After the shocking events of DC K.O., Superman is missing. But one hero steps up to take his place…Superboy Prime?! Normally, Prime has only been part of massive DC events, but now he gets a real shot at showing the world he can be just as great a hero as Superman! Superman #36 kicks off a new direction for the series as a new Superman takes center stage.
Superman has been a series I’ve read off and on over the decades, rarely lasting for a long time. My knowledge of Superboy Prime is very limited beyond he’s done some horrible stuff. So, going into Superman #36 was pretty much a blank page as this version of Superman has taken over as the original one has disappeared at the end of the recent event DC K.O. Generally, the issue does a good job of catching up readers with what they need to know about Superboy Prime as he gets settled into his new life and attempts to shed his questionable past.
Joshua Williamson keeps the comic moving with a wink throughout the issue. There’s a lot of talk about Superboy Prime’s knowledge of the DC characters, who are just comics in his world, giving the series a fourth wall breaking vibe that we’ve seen in Deadpool and especially Gwen-pool who also have similar concepts baked within. But, there’s something a bit more going on here in the small details, for instance Lois’ outfit which is similar to a popular one from the recent Superman film. The comic is aware of the fun it can have and goes all in with swooning women, and a main character with a massive ego and not much of a clue. This is the asshat we want to see if he can redeem himself but also features a big ominous flashing warning underneath it all.
As mentioned, the art has fun with the concept of the comic. Dan Mora‘s work with color by Alejandro Sanchez and lettering by Ariana Maher pops. It’s clear that the team is having fun here with so many references and small details that show off just a love of Superman comics and history. Lois’ outfit mentioned above, certain poses, comic covers, it all comes together for a comic that has a hell of a lot of fun with itself and concept. The action looks great, the characters, just everything about this shines and shows off why Mora is such a beloved artist.
Superman #36 is fun. It takes an overused concept and unlikeable character and delivers it all at a level and in a way that you want to come back. It breaks the mold in some ways in expectations and just goes all out with its concept while not going over the top with it. It’s a joke to read that delivers pop culture excitement and entertainment.

LEGENDARY CREATORS TAKE ON THE MAN OF STEEL AND YOUR FRIENDLY NEIGHBORHOOD SPIDER-MAN! Written by Mark Waid, Tom King, Matt Fraction, Sean Murphy, Gail Simone, Christopher Priest, Greg Rucka and Jeff Lemire Art by Jorge Jimenez, Jim Lee, Steve Lieber, Sean Murphy, Belen Ortega, Daniel Sampere, Nicola Scott and Rafa Sandoval The Last Son of Krypton meets your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man!
When journalists Clark Kent and Peter Parker find themselves chasing the same story, the conspiracy they uncover could change the world — especially if Brainiac and Doctor Octopus have anything to say about it. (And we bet they do!) Good thing our intrepid newshounds are secretly Superman and the amazing Spider-Man. Brought to you by legendary storytellers Mark Waid and Jorge Jimenez.
And don’t miss these bonus stories: Tom King and Jim Lee tell a tale of Lois Lane and Mary Jane Watson. Matt Fraction and Steve Lieber revisit Superman’s pal Jimmy Olsen… and Carnage! Sean Murphy, meanwhile, takes us to the future with Superboy (Legion) and Spider-Man 2099. Gail Simone teams up with Belen Ortega for a look at what happens when Power Girl meets Punisher. Christopher Priest and Daniel Sampere show us a time when Superboy Prime (who reads all the comics) decided to visit Spider-Man right after he got the black suit. Greg Rucka and Nicola Scott take us on an exciting race — between the Daily Planet and the Daily Bugle. Plus, we finally get to answer the age-old question of who would win in a fair fight, Pa Kent or Uncle Ben! Just kidding, those guys are too nice to fight each other, but Jeff Lemire and Rafa Sandoval will take us deep into the past to see the two men bond in the face of adversity. Celebrate 50 years of DC/Marvel crossovers with eight new original stories by some of DC’s top talent!
