Brian Bendis did a cool job of bringing a lot of plots together in a way that freed John Romita Jr up to really cut loose in his best work since World War Hulk。 I really enjoyed this。

Do people actually like Romita Jr’s art？ Occasionally it’s。。。alright。 In these issues it’s abysmal。

Um volume extremamente caótico e chato， especialmente nas primeiras edições。 A quebra de ritmo das cenas de ação intercalando com "flashbacks" foi algo um tanto desnecessário， e acho que ter escrito o arco de uma forma mais linear teria sido bem melhor。Fora que a arte não ajuda em nada a disfarçar esses problemas de roteiro。 Se as cenas de ação fossem ao menos minimamente bonitas， acho que daria pra fingir que o caos dessa revista não é tão proeminente。As duas últimas edições ao menos são razoáv Um volume extremamente caótico e chato， especialmente nas primeiras edições。 A quebra de ritmo das cenas de ação intercalando com "flashbacks" foi algo um tanto desnecessário， e acho que ter escrito o arco de uma forma mais linear teria sido bem melhor。Fora que a arte não ajuda em nada a disfarçar esses problemas de roteiro。 Se as cenas de ação fossem ao menos minimamente bonitas， acho que daria pra fingir que o caos dessa revista não é tão proeminente。As duas últimas edições ao menos são razoáveis， mas não significa que sejam grande coisa diante da comparação com as outras edições。。。 。。。more

All I can say about this installment of Bendis's Action Comics run， is bummer。 I really liked "Invisible Mafia"， it was a refreshing new take。 That wasn't an elaborate plan by Luthor or some heavy hitter trying to take on Superman。 Instead we got a more down to earth and intimate look at Superman and his city。 And I am really disappointed that instead of furthering this concept of corruption and power plays for Metropolis that go on right under the boy scouts nose， Bendis focuses on Leviathan。 I All I can say about this installment of Bendis's Action Comics run， is bummer。 I really liked "Invisible Mafia"， it was a refreshing new take。 That wasn't an elaborate plan by Luthor or some heavy hitter trying to take on Superman。 Instead we got a more down to earth and intimate look at Superman and his city。 And I am really disappointed that instead of furthering this concept of corruption and power plays for Metropolis that go on right under the boy scouts nose， Bendis focuses on Leviathan。 I honestly don't like Leviathan。 I think their evil plan makes no sense。 And I'm not sure if it was an editorial decision or one that Bendis made himself， but mashing in the Legion of Doom team up with Leviathan was a mistake to lead the plot of this volume。 In my opinion it completely gutted the Invisible Mafia storyline as well was the characters Red Cloud and Queen Pin Leone。 To me Bendis birthed to many ideas when he came over to DC。 And as he's added to the number if plates he was spinning he's gotten worse。 Instead of focusing in on a great concept it seems he's half-assed the back end of his work。One final nail in the coffin， is John Romita Jr。s art。 When his work is good it's good， but 9 times out of 10 it just looks sloppy。 Proportions and angles are always ridiculously off and I just don't care for it。 I'm no great artist but I'm always puzzled when DC promotes a blockbuster story by putting his art as the headliner。 。。。more

Bendis gets credit for GETTING Superman as a character， constructing exciting super-powered battles， and scripting fun conversations。But。（a） I could not care less about the "big mysteries" surrounding Leviathan and Lex Luthor in this series。 Leviathan's cynical worldview is understandable if not unique， but nothing about the plot here is intriguing to me。（b） JRJR's art is terrible。 I've never been a fan of his， but this is awful even for him。 Embarrassing that it made it to print。Yeah， I'm gonna Bendis gets credit for GETTING Superman as a character， constructing exciting super-powered battles， and scripting fun conversations。But。（a） I could not care less about the "big mysteries" surrounding Leviathan and Lex Luthor in this series。 Leviathan's cynical worldview is understandable if not unique， but nothing about the plot here is intriguing to me。（b） JRJR's art is terrible。 I've never been a fan of his， but this is awful even for him。 Embarrassing that it made it to print。Yeah， I'm gonna read the next （and final） volume because I've come this far， but I'm disappointed。 I had high hopes for Bendis's Superman run， but I'll end up remembering it for the way it sputters out。 。。。more

DNF。Abysmal。 Not only Bendis mixed up some events from the continuity and his run on Action Comics， but Romita's art it's awful。 I tried， believe me I did。 It feels rushed and careless。 It's sad， but Action Comics is no more。 DNF。Abysmal。 Not only Bendis mixed up some events from the continuity and his run on Action Comics， but Romita's art it's awful。 I tried， believe me I did。 It feels rushed and careless。 It's sad， but Action Comics is no more。 。。。more

Basic plot: The Legion of Doom attacks with Leviathan and Superboy Conner Kent shows up， leading Superman to investigate his origin。I am less than enthusiastic about this volume。 The story was super jumpy and I kept feeling like I was missing something。 I think that if I were reading some other books at the same time as this one， I might get more， but there were no indicators in the book as to what else to read。 The story did nothing for me。Romita's art is some of the most inconsistent crap I've Basic plot: The Legion of Doom attacks with Leviathan and Superboy Conner Kent shows up， leading Superman to investigate his origin。I am less than enthusiastic about this volume。 The story was super jumpy and I kept feeling like I was missing something。 I think that if I were reading some other books at the same time as this one， I might get more， but there were no indicators in the book as to what else to read。 The story did nothing for me。Romita's art is some of the most inconsistent crap I've seen。 It is outright sloppy and awful at times， especially during action sequences。 Weird face angles， possessed-looking eyes， inconsistent facial features， and more。 I don’t like it。 There were some good moments- honestly both Leone and Red Cloud in human form look good （he does POC well， which is awesome and unexpected）- but he doesn't draw Superman well， which is a bit of a problem considering the title。 。。。more
