After following countdown most of the way through we seem to finally really pick up with 24. Hopefully this one won't turn into another offshoot like we've seen with the search for pym, or the highly anticipated arena. I want to see this new "evil" superman and what he does to Earth 1. The biggist down fall of this series has been that I have a hard time caring about what is happening to most of the characters, none of them simply appeal to me. But this new superman is reminescent of Superboy Prime and his view on the world. I hope that this will not simply be a rehashing of Infanite Crisis.

Countdown finally hits a bullseye with this issue. Superman Prime arrives on Earth 15 and kills that world's Superman brutally and then engages in battle with the rest of this Earth's heroes. Prime kidnaps the Earth 15 Lex Luthor and flys him up to the atmosphere killing him. He flies through Earth 15's core and blows it to kingdom come.

This issue was great. With Superman Prime finally proving just how dangerous and psychotic he really is, the entire Multiverse is in danger. And with Prime's new found power from his battle in the Sinestro Corps War, Countdown has just become fantastic.
