A wonderful debut. Every character is so vivid and compelling. The ending really makes me eager to read the next issue, and the art is absolutely beautiful.

I really enjoyed this. I think the best part is that it's a great story even without the gimmick of being a DC story set in a fantasy world. The fantasy elements are just the icing on the cake, but the icing happens to be really good in this instance. Taylor does a great job of giving this faithful elements of both fantasy and superhero storytelling without sacrificing either. The art is really beautiful too. The designs of the characters in particular are amazing.

This is a pretty solid issue. I've always enjoyed montages of Superman saving people, and although that element of this issue may have lasted a bit long, I still enjoyed it. The chemistry between Jon and the other guy is really good, but I still wish their romance could be built up a bit more because the kiss felt a little abrupt and random. I honestly really enjoy the art. It's vibrant and it captures the youthful energy of the comic with just the right dash of maturity.

This is a decent start. My favorite part is the art, which feels very epic and cinematic. For whatever reason, the main concept of this series doesn't really appeal to me. This issue is mainly setup, and while I'm curious to see where it leads, nothing in this debut really wowed me.
