This made me so happy. I love Supes and Jon and this new version of Superman is amazing
I've always felt that one of the most essential parts of a good Superman story is his need to surround himself with family, and how that family gives him strength. This volume - where Superman and his wife Lois try to help their son Jon with his developing powers - tells that story very well.
The superhero-y bits with the Eradicator attacking Jon for not being “perfectly” Kryptonian provide a nice thematic counterpoint to that family story as well.
I have no idea of how this fits into the larger DC continuity, or if that word even has meaning anymore, but as a stand-alone story this was great.
I originally read this in single issues, and the aggregate rating came out as 4.1, but as a whole I think I would rate it a bit higher than that. The artwork was great and I really love seeing the family side of Superman.