In the melee that started with dozens of heroes and villains vying for their chance to win the ultimate power in the universe, now only one remains! But to truly be crowned the King Omega, you must battle more than the obstacles in your path…you must battle yourself. It’s the finale to end all finales as the one true champion is crowned, the fate of all that lives hangs in the balance, and a shocking decision will bring the DC Universe to the next level. We would type more, but honestly, anything else is a spoiler—so suit up, get ready, and leap into the final round! DC K.O. #5 wraps up the event with an interesting concept but overall a hollow finale.
The King Omega has been crowned and they must battle Darkseid for the fate of all of reality, past, present, and future. DC K.O. #5 is the culmination of months of stories heading up by Scott Snyder and Joshua Williamson and an event that at times has been fun but overall, a bit of a headscratcher. This issue is a prime example of that. It opens with the King Omega crowned. We’re not spoiling who but when we left everyone in DC K.O. #4 that had happened and we flashed to another time to see the corruption of Booster Gold. DC K.O. #5 dives into the next round as the King Omega must face a giant Darkseid who has gone all kaiju. From there, it’s a battle through time as the champion and Darkseid punch it out for the fate of everything.
Visually, the comic is great with some very memorable moments of two combatants slugging it out literally through time. But, the comic leaves things a bit unsettled as a lot is unanswered as to the how and impact of it all and teases of yet another “Crisis” event to come. That’s the headscratcher, DC K.O. #5 doesn’t feel so much of a finale as just a resting point until the next major “Crisis” event. It’s a chapter in a very connected storyline. But, this teased storyline feels like something we’ve seen before with DC’s Metal concept and the Dark Multiverse. We get far more than just that with hints at “Next Level,” the launch of new series and characters getting the spotlight, plus storylines and possible other series yet to be announced.
The art is pretty solid. Javi Fernández, Xermánico, and Wes Craig handle different points of the story creating visuals that feel epic. Two combatants literally battling through time feels massive in the scope of it all though the fighting lacks a bit of a punch as far as the damage Darkseid does with his barrage. The trio are joined by Alejandro Sánchez on color and Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou for lettering and together the comic looks good.
DC K.O. #5 goes for big swings and ideas as two titans battle. It doesn’t really hit at an emotional level when it should. It’s surface level entertainment missing a depth to really connect readers. It also reads as incomplete with a “to be continued” type ending as opposed leading to a new beginning and fresh start. Like recent DC events, DC K.O. comes off as one for the diehard fans invested in the meta story and who get excited when they see “Crisis” dropped on the comic page.
Three mysterious new Omega-charged fighters have entered the tour nament…and this trinity of the Absolute will change the face of the DCU forever! It’s all down to how far the final four are willing to go to win in the penultimate chapter of DC K.O.! Plus: Booster’s true allegiance revealed, Darkseid’s return foretold, and a bonkers last page that will bring the battle to the next level! DC K.O. #4 delivers what readers have been waiting for since the beginning of this event.
When DC K.O. debuted, it teased an eventual showdown between Absolute Superman, Wonder Woman, and Batman, and the contestants. Issue after issue, it’s a thread that has been absent from the story, until now. But, why is this trio on the side of Darkseid? Who will win? DC K.O. #4 delivers all of that and more as the event begins to wind down towards the final battle.
Written by Scott Snyder and Joshua Williamson, DC K.O. #4 is a fun issue that sort of sticks to the formula of new level and boss battle. And that formula has generally worked delivering an event that feels epic and popcorn fun rolled into one. Four contestants remain as Superman, Wonder Woman, Lex Luthor, and Joker have to face off with a Booster Gold infused Darkseid and his trio of warriors and the battle is entertaining. Yes, the comic sticks to the formula of heroes battling it out before teaming up, but it gives good reason as to the motivations and causes of all of this. There’s also enough twists and turns to keep readers on their toes.
The art by Javi Fernandez and Xermanico continues the bombastic style of the series that feels like Capcom making a new brawler featuring just DC characters. They’re joined by Alejandro Sanchez on color and letterer Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou. The art is entertaining and the battles feel fierce and epic as expected. What’s particularly great is the overall ominous feel of Darkseid’s forces and the flashback where we get to see how his warriors were recruited is fantastic with some great page layouts. There’s some small quibbles like the size of Absolute Batman that grows (can easily be explained by Omega energy) but his height doesn’t line up with what we’ve seen in the recent Absolute Batman/Wonder Woman crossover.
