The Boys Are Back in Town! Adventures of Super Sons #1 preview!

[Kuwagaton]

It had a pretty obvious similarity to Justice League, but was much easier to follow with the lack of a tie-in. That action was tremendous.

This was great, and Barbari nails the kids, his art is so comicky.

I know I’m dumb but who is the Sasquatch analog?

On a side note (roasted my fingers cooking tonight DOH) but.. reading Super Sons as well as Batman.. It seems as though SS has different paper stock? Or maybe the paper weight is the same but SS is lacking a glossy finish to the paper? For whatever reason (unless its just in my head and the paper is the same) I REALLY like whatever they used on SS and wish they would move all their titles to that kind of paper. (feels different, non-glossy but definitely still a step up from old newsprint..) Can anyone confirm? Or am I just smokin somethin?...

Hilarious issue. Damian and Jon’s banter continues to be my favorite part of the book.

[Kuwagaton]

Kevin as far as I can tell they have been experimenting with this paper stock randomly.

The Shaggy Man is a villain from the silver age originally. Very strong and weird.

Glad this thread was up as I didn't realize it was out this week. Will pick my copy up ASAP.

That's what I loved about Super Sons.

This comic was brilliant fun. Thoroughly enjoyed it. And "The Gang" make hilarious villains.

I bought both covers, something I almost never do. But I couldn't not have that beautiful Jorge Jimenez cover!

Edit: By the way, I know there must be some "digital only" readers of this title who might not have bought it yet.

As I bought two copies, I have two digital codes for this first issue. I used one myself. If anyone wants the second one, just let me know by private message. Free of charge (literally), but first come, first served.

Ah, needed this like a fix.

But, with their new foes, the Super Sons need the-
*random person*- Don't say it!
Super Friends!

[Batman Begins 2005]

Such a fun book. Glad it's back.

Look at it another way.

1. A relaunch typically helps sales and sales for super sons was starting to decline a bit
2. The book will relaunch again once this story finishes for another story if sales are good

Well they should cancel and relaunch Superman, Batman and all DC comics since their sales are also in decline from when they 1st launched. What a silly idea. Supersons was one of DC's better performing comics. All comics experience decline.

Heck Supersons was performing better than some titles that just went from monthly to bi weekly recently.


I enjoyed this issue and i'm glad it's back but still can't understand why this series had to be cancelled. DC just seems to enjoy hobbling itself at times.

Finally got around reading it and I'm not a big fan of the art, but story sounds entertaining and I have missed those boys a lot so I'm on board again.

As for cancellation of previous series, I don't like it and for me neither sales argument works (it was selling better than many other titles) nor "story reasons" explanation since when Dark Metal was going on main Batman title just did long War of Jokes and Riddles storyline that was happening in the past so I see no reason why same couldn't have been done with Super Sons.
