Another pretty good issue of Superman, I have to say I’m liking the Jurgens/Giffen take way better than the Perez one, and this is only after 2 issues. It was obvious that the opening stuff with Superman being on the run was a Helspont-induced hallucination, but it was a well-done action sequence nonetheless, and it looks like the fears on show here will play a big role in the coming months. Helspont is a decent villain, but he is annoyingly verbose, I was glad when he shut up and started to fight. It was interesting to see Lucy Lane show-up, I wonder what her characterisation will be like, will she be the more militaristic Daddy’s girl like she was when she became Superwoman? Or will she get married to Ron Troupe? I noticed she’s not blind here.
