Superman/Wonder Woman, Volume 4: Dark Truth by Doug Mahnke, Peter J. Tomasi
3.0

So this wasn't bad. Better than the last two that's for sure. Dark Truth is all about Supes being depowered and still working out his relationship with his girlfriend wonder woman. What happens here is Supes isn't really that Super anymore and WW thinks she needs to help him at every turn, which the way he throws himself in danger, she has the right to be worried.

What I liked: The art was solid once again, and unlike Batman/Superman stays the same. The moments with Diana and Clark is touching and feels real. Also, how great was it when Lois got her fucking face smacked. Finally!

What I didn't like: Lois is the absolute worse. Her New52 version has always been bad, but talk about awful, that's all her. Also the breaking up shit was pretty badly done, even if it somewhat makes sense.

Overall this is like a 2.5. It's good, fun at times, but the reasoning behind the motives and some of the dialog is really off putting. Owell, this is the end so yay!
