We have cookies and milk Might be seen at that. Sure Hey guys, welcome back to comic in this is your weekly comic book and back issue review Today, I'm doing Superman Strength part two of three. I will tell you right now. I have not read number one or number three yet I found this at geeky out comics. So I picked I went ahead and picked it up I was a little disappointed. It was okay. It was an okay breed. It shows There's a lot of depth to the character of Superman It shows why he always keeps his word why he doesn't lie or anything like that There is quite a bit of humor in this but it's it's pretty cheesy and Maybe if I read the entire story part one two and three I Might like it better, but this was kind of dull We begin with pa can't telling Lois of a time when Clark was just ten years old a Solar eclipse has occurred which showcased the power that Clark would soon have Something happened in issue one that made Clark run He ran and ran for an hour. He ran until he ended up in a major city He thought the city was to peek at Kansas. He discovered a group of kids ganging up on another single kid These kids were bullies and Clark doesn't like bullies He jumps in and helps the kid get away But he's told by the gang that the kid was a criminal He tried to kill the brother of the gang leader Clark agrees to help the group of boys Get the kid and take him to the police But only if no weapons are involved But it turns out the attempted murder was just the latest of a massive back-and-forth between two families Kind of like the Hatfields of McCoy's Which ended with the both boys shooting each other right in front of Clark Clark makes his way to a pay phone and calls Home only to realize he's not in Topeka. He's not even in Kansas anymore, Toto He had run from Smallville to Chicago, Illinois in less than an hour Pau Kent took the little money he had that he couldn't really afford But had to for his son and he flew To Chicago to pick him up at the airport Clark apologized to him said he was sorry for running out of his boundaries He just he was upset and all he wanted to do was run and of course Paws said it was okay. He understood But Clark ultimately decided from then on Always keep his word Before he always said that he'd never run out of his boundaries well this day he had and Now he's learning why it's important to keep his word after this Lois is called to let Scorpelabs for a story that only she would be trusted with Superman's head has been trapped in a portable portal meaning His body's in one place at Lex Corp labs, but his head is somewhere else still attached to his body But it is kind of like the black holes in those old Roadrunner cartoons which Lois actually makes a point to bring it the criminals responsible are teasing the man of steel about his lack of body But suddenly on the news a crisis has announced Lots of flooding overseas Tons of people in trouble Thousands of people could die and if the criminals let it happen when they know Superman could save the people those deaths will be on their hands So Superman convinces the leader of the group to let him go as long as he promises to return and Become just ahead again and of course Superman is always a man of his word so the Criminal leader the gang leader trusts him let's him go help save the people and eventually Superman returns and allows the group to put him back through the portal and Keep him trapped like that the next several pages of this comic play out pretty Pretty intensely with the group Taking Superman's head to Lex Corp and meeting with Lex Luthor. They pretty much they have a proposition for him basically the group the gang leader invented these gloves that could create these portals and and He did so while working at Lex Corp He wants Lex to turn over the rights to those gloves to him and any Any profits he plans on making from it or whatever? and In return they'll become partners in a crime venture. Well Lex created his own pair of those gloves and Decides, you know, what do I need you for? I've got my own Well, that's when the team leader the team leader pulls out this This object which it looks like a small version of metropolis Trap behind an energy dump, but he pulls out a penny from his pocket and Drops it he tells Lex to go look outside And you see a giant penny just come falling down into the river. Of course Lex is pretty much he's got Lex by the short and curly's at this point and Lex is pretty worried So the guy is like okay now either do as I say but or I've got all this other stuff in my pocket I could drop it all nowhere near the water and destroy the entire city So he drops it and Lex having the glove having gloves himself opens portal allow Superman to fly through and He says the Superman Superman go I need your help. You're the only one who can do it save my city So Superman flies off and that's where this issue ends Like I said, I enjoyed the humor and the morality of this story, but It's still pretty disappointing. It is is almost too cliche So I'll give Superman a strength part two of three Which is titled the long run by Scott McLeod from 2005 I'll give it a five out of ten I do plan on getting the other two issues To the story the man who broke Superman's arm and Cloud Spitter just because I'm kind of a completionist and I'd like to read the entire story before I'm Give up make up my final decision on it So there you have it five out of ten for Superman's strength part two the long run If you're feeling up to it go ahead go pick it up I Can't remember how much it was but It's not it's not too terrible much Make your own decision on it It it is what it is, you know You guys go have a good one make sure to hit that subscribe button make sure you hit the like