DC K.O. #4 doesn’t break any ground but it’s a fun blockbuster. There’s a lot going on and it does a solid job of telling and showing the why and how of it all while delivering punches. The issue has some solid surprises as well that adds to the enjoyment and “comic book” feel of it all. DC and its team have put together an event that’s a summer blockbuster on the printed page that delivers crazy concepts and great visuals that allow you to sit back and just enjoy.
IT’S TAG-TEAM TIME! As the Omega Tournament reaches its endgame, the final eight combatants are put to the ultimate test–confronted with a decades-long stay in their own personal hell! Emotions run high as heroes falter, villains revel, and the Heart of Apokolips eyes its new King Omega. In the end, only the final four will remain… DC K.O. #3 delivers a new round and a new challenge as the remaining contestants must pick a partner and battle it out.
This event, so far, has been an intriguing one. On the surface it’s simply a tournament that feels very influenced by classic video game fighting games. It also dips into motivations and the drive for each participant as they battle to become the champion. DC K.O. #3 creates a new twist to the formula, opening up with a tease of a possible world if Superman won the tournament. There’s been a focus on Superman throughout the event and his holding back and the impact of that. A person of immeasurable power, he could bring peace, he could really stop evil and suffering… so why hasn’t he?
Written by Scott Snyder and Joshua Williamson, DC K.O. #3 is a fun comic that gets interesting because of who each contestant picks. Some are obvious choices, while others are more intriguing in the strategy. What’s nice is, the comic keeps you guessing with power combos and moves that feel like they come out of nowhere in a good way. This isn’t a “battle comic” that just has a lot of punches or weapons used, there’s surprises and deep thought put into each battle and how they play out. And, they add depth to the characters. We get to examine how they think a bit more and the relationships many of them have. It delivers action but also something a little bit more.
The art by Javi Fernandez and Xermanico with color by Alejandro Sanchez and lettering by Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou looks solid. The comic really feels epic at times taking a little bit of inspiration from video games, especially what feels like Capcom’s fighting series. The visuals make you hear “Fight” as the battles begin with a “KO” as they end. That is blended in with the style you’d expect from a DC comic to make something that has a little bit more excitement and energy to it. Fernandez and Xermanico are talented, but the subject matter/style of story really makes their work pop. Sanchez’s colors and Otsmane-Elaou’s lettering add the icing and cherry really delivering that last bit of energy and excitement to the visuals.
DC K.O. #3 is a fun comic that feels like a nice mix of DC epic event and video game beatdown. It’s just entertaining fun so far with an epic, world threatening back story that teases at least some changes when it’s all over. Right now, it’s delivering a nice balance of surface fun with a little more just underneath.
The tournament is in full swing. Heroes have fallen. Darkseid is near. The 32 champions have been chosen, and now they must compete to earn the Heart of Apokolips. The first challenge? Battling across a deadly arena to acquire new weapons of war. The greatest powers of the DC Universe are up for grabs, and whoever holds them will advance to the next level. Superman has his doubts that the Justice League is doing the right thing, but there are others who have no problem killing to get what they want… DC K.O. #2 is packed with action and some very unexpected twists and turns.
I’ll admit, when I first saw DC K.O. #2 teased, I rolled my eyes a little. On its surface it feels like something we’ve seen many times before, a tournament featuring heroes and villains for some world changing prize. It’s a concept done many times over and the bracket and art mixed in a video game like feel to this take. But, then I read the first issue and it packed some surprises. Batman didn’t make it through the first round. There was an interesting focus on Superman and his role in the bigger scheme of things. And the kick-ass art helped.
DC K.O. #2 continues that interesting focus on Superman and so much more. The second round is here and the 32 contestants are competing to find 16 items of power. Think Wonder Woman’s lasso or a Green Lantern ring. It’s a race where anything goes and boy does it. While so many characters scramble to get an item and make it to the next round, writers Scott Snyder and Joshua Williamson continue to center the event around Superman and how far he’ll go to save everyone. And he goes far.
