, and we constantly switch custumes. *Sigh* I’m optimistic that future comics will help explain this randomness but for the series that brought me back into comics and the new 52 I’m disappointed.
i thought action comics was awesome but this one was so confusing first off he was with the justice league in his new suit then later you see him in his old suit. and when was this going on it has to be after super man comics i guess but why was he not his new suit? and why’d he not save that guy as superman he could of done it in no time seeing he can move at the speed of a bullet. i just didnt like this issue sorry
