Superman: Action Comics Vol. 1: Rise of Metallo
Superman: Action Comics Vol. 1: Rise of Metallo | Phillip Kennedy Johnson
1 post | 1 read
In a critical time for Metropolis, the increasingly violent Blue Earth movement is keeping the entire Super-Family on their toes. The opening of the new Steelworks tower-meant to be a bastion of scientific innovation-has drawn unwelcome attention from a supercharged Metallo. Where did he get this newfound super-strength, and why does he seem hell-bent on revenge? Is Lex Luthor’s jealousy to blame for this assault on the city, or are there other factors at play? And when the Super-Twins find themselves alone against Metallo’s undead army, the Necrohive, it’s an epic rematch for the ages. Collects the lead stories from Action Comics #1051-1056.

A boisterous book about the Super Family hearkening back to Reign of the Supermen is a good idea, but with so many characters it's hard to really find space for any of them except Superman himself. There is one very funny joke about Lois keeping Clark's gladiator chain suit from Future State.
