Superman will always help someone in need, but since he was thrown into the future, his first priority has been to rescue Otho and Osul-Ra.

The Aspiring Kryptonian - David Beasley
May 06, 2026One of the things I love about PKJ is his approach to world building. We only have 4 issues left and it still reads like it could be an ongoing by how rich the setting continues to develop. The shear scope of it all could feel daunting and forgetable, but instead we’re getting a great Superman tale that deals with his vast legacy in a fun and epic way in Adventures Of Superman: Book Of El #8.

If you're looking for something bold, cosmic, and deeply rooted in Superman's legacy, this is a journey worth joining. Read Full Review

Supergirl Comic Box Commentary - Anj
May 11, 2026There are so many moving parts in the book among characters I am still not completely familiar with so this book remains a bit of a well-rendered cipher. I wonder if it would make more sense read in a batch rather than a month between chapters. Read Full Review
