    Default REVIEW: Superman, #34

    Part three of Geoff Johns, John Romita Jr., and Klaus Janson's "Men of Tomorrow" drops in "Superman" #34, and while it's a touch predictable, it's still enjoyable.


    Full review here.

    So far I like the story. This should have followed Perez' first story arc.

    I liked this issue. Though I hope it doesn't delve into too much angst about that last page.

    It actually has me wondering if musings of Ulysses going bad might end up right. Almost starting to get a season 3 Buffy/Faith vibe here.

    I like The Machinest so far. He could be a cool creepy addition to Superman's rogues gallery.

    I really enjoyed this. The interactions between the Ulysses, Clark and Ulysses parents were great.
    We need better comics

    Wasn't sure about the Machinist until now but I think I like him. Though with his shtick, isn't he a bit similar to Toyman minus Toys?

    If Ulysses goes bad then I do wonder what makes him different from the equally similar Wraith in Unchained.

    I am really enjoying all things SM right now.

    This book is really good. The writing and the art match up together well.

    Was not too fond of our Ulysses at the beginning but now I really like the character (doesn't seem to mind just killing people though...wonder how Kal will handle that in the end).

    The Machinest seemed lame to me at the start; but after switching bodies with an innocent person and getting him killed by the big "U" I am starting to like him as a villian.

    SM comics are rocking right now and I love them all.

    Ulysses is what the Sentry should of been...take note Marvel.

    Now this is more like it, less empty angst and Daily Planet meandering and more this. Only minus I have is that Neil is still the interesting one in the pair while Superman is just sort of there for me. Neil himself and the machinist as a villain are interesting enough to carry it but I would like to actually enjoy Superman in my Superman comic.

    I don't think so much that the Machinist can switch bodies, rather the mask, when worn by an individual, allows the Machinist to control and act through that person.

    I'm having a really difficult time not getting distracted by the 90s hairstyles and wardrobe choices. Same problem I had with Jr's Spidey.

    It's like I'm watching reruns of Lois and Clark on TNT whenever I see scenes at the Daily Planet.

    Once Doomed is over, I'm sure it will be amazing again.