While examining who Superman/Clark is inside, the comic puts the character through a brutal battle with Lex Luthor who goes to the extreme and takes things to the next level. DC’s “All In” has generally brought a rather positive and altruistic, bright, feel to the DC Universe, DC K.O. #2 delivers the grim and dirty vision of that with death and destruction… and the loss of a hand. No, Aquaman doesn’t get his hook back… It’s a shocking event that’s unexpected and twisted in so many ways but also pushes one character in a way we haven’t seen before. Without spoiling things, it’s very uncharacteristic of them and makes the series even more intriguing.
The art by Javi Fernández and Xermánico with color by Alejandro Sánchez and lettering by Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou pops. The issue, for the most part, is one giant battle as the heroes and villains rush to get their prizes. It opens up though with the continued relaxing moment of Bruce, Clark, and Diana, The art between the two is interesting with one having such a calm and chill factor to it, while we’re rushed into the next battle which is pretty non-stop until the end. The wholesome nature of one’s visuals are betrayed by the rough and destructive nature of the other. Superman particularly looks great, along with Lex, the both really hitting the drama and emotions, and general anger between the two.
DC K.O. #2 is a solid second issue that took an intriguing figure issue and will get readers to really go all in for the third. There’s something far more here than just a beat-em-up event, and no, not that ending. It delivers at the surface level all of that but underneath, it’s teasing something far more interesting.
The second big Marvel/DC crossover this year features a fifth dimension/fourth wall shattering lead Batman/Deadpool story from Grant Morrison, Dan Mora, and Alejandro Sanchez as well as four individual team-up tales ranging from great (Tom Taylor, Bruno Redondo, and Adriano Lucas are the perfect team for a Nightwing/Laura Kinney Wolverine crossover comic.) to good (It’s great to have new Amanda Conner interior art, but her, Mariko Tamaki, and Tamra Bonvillain‘s Hulk/Harley Quinn story has big “lol so random energy). The crossover explores the differences and similarities between the Marvel and DC Universes, connections between heroes, and in Morrison’s case, they mine their past as a writer and previous intercompany crossover. Let’s just say that Animal Man and bidders on the Gerry Conway/Ross Andru/uncredited house art fixer uppers’ Superman vs The Amazing Spider-Man are in for a good time.
I have a love/hate relationship with the lead Batman/Deadpool story, “The Cosmic Kiss Caper”. This would be a story that I would have died laughing over back in the day with my freshman roommate and our twin comic book collections of Grant Morrison JLA and Action Comics issues, Daniel Way Deadpool trade paperbacks, and various Marvel/DC intercompany crossovers. (Ron Marz and Darryl Banks’ Green Lantern/Silver Surfer slapped!) Morrison uses Deadpool’s fourth wall obliterating, over-caffeinated joke-a-minute personality to flex their incredibly deep reference pool, which Mora enhances through the visuals like a room dedicated to the Amalgam Universe. Like the Deadpool & Wolverine film, it can get grating after a while, but Grant Morrison is a much more clever writer than any of the five on that film and ends up using the comic’s barely there semblance of a plot to poke fun at themself.
“The Cosmic Kiss Caper” also made me realize how much I’ve missed Morrison’s sanity-in-a-sea of a chaos with a dry wit and bit of a James Bond flair take on Batman. Batman has been through these kind of situations before, and a Dark Claw reunion tour has nothing on Batman of Zur-En-Arrh or whatever the heck happened in Final Crisis. He reacts to the PG-13 Looney Tunes antics of Deadpool with style, grace, and dialogue that sounds like it could have been delivered by the late Kevin Conroy. On the art side, Dan Mora and Sanchez pour on flashy colors and poses that satisfied my inner action junkie while going for a more muted approach when this story’s special guest star appears. Batman/Deadpool can be cringy at times, but it’s a love letter to the enduring absurdity as well as emotional honesty of superhero comics. It’s solid pop comics, but Grant Morrison has more of knack writing Batman than the Merc with a Mouth.
