Weird Science - Gabe Hernandez
Feb 19, 2025Batman/Superman: World's Finest #36is a fast-paced, surprisingly entertaining read when the Floronic Man appears in an Aquaman story. Mark Waid's talent for mixing heroes in surprising ways pays off yet again, and Adrin Gutirrez's art is a commendably good complement to Dan Mora's style. Read Full Review

Comic Watch - Kevin Rossi
Feb 19, 2025Batman/Superman: Worlds Finest #36 contains a little of everything. There is horror, action, and even romance. The previous issue wasted no time setting up this new arc, but issue #36 elevates the stakes and action to new levels with plenty of surprises along the way. Read Full Review

Supergirl Comic Box Commentary - Anj
Feb 24, 2025This was fun for sure. The subplots really grabbed me more than the villain's plot. After all, Floronic Man wanting vegetation and creating this fake war seems somewhat weak. Couldn't he just grab some? Grow a body out them? Isn't this war too complex. Still, Aquaman's struggles at home and Superman and Lori K-I-S-S-I-N-G makes it all worth it. The art is pretty slick too. Read Full Review

The Aspiring Kryptonian - Sam Rakestraw
Feb 19, 2025Batman/Superman: Worlds Finest #36 takes a little bit to get to the point that the synopsis describes and that can cost some pages, but the entire second act of this issue makes up for it with a spicy twist. Read Full Review

Batman-News - Jackson Luken
Feb 19, 2025The three storylines of this issue each go off on their own, but for the most part manage to stay individually engaging. The Floronic Man fight keeps the reader's attention while the political and romantic subplots simmer along in preparation for next issue when presumably they'll boil over. Read Full Review

Look I am just going to go out on a branch and guess that Lori made the first move that Clark would not be ok with and Roland just got their at a bad time. I think it was pretty clear that she was rather unhappy with her husband being more interested in... killing everyone? Then be a proper leader. Onto the actual story, I am loving it. Floronic man in the ocean with the ocean flora makes a lot of sense. I am surprised this has not been explored early. A great untapped story. Also teh Swampthing vs Floronic in the ocean is nothing something I would have thought of but am very glad to see.

A middle of the road arc in a series that's consistently good, more often than not great.

Good, not great, chapter that jumped around quite a bit. Far from Waid's best work on this title, but still a solid read that moved the story forward.

After a solid part one, this one slows to a crawl and then takes a bit misstep with Supes and Lori. For all that Waid says he knows Supes, he somehow thinks it's possible for the most upright and uptight hero of all to do anything with a married woman. It just doesn't fit.

don't worry readers, in case you can't follow the story the bad guy will just take time out of his day to explain all the moving pieces, thus removing all mystery and intrigue! fortunately we get to see superman and a mermaid hook up
