A pleasure to read as always. The unsung hero of the Absolute line. Although Absolute Batman is easily my favourite, this run has the daunting task of being successful in its shadow. I feel it exceeds every month. Jason Aaron has really become such a valuable asset to DC. Flailing Marvel likely wish they still had him on their roster.

Once again, I really enjoyed an issue of Absolute Superman. It's the comic I look forward to reading the most every month. I loved this issue as always. Rafa Sandoval’s art, which is always solid, felt even better here. I liked the development for both Black Adam and Hawkman. And it’s always great to see Superman saving people, even in situations where the odds are completely stacked against him. Plus, this issue was a total showcase for cool capes and Hawkman’s wings definitely count in this case too, haha. more

Really good. I feel like a lot of this book is on the cusp of greatness, but just falling slightly short of achieving that. Abomination was the main realization of said level, really. There's a lot that I really enjoy here. I especially liked Jim's funeral and Barbara's interaction with the Robins there, as well as the first meeting between Bruce Wayne and Jack Grimm. The latter of those was rathe r short, but I also don't think it necessarily needed to be some long, drawn-out thing. As a matter of fact, it's probably better that it wasn't, as they're likely to have longer interactions in the future. In any case, those were both strong highlights of the issue. That said, the opening fight between Batman and the Robins was cool and enjoyable, but also one I found to be a bit underwhelming. Additionally, I did like the conversation between Waylon, Eddie, Harvey, and Ozzie (just now realizing that 3/4 of them have an "e" sound at the end of their (nick)name, by the way), but there were certain spots I feel could have been written better. I appreciated them getting their villain names, though I think there could have been more organic way to bring those up, whether in this issue or in the future. All of that said, I'm still really enjoying this for what it is, and I'm definitely looking forward to what's next.more

Snyder and Dragotta just keep cooking with this.

Most I've enjoyed Marvel in some time. Hickman is their best writer by a significant margin. It feels like Spider-man comics are having a bit of a renaissance. The mainline series has massively improved lately and now this. Marvel have been trounced so brutally by the Absolute line, it's nice to see some fight in them.

Superb

This should be called absolute black canary. But aside from that, wonderful.

Proof that miserable conservatives are not the demographic for this comic.

i did not really have any connections to Rick Veitch's run because I haven't read it. So when I read this, this was very confusing. I think I am going to hold off on reading this series until I read Rick Veitch's run on Swamp Thing

i am soooo happy!!!!
