My most highly anticipated book of the week does not disappoint at all. Geoff Johns is writing the hell out of this arc and Gary Frank sure is keeping pace with the pencils. On top of getting the awesome revelation about the true identity of Brainiac we get bits and pieces from all the other plot points Johns has set up. He didn’t spend too much time in one place but instead left at just the right moments. The scenes with Supergirl are great again, and the cast of the Daily Planet perfectly adds just the hint of humor this arc needs because after all this is a gloomy story Johns is telling. Above all else this is perhaps what Johns is doing best in this arc, creating that sense of coming terror which we see on the faces of everybody including the Man of Steel himself.

Story: 4 - Very Good
Art: 5 - Excellent
