Superman, Volume 1: Son of Superman (Rebirth)
by Patrick Gleason, Peter J. Tomasi
This is by far my favorite Rebirth title.
Peter J. Tomasi knows how to write family dynamic. If you have a family, this book hits even better. If not, well it's still really well written.
Superman is trying to find his place. Trying to be the replacement the world needs now that their Superman has passed away. The single shot issue helps establish a conflicted Clark but once the main story hits, when you see the reason he's worried, is because of Jon (his son) it all comes together. Clark decides it's time to bring Jon out, and let him be who he's destined to be! Superboy!
There's so many amazing moments in this. From the Justice League appearance that scares Jon, to Jon fighting in Space, to Jon joining his dad in battle against the eradicator. It's so many "oh shit is about to go down" moments.
On top of that Clark and Lois are amazing together and talk like REAL parents. I freaking loved them talking in the bedroom, but even more so loved when the whole family is together. Oh did I mention Lois kicks some serious butt too? Cause she does, and it's amazing.
This whole story is very much worth the praise for the great dialog, VERY strong art, and well done storyline. I can't freaking wait for volume 2. Peter J. Tomasi has one of the best ongoing series atm in all of comics IMO.
