    It’s getting close to Halloween so Grant Morrison decided to tell us a ghost story. He’s spent the last few issues of his run on Action Comics giving us origins for the villains in the Anti-Superman Army from issues #5 and 6. With this issue he tells the tale of a Superman nemesis linked to the Phantom Zone which keeps the worst Kryptonian criminals trapped in a wraith-like state. The Phantom Zone is, of course, a recurring concept in the mythology of Superman and it was great to see some of its...

    Krypto 0

    This has been a good series and had a brilliant start. I just feel that it has had too many one-shot issues and needs to focus on more story arcs. Although I say that and the fact this is a one-shot issue I don't mind when like this issue it is amazing. I have really liked Morrison's work over the years and I am sure I will remember this run fondly even if it's not at the top of my favourite Grant Morrison series' list. It's also nice to read a superhero comic book of his after reading his new c...

    Story--It's Halloween in the Fortress of Solitude, and one of the Phantom Zone's prisoners is Haunting Kal-ElGood--This is my favorite Superman comic of the new 52, the art is haunting and Grant Morrison's story-telling is still wonderful-We see more "skeletons in the closet" of Jor-El, so to speak, which is cool, and it's not as past-oriented as Superman #0, and we learn more about the Phantom Zone, how it works and it's history, which only means Zod is right around the corner somewhere.-A new ...

    Haunting Beauty 0

    This cover just doesn't grab me. Most people know by now I have a furious hatred of banners, and overall Superman just looks too big. It's a little generic, and the soft colors in the background aren't very eye catching. Superman's also drawn kind of off, and I might have a dirty mind, but I can't NOT see that hand with the collar as some chick in latex getting ready for some Super-Bondage.After the weird cliffhanger from #12, Grant Morrison is ramping up the suspense by giving us yet ANOTHER si...

    Most touching and awesome issue 0

    This issue is all about revenge and having superman sent to the phantom zone but it ends as a touching issue. If you love Krypto and even if you hate him I guaranteed you after reading this issue you will love him. To be honest I didn't really know much about Krypto but ever since I read this issue that's all I can ever think about. It makes me love my dog so much more. You will see a dog waiting for his master forever and being loyal to him....
