Good use of Supergirl, Robin and the DOOM PATROL by Mark Waid. Also great portrayal of Bruce's and Clark's partnership and nice art by Mora.
Robin focused epilogue next so probably more Kara. Not sure about Batman vs. Robin tho.
When did they have Superman and Supergirl flying through time? Is that Silver Age stuff?

Silver Age and also iconically in the first Donner film as befitting Waid’s interest.

Hey the Key’s back! I enjoyed how Thomas used him in his [I]Man of Tomorrow[/I] issue, let’s see if Waid can match that level of quality.

Honestly that's a good question. I'm trying to remember if it might've been for Last Laugh or something...

Aren’t really a thing any more in the States and it’s not something that’s central to who he is like it is for Dick

I know that.and i disagree,it is the very design of these characters.Superman is an old character.unless you redesign him.
i prefer it being central to the character like dick...The stongman and the acrobat..Have it be time travel adventure or him being a alive as a kid or something..Heck!you could even have clark finding an old strongman suit of his great great grandfather hugo danner or read old pulpfiction adventures of doc savage.I want superman-the concept to have a context in story..Cause if i may he would be the first of his kind.Similar to how bruce's origin is harping on about zoro.
Ofcourse,this is my idea.People could try something different for giving context to superman..Anyways,my superman would probably won't be a superhero at all.At the end of the day he would more or less be a pulp fiction adventurer like character.But, that's irrelevant..you could do these thing i said above.

Maybe Waid will tie this back to Superman...

Shame that Mora isn't doing this issue, but I suppose the man needs a break, and Moore is a quality choice for a fill-in.
Looking forward to it. This book has been a highlight, exactly the kind of retro flavored nostalgia I wanted to compliment the current "next phase" stuff happening in Action and SoKE.
And DickRobin has been amazing, between this, Lemire's Robin & Batman, and Yang's last Superman-Batman arc, we're getting a ton of DickRobin and I'm loving all of it. :D Glad he's getting a focus in this issue.

Indeed. Pretty fun stuff from Waid for sure! I also loved Yang's Robin in his book, especially when paired with Jimmy. Dream side project would be for Yang to have written a Dick/Jimmy spinning out from that series.
