The conclusion of the story sees Superman pursuing Doomsday for a final confrontation as the fate of an entire world hangs in the balance.
This book gets off to a fairly poor start when Superman is given a brand new outfit... an outfit made up of belts and pouches in the style of the worst 90s comic book designs. He looks ridiculous, but I suppose I should be glad that the outfit hides his mullet.
The book does get better, however, as we see that even with his new suit and its gizmos, Superman is still unable to fight Doomsday to a standstill. In fact, due to his ability to adapt countermeasures to his vulnerabilities, Doomsday continues to get more powerful as the book goes on. This means that Superman has to figure out an unconventional way of neutralising the monster.
It has to be said, though, that there just isn't the same impact and stakes in this battle between the two characters as there was in 'The Death of Superman' (reviewed here), so it comes off as a little anticlimactic.

Nice conclusion to the three issue Superman/Doomsday: Hunter/Prey miniseries. Superman (SM) puts aside his fear of Doomsday (DD) and prepares for final battle! It is clear that SM can't beat DD by force alone; he must come up with another way to 'fight the unbeatable foe' - and he can't do it alone. Those interested in how DC Comics handle time travel will also find this book interesting.

En la línea de La muerte de Superman, esta historia fluye ágil, pocos cuadros, dibujos grandes, buena machaca.
