CCW 2.62: World of New Krypton Review

Superman's powers is not what makes him "special" it is his strength of will to do what is right no matter what and his unwavering moral compass.

But the powers help :)

Hey, guys! Hope you read "Action Comics" issue #875, because it was actually really great!

Greg Rucka's writing was great and the story is better than anticipated, I feel. And Eddy Barrows art is supurb.

I like seeing Chris (Lor-Zod) back, because I was wondering what happened to him after he got sucked back into the Phantom Zone.

Even without Superman, the book still stands on its own and I really thing the "Sleepers" storyline will be entertaining.

I say to everyone check it out

Just read it today Johnnyhorror and I agree. The story was very well written and the art was solid. I'll be sticking with it in the meantime as the premise it sets up looks intriguing.

I actually like the Flamebird & Nightwing story. I thought it was pretty clever of them to disguise their true nature by wearing fake power armor and using grappling hooks to swing around. They totally pwned that sleeper agent thanks to this deception. We rarely see this kind of guile coming from superheroes these days.

i think this is the best comic review show on youtube today. great job fellas!

Thanks budderking! Now go get the professional help you so obviously need.

Are you referring to 52/one year later?

I kind of like the Silver Age superman...when its well done like Alan Moores "Whatever happened to the man of tomorrow" or Morissons All-Star Superman or Geoff Johns recent run.

yeah dc wanted to show what the dcu would be
without the big 3 after infinite crisis now they are doing it again doesnt seem that long ago to me. are there any burning questions you want answerd in terms of what would everyone do if supes, bats, and ww weren't around?

I think the answer is "go on as normal". The world isn't dependent on the Big Three; superheroes typically have to rely on their own resources.

Thanks AirborneBryan! I'd like for us to get our reviews up sooner, but Jose and I usually can't record these segments until the following Sunday, and then it takes me a couple day to edit/upload them.

Welcome aboard and thanks for commenting!
