The most striking thing about this issue, to me, was the art. There seem to be a lot of mid and long-range shots, where the characters are drawn with a lot less detail. That's not a slight against the technique... characters drawn at a distance simply require less detail. Often when this is done, the figures look like angular blobs and the panels feel rushed, but that doesn't seem to be the case here. Although you can't deny that the technique probably sped up the production of the book and kept it on time, so that's a good thing too. Another effect of so many of these kinds of shots is that when you break out of that form into a close-up, it's really striking. The art is very effective in that, as well. As for the story, things seem to be heating up while maintaining the same air of subtlety we've had in the previous three issues. Generally, we can guess where this is going but, as for how it's getting there... the possibilities are wide open. Just the same, there are a lot of hints dropped across the faces of characters and in bits of dialogue which will surely be relevant later. I love the craft of that. Not everything has to be big and explosive to be intriguing. This book is smart without being confusing, and in my opinion, is probably the most consistent Superman book at the moment. I would like to see the action turn up rather soon, but I'm willing to wait rather than have my intelligence insulted by non-sensical fights. Yeah, the GL/Superman fight on the cover (also teased at a recent convention) didn't happen -in THIS issue-, but the way things were laid out, it wouldn't have made sense. In that, I celebrate the restraint.
