Jun 18, 2025There is a ton going on in this issue, including the return of an iconic supervillain. It really feels like Dan Slott was made to write Superman he gets the vibe of Metropolis and Superman's supporting cast perfectly already. Read Full Review

Nerd Initiative - Ken M.
Jun 18, 2025Supermans challenges to adapt take center stage as the Kryptonite King starts his reign. Slott throws many swerves into the mix with the writing. Albuquerque & Maiolo bring out the emotion as the uncertainty of the present is defeating the Man of Steel. This story is one all Superman fans dont want to miss. Read Full Review

KPB Comics - Neil King
Jun 19, 2025Superman Unlimited #2 is a strong, ambitious follow-up that firmly solidifies the series' direction. This series is clearly aiming to tell a different kind of Superman story, with its high-concept Kryptonite geopolitics, innovative new powers, and the Daily Planet's elevated global role as a bastion of truth. This book is a statement about what Superman can be in the 21st century. Read Full Review

AIPT - Collier Jennings
Jun 18, 2025Superman Unlimited #2continues to shake up Superman's world, whether it's with a new power or the new threat of a world lush with Kryptonite. It also teases the reappearance of a classic Superman foe, who will probably prove to be an unexpected menace for the Man of Steel. Read Full Review

Graphic Policy - Brett
Jun 18, 2025Superman Unlimited #2 is that comic that's a fine edition to the read pile but it's not one you'll be going back to over and over. It's entertaining but not exciting. It's a perfectly fine Superman story so far, but one that feels like it's a story arc in-between the major storylines and events. Superman Unlimited #2 is good but its slow start doesn't quite hook readers. Read Full Review

The Fandom Post - Chris Beveridge
Jul 23, 2025Nope, this just didn't work for me at all. And it's going with Toyman in the next issue? It's just a lot of stuff being thrown at you, and I can't imagine it feeling like a cohesive read for someone new to the character or comics in general. This is not what a retailer will recommend to a new reader. And to a long-established reader like myself, it comes across as just noise. I wanted to go into this liking it because I enjoy Superman as a character a lot, but nothing here worked for me at all and it doesn't make me want to come back for more. Read Full Review
