Superman - Action Comics: The Oz Effect Deluxe Edition
by Dan Jurgens
THE OZ IDENTITY IS REVEALED!
Well...that was okay. I mean I get why. It's to give superman some family moments. To question him. I think having Oz who he is shows how devious, or how fucked up, the man who's pulling the strings is. How he knows how to hurt the man of steel and give him a hell of a tortured mind. Saying that we also get Superman running around the world saving people because that's what he does best. Also first story is Superman working with Lex and it's a different twist on it all.
Good: The short little lex story worked well and showed both their true selves which I enjoyed. I also liked some of the Oz reveal, especially with Jon being kind of the open minded individual that the two other Kents were not. I also thought the fights were pretty intense.
Bad: The art was a little iffy sometimes, especially in the Oz section. I also thought the dialog was a little on the nose at times and to 90's (come on Dan!) Also the reveal was kind of like 'Oh...." And not all that amazing.
This was a solid volume but I just expected more from the great "Oz". I like the future idea of hurting superman emotionally but beyond that this volume wasn't nearly as good as the last one that's for sure.
