    This is a great look at an era of Atlantis we really haven't seen much of, and many of its plot elements are actually dovetaliling into the current Aquaman book by Jeremy Adams. The timeline in this book shifts back and forth a good deal, so I'm hopeful Waid has a lot more ground to cover in it. Read Full Review

    The Floronic Mans takeover of the deep seas concludes with a fantastic finish. Waid deals with many egos as the fight for good takes a dive. Gutirrez and Herms construct phenomenal panels as the story ramps up on the action. Arguably the best superhero book at the LCS right now. Read Full Review

    Batman/Superman: World's Finest #37 is a strong closer to the brief arc of Batman, Robin, and Superman's Atlantean adventure. Read Full Review

    The Aspiring Kryptonian - Sam Rakestraw

    Mar 19, 2025

    Batman/Superman: Worlds Finest #37 rounds it back to Aquaman for some arc closure with a tale of two kings that gets us to care about this Atlantis cast, who are worthy of their own series within the Aquaman mainline. Read Full Review

    Can you imagine! I felt bad for Ronal! I was rooting for him! I was happy for him! Words I never thought I'd say. So overall a fun issue with good character moments even if the super-hero plot felt almost extraneous. Love the bubble effects and ben-day dots and all the other stuff Gutierrez used to spice up the proceedings. Read Full Review

    Batman-News - Jackson Luken

    Mar 19, 2025

    All of the storylines for this arc get wrapped up in nice little bows, but perhaps they could have used more time to feel fully fleshed out. There are a lot of big, high level concepts for a comic to cover in only three issues, and in order to finish on time many conflicts are resolved within a few pages, if not a single conversation. That being said, the overall adventure is still fun as the comic often is, especially the primary plot of the battle against Professor Woodrue. Read Full Review

    The Batman Universe - Scott Waldyn

    Mar 22, 2025

    Batman / Superman: World's Finest #37 brings the 20,000 League storyline to a muddy, yet colorful, close. There's an attempt at heart, but this is easily one of the weaker stories in this series. Read Full Review

    Not really sure why the harsh critiques of this issue. The kiss was clearly a fake out last issue, Superman wasnt in the wrong, and we get a great conversation between Lori and her husband and some great perspectives on how they communicate and how that affects relationships (honestly I dont think people realize how cool it is to be reminded that yeah if you are a telepathic species your relationships are fundamentally different from humans. It is really nice to be reminded of that and it helps explain characters actions). Floronic man beat by magic was a nice touch to show how he could have so much power vs Superman and Batman but crumble to the might of Atlantis. All in all this was a well written story with a lot of moving parts more

    This happens to be my 4000th review, and what better way to celebrate this than with Batman and Superman, who happen to be my top 2 favorite superheroes of all time. The art is solid, the pacing and action is great and the story was interesting. Mark Waid finally found his groove, and he's going to be the architect or the big figures based on impact of 2020 DC Comics. It's pretty clear that he has a big role in leading DC's All In, and I am excited to see what's next. I'm enjoying this series, and I know when this series is going to conclude I am going to be glad that I read it since the beginning.

    OK, I guess I should have trusted Waid to make sure Superman's moral compass is working. But the story is both slight and overstuffed.

    I had dropped this title several months ago. Then I saw Aquaman on a sea horse and decided to pick it up. I am a huge Aquaman fan. Unfortunately, the Aquaman I saw on the cover was not actually in the book. I'm not even sure what this was about. Floronic Man was controlling Swamp Thing underwater. To what end? I'm not sure. Superman cannot breathe underwater, therefore, he cannot speak underwater. He can simply hold his breath for a really long time. It begins with Superman kissing a married mermaid, who is having marital troubles. This was all too weird for me. Needless to say, I re-dropped the title.
