    Reunion of the Century!


    Well, Superboy's back and well... What shall he do now? Why you may have guessed! Reunite with the Outside world and call his ex-girlfriend to tell her he's alive! 
     
    This issue was probably the best of the series and I do not regret picking it up from the news stands. 
     
    By the end of the issue, Superboy and Wonder Girl reunite after she tells him she cheated on him with his best friend while he was dead. Seeing how he reacted made me love him so much more since he's like the perfect man! (Like a Boyscout, remind you of anyone? Maybe a big red S? No?) And says that it's simply normal: he was dead. 
    I was even more astonished when he APOLOGIZED to her for dying! 
     
    Anyways, you should DEFINATELY pick this issue, the artwork is AMAZING *it looks like the book was made for the artist and vice versa* and the story was great. 
     
    The Second Feature pretty much sucked since it wasn't continuing the last one and started another story, featuring Lightning Lad. Mekt tells him he actually does have a twin and wants Rokk to go find him. 
     
    The issue pretty much ends on a cliffhanger even though we know the next issue won't be featuring the next part but skip to the next Legion Story.

This is a very sweet book. That's not to say that Adventure Comics is sugary tales of Conner and Krypto frolicking and eating Ma Kent's pie, but it is enjoyable and fairly light. There are some big issues explored and conflict does e...

      DC Strikes Gold with Adventure Comics 0

      I know this is only issue #2 but I've been loving the new Adventure Comics. The return of Conner Kent to the proper DCU has been nothing short of stellar thanks to some exceptional writing from Geoff Johns and great artwork from Francis Manapul. In an industry where most comics tend to focus on costumed heroes beating up bad guys (which is great, BTW), this is turning out to be one of the sweetest titles around. You have Conner laying low in Smallville, hanging out with Ma' Kent and Krypto and j...
