Batman/Superman #2

plogty's Batman/Superman #2 - Doubletime review

Great Character Portrayals, Minimal Background Illustration

Positive: Pak handles the characters very well, particularly the exchanges between Earth 2 and Earth Prime heroes. Earth Prime Clark's interaction with Earth 2 Clark's parents is emotional and entertaining. Shadows and close-ups of gloomy expressions create a dark atmosphere in which Superman and Batman can convincingly coexist.

Negative: Panel-to-panel close-ups of facial expressions against black backgrounds becomes tiresome. Lee's art highlights the importance of a strong background, something that is taken for granted.

Batman/Superman #2 is far less confusing than the first issue, a common complaint made by readers. Batman/Superman is set to become one of the more interesting of DC's ongoing titles.

COVER ART: 5/5 Even though this cover is not as iconic as issue #1, it is still an incredibly beautiful piece of art by JAE LEE and JUNE CHUNG. I love how Jae Lee illustrates the young country Clark with his short sleeves and boots with his high-water dungarees. He is really able to differentiate the two different timeline characters, with the current versions being more polished and "posh" while the younger versions are more impetuous and raw. This is a masterful execution of pencil and color.S...