Following up the chaos is a Dr. Strange/John Constantine story written by James Tynion, Joshua Williamson, and Scott Snyder, a triumvirate of writers, who have found success penning horror comics as well as Big Two superhero books. The art is handled by Hayden Sherman, who is one of the strongest visual storytellers in mainstream comics with their knack for inventive layouts, with colors by Mike Spicer. This story is about a showdown/conversation between Constantine and Strange (With a Ghost Rider vs Swamp Thing battle royale in the background.) that also ends up being about the nature of fear, darkness, and reality itself in the Marvel and DC universes. DC has the prestige of Vertigo, Alan Moore, Garth Ennis, Peter Milligan and more while Marvel has the more dubious “Midnight Sons” and the Nicolas Cage Ghost Rider duology. (Guillermo Del Toro has directed a Marvel horror film and not a DC one though.) However, Stephen Strange was doing his visually stunning occult thing way before the chain smoking lad from Liverpool, and Tynion, Williamson, and Snyder draw on the moral compromises that the Sorcerer Supreme has made in some of his more recent runs. This gives Sherman the opportunity to do some horrific chimera panels of Strange and Constantine merging with various mystical elements, and I love how they structure the story like a kind of wizard duel. As a fan of gritty fantasy, the occult, and superheroes, this story is a wicked delight, and team-ups between the supernatural denizens of the Big Two would be more than welcome.
The third story in Batman/Deadpool #1 is a team-up between Wolverine and Nightwing aka “nepo heroes” to rescue Gabby and Jonathan the Wolverine from Killer Croc. Tom Taylor uses a dual narration style that is a contemporary version of what Jeph Loeb did in Superman/Batman, and Bruno Redondo’s fluid choreography and grid brings a directness and ease of reading complemented by Adriano Lucas’ flat gold and blues. Taylor is a humorous writer with a side of pure heart like in moments where Dick Grayson, Laura Kinney, Gabby, and Barbara Gordon all bond over their different pets. Although different in outward demeanor, Dick and Laura have a lot of similarities, and Tom Taylor’s succinct narration adds context to the body language showcased in Redondo’s art. They have instant chemistry and could easily appear in each others’ books on regular basis without batting an eye. “Sticks and Snikts” is a no-brainer crossover that pays homage to Tom Taylor’s excellent work with both heroes as well as legacy heroes and their growth and development in general.
Batman/Deadpool #1 wraps up with a Hulk/Harley Quinn story and a Static/Ms. Marvel story that have polar opposite tones. “Harley and Hulk’s Amazin’ Saturday” is a bright adrenaline rush with boundless energy as the more colorful alter egos of Harleen Quinzel and Bruce Banner smash, eat, and even flirt their way through a five page story. There isn’t really a point for these characters to interact, but it’s a rare opportunity for Amanda Conner to show why she still has one of the smoothest lines in comics and shows that the anarchic nature of her Harley Quinn run with Jimmy Palmiotti could fit in with Hulk too. Also, it’s just nice to see the Hulk have fun and not being sent down to Hell or being sad and lonely for once.
On the flip side, “New Friends in Old Places” brings together the iconic teenage hero of the 1990s and the iconic teen hero of the 2010s. The old-ish, new school vibes matches the dynamic of the creative team of G. Willow Wilson, artists Denys Cowan and Klaus Janson, and colorist Francesco Segala. There’s not a lot of time to develop the story so Cowan ably transitions from domestic life to superhero ass kicking with plenty of teenage awkwardness as Static and Ms. Marvel team up to fight a generic kaiju. “New Friends in Old Places” felt like a few bits of an appetizer and not even a full small plate so hopefully there will be future interactions between these two heroes that have inspired young people of all genders, races, and religions. (And are also total nerds!)
Batman/Deadpool #1 is a satisfying intercompany crossover that features dynamic work from some of the best artists in comics and a range of tones and types of stories. It’s fun to see Grant Morrison turn back the clock to 1990 in some ways while dropping hit and miss one-liners about Gen Z Internet culture and Absolute Batman, and Dan Mora was born for this kind of big, bad action spectacular. However, my favorite stories were the Dr. Strange/John Constantine and Nightwing/Laura Kinney Wolverine crossovers because they were both intellectually simulating and visually enticing while digging to the core of their protagonists and roles in their respective universes. Also, it’s kind of epic to see Hayden Sherman draw Ghost Rider and Swamp Thing beating each other up. (One day your Alan Moore, Stephen Bissette, and John Totleben will come, Mr. Blaze/Ketch/Reyes!)
