Superman: Last Stand of New Krypton, Vol. 1
by Julián López, Jamal Igle, Sterling Gates, Eric Trautmann, James Robinson, Pete Woods
THE LAST STAND!
The FIGHT to end all fights!
Or you know...just another big brawl with Superman at the helm.
The four volumes leading up to this help build this battle up to a final climax. Brianiac is coming after Superman's new home. What a surprise right? However, he has a secret partner up his sleeve. If you read volume 1-2 you can probably guess who that is. Also the world of Krypton is going to shit and Zod is being his regular asshole self. No fear though we have the justice society or something coming to help. I forgot their name. Anyway, Superboy and Mon-el, the only two worth mentioning, come to New Kryton to help.
Good: The fights are pretty epic and very large in scale. Superman ending is great in here. I also loved the Mon-el parts because honestly he's pretty badass (plus love that suit) and Kara was pretty cool too. Putting on that kiss was pretty awesome.
Bad: The plot is so simple it hurts. Like everything you expect to happen...happens. The Villain isn't interesting, sorry, Brianiac is just boring. Having a helper isn't all that great either. Also, Zod is a dick, and no one sees that. It's pretty annoying.
Overall this was fun but it's pretty forgettable. This major war just feels like another big brawl. It's not bad, but it's not all that memorable. A 2.5 is probably what I'd give it.
