Batman / Superman: World's Finest #27

Batman/Superman: Worlds Finest #27 brings the contest that began in the last issue to a close in just as chaotic a matter as it began. Bat-Mite and Mr. Mxyzptlk are beginning to come off as the main protagonists of this arc as they do anything to increase the odds in our heroes and Earths favor. If there is a big if to Doom-Mites endgame, it has yet to be revealed. Read Full Review

Another month, another highly entertaining issue of World's Finest. This is going to make a terrific collected arc and the fun isn't over yet. Read Full Review

What can I say? I read comics to be entertained. I have been reading comics for nearly 50 years and my mind is stuffed with ephemera. The art is just stellar. This book just sings to me. Read Full Review

The writing is great here, especially the amusing interplay between Batman, Superman, and their personal imps, but a lot of the credit for this issue has to go to Dan Mora and guest artist Travis Mercer. There's a fantastic visual flourish this issue as Bat-Mite takes Batman and Superman through the dimensions. Read Full Review

Batman / Superman: World's Finest #27 brings all the fun, excitement, action, adventure, and even a wee bit of fan service nostalgia to give readers the most entertaining superhero comic around. Waid's fast-paced script delivers non-stop cool moments, and Mora's art is peak superhero goodness. Read Full Review

World's Finest #27 is another issue in a long line of excellent stories in what will undoubtedly be viewed as a GOAT run in years to come. Waid's unbridled joy for his subject matter is palpable, and it's clear that Mora and Mercer revel in the opportunity to let their imaginations run wild. Read Full Review

Mora and Mercer craft beautiful art throughout the issue. I love the blending of art styles and how they complement each other in service of the story. Read Full Review

Well, for fans who enjoy lighthearted and comedic superhero adventures, this issue is a fun read. The artwork is fantastic, and the banter between the characters is entertaining. However, those looking for a more serious and suspenseful story might find the focus on humor and the lack of a clear threat underwhelming. Sure. Fans ger hilarious dialogue, beautiful and imaginative artwork, and a fun exploration of the fifth dimension. However, Batman/Superman: World's Finest #27 lacks a sense of urgency and the main villain feels underdeveloped. Overall, its a visually stunning and humorous issue, but it might not be for everyone.

Batman/Superman: World's Finest #27 is a continuation of the previous issue in almost every way. It keeps the same frantic energy and bombastic, over the top action that made the last one so entertaining to read. The individual fights don't always feel important to the story and it can get bogged down at times with the exposition, but the gorgeous artwork and self-aware silliness make those small complaints for anyone interested in some wacky adventures. Read Full Review

Batman/Superman: World's Finest #27 is a Silver Age dopamine kick that lights up the brain. While it won't quite scratch that saccharine, sentimental itch, it certainly delivers on color, action, and zaniness. Read Full Review

Ultimately, Waid delivers a fun issue with the World's Finest crew, but issue #27 suffers from scripting issues that will require a good fix in the next couple of installments. Thanks to Mora and Mercer, the book was able to keep on its feet and continue being a fun and digestible issue. Read Full Review

It's fun. It takes itself seriously without being too serious. It reminds me of what I loved about comics and what I find in manga today. Just for that it deserve a 10.

I am thoroughly enjoying this story. I'm much less a DC guy than a Marvel guy, but all the mites are really fun. The art is fantastic and Waid's writing is excellent as always. When Batman said "I must have been daydreaming" a legit smile cracked my face. Loving it.

What a fun comic! I especially love that Waid digs DEEP into the Silver Age, to a time most readers aren't familiar with, to utilize Jimmy's multiple transformations. And his Bat-Mite was perfect! If the "canon" comics are unfortunately too serious to depict these characters, it's great that there still is a place for them in books like these.

I didnt think I would like this issue too much until I got to the Olsen stuff. That silver age deep lore is what I love about Waid's writing. If you know DC, this issue oozed with great call backs and shows Waid knows and respects the lore. It is why it is the best book DC has right now. Long story short: Do you want some amazing deep lore cuts of the 'Superman's Pal Jimmy Olsen' Silver age stories? If yes this will tickle you pink. Wacky wacky fun!

It’s an assault on the senses, in a good way.

The story is a blast but Mora's art is just breath taking. This is a truly special run with the dynamic duo of Waid and Mora firing on all cylinders.

While the story is over convoluted with Dimensions and Time, the art and characters still work for me
