Jacked #3
The desire to matter – to be super – also proves deeper and more driving than Jaffe’s concern for his own safety and wellbeing.
Justice League of America #7
Superman’s trinity is “Truth, Justice, and the American Way,” for which he fights a never-ending battle of a more infinite importance than any finite lives.
Replica #1
Replica tries to be as many books as Churchill has clones; it’s a character-centered comedy, police procedural, serious science-fiction examining the ethics of an emerging technology… even mystery, noir, and thriller.
SuperZero #1
Dru Dragowski is essentially the female Dave Lizewski: an every-nerd relegated to reality with heroic aspirations far more fantastic.
Star Wars #15
The temptation to intercede, to go from cloister to crusader, is particularly potent, practically palpable in this issue.
Mighty Morphin Power Rangers #0
Higgins’ greatest success is tonal, ridding the Rangers of their unintentional camp, delivering a series both brightly colored and yet clearly for adults instead of their children or childhood selves.
The Secret of Superman’s Identity
Clark Kent is not Superman’s identity as a man, but rather his identification with Man, a daily exercise in humility for the individual for whom that virtue is more important than for anyone else.
Christology in the Superman franchise
Superman transfigures into pure light, ascends to the heavens, and makes his dwelling in the Sun until his promised return. He is in this way Ra, Apollo, and, most obviously, Christ.
Secret Wars #9
That’s the solution to everything: Be a good man. All of the good that came about – the promise of a universe where everything lives – is the outcome of one man choosing to always do the right thing.
American Alien #3
Easily the best Superman story since All-Star… navigating successfully between being reverently referential and refreshingly original
