Some thoughts about Superman #8


Lex Luthor's mistakes are starting to come back at him.

A powerful Metahuman who Lex held as a prisoner is taking his revenge unless Superman risks his own life to save him.

Still as entertaining as ever.

Joshua Williamson offers a new installment in which he explores the motivations behind the new antagonist. There are the classic flashbacks in which we see the connection between Lex and the Metahuman which interestingly enough, puts a lot of fault on Lex while at the same time not completely painting him as the main villain, I do like how Williamson keeps playing with the idea of if Lex is actually being genuine with his intentions or not.

There are also many references to continuity like how the abilities of the new villain are related to Conner Kent's powers while the dynamic between the whole cast is on-point. There's an interesting cliffhanger at the end as well.

Gleb Melnikov, Norm Rapmund, David Baldeon and Jamal Campbell share the pencils and their work is fairly consistent during the read, following the script clearly.

Good issue, hope the next one arrives soon.
