Ohh, what can I say, but the ending......can't wait to see where this one goes!

The Man Of Steel makes a appearance early and late.

[Brendan · Rating 3 out of 5]

This is a scattered storyline that is proving a tough one to get connected to. The over reaching plot is growing into a mess that at a certain point was interesting. If they can't redirect I do suspect I will drop this series.

I liked the relationship between Slade and his ex-wife.
The idea of Man of steel vs Deathstroke is crazy and super cool.

Slade may have bitten off more than he can chew. Next issue should be interesting

I bought the variant cover, which pays homage to "The Death of Superman."
