    So great to see. I loved his Superman run.

    Hah, Supes hears “fire pits” and he immediately knows what’s up.

    All the Metropolis dragon stuff looks awesome. Esp Superman eventually going the “let’s talk it out” route after the initial beat down.

    Pak can still write a great Superman, it’s a very different take from his hot head young Supes but good all the same. Looks like the plot for the next three issues is Kim tracking down his mom. Since Themyscaria was mentioned I wonder if they’ll actually have his mom be an Amazon?

    I can only imagine what it's like speaking to Themyscira .

    That was the most centered Superman I’ve read in a while. Kal El, the Zen Master.

    Pak did great young Superman and surprise, surprise he did a great grown up/mature Superman. I hope that he somehow manages to continue writing him.

    To me it felt like Pak just name dropping major cities/places where Kim could go, but you never know.

    Really enjoyed this issue, Superman was great. I loved when he said to the dragon, "Hey friend. You're Metropolis aren't you?"

    I also really like the relationship Cameron has with his friend Fujimoto and loved how he left the dragon with him at the conclusion.

    I'm really enjoying the series so far, but I kinda wish he kept the dragon .
