Batman / Superman: World's Finest #43

Batman/Superman: World's Finest #43 wraps up "Bizarro World Tour" with a flurry of action, exposition and humor that explores the concept Bizarro World and its citizens as more than just flawed, distorted reflections of the DCU. And as with every issue in this series, Batman Superman: World's Finest #43 is a joy to read. Read Full Review

Batman / Superman: World's Finest #43 continues capturing Silver Age fun with plenty heart. The entire arc was skillfully written by Mark Waid and brought to life by an incredibly talented creative team. The climax and solution to the planet ending threat is a lot of fun, and somehow makes sense even on a planet where nothing makes sense. Read Full Review

Batman/Superman: Worlds Finest #43 avoids the same traps that previous concluding arc issues fell into. It also reminds us that superheroes rescue, and advert disasters as opposed to just beating and subduing villains, even though we often like to see the latter. Read Full Review

Bizarro Superman could never leave his best friend. So down the hatch with the cure. Overall this was a fun story that included some great moments. This ending touched on all the key points. And I was pretty impressed with the tight rope of silliness and seriousness. But much of the major plot stuff happens magically ... the planet saving, the cure, etc.  Read Full Review

The Bizarro World arc wraps up by keeping the same sense of lighthearted absurdity that has marked the rest of the story, but with an added dose of emotional sincerity. While the actual plot still rushes past so fast you might miss it, what makes the story worthwhile are the endearing character moments. Read Full Review

The whole issue was basically "how to save Bizarro World" which frankly, went on way too long and got boring, not to mention very convoluted. In addition, I don't recall it ever being established that there were Bizarro copies of ordinary Earth citizens other than a handful, and yet Bizarro Supermans' here are a "tiny fraction of the populace." Also, some of the 'opposites' are ridiculous: like that Bibbo, a mixologist on Earth, would have a Bizarro double who is a genius chemist. Waid took this 'opposite' thing to a ridiculous degree, and I say that as a fan of Bizarro stories.
