REVIEW: Superman: Rebirth, #1

[Jeremiah]

I'm not saying the future issues can't and won't be better but you set it up and marketed it this way so that these one-shots were the jumping on point, the first impression. And they managed to make that spot dull as all hell.

Exactly. The more I thought about this last night the more amazed I was. I just can't get over how DC shouted from the rooftops, "READ THIS ISSUE." And this is what was inside. I mean Geoff Johns was on the Late Show with Seth Meyers for god sakes. I just don't understand what they're thinking.

Quick question from a DC novice, does the issue detail how new52 Superman died? Do I need to buy Superman #52? I really just want to grab the rebirth one shots without being lost. Thanks guys.

it does detail pretty clearly what happened in #52 specifically,but doesn't go into how New 52 Superman got to that point.

To all the people who are deliberately NOT reading "Superdad" because .... just because.... they are missing out on a great Superman story! The look on Batman and Wonder Woman's faces made the price of the comic worth it. I also liked the interactions between father and son. This issue is much better than the Superdad mini series

Yeah, I was underwhelmed by the rebirth issue, and apprehensive about the Superdad/Superson dynamic, but I really enjoyed the first issue. It's worth a shot. Great job by the creative team.
