Superman #868
SCORE: 67
The legacy numbering for this comic book is Superman #868. The reboot
number for this comic book is Superman #25. In fact it makes a big deal
out of the number twenty-fifth issue. I would think being in the eight
hundreds is more impressive. The cost of this comic book was $5.99.
There are thirty pages of comic book content within Superman #868. I am
unclear why this comic book has the same amount of content for one
dollar more.
Superman #868 is part of the Summer of Superman. Spoilers will be a big
part of this comic book review. The issues families can have with
Superman #868 are violence, blood, bad language, and more.
Advertisements can be found all throughout the Superman #868 comic book.
We learn a lot more about Lex Luthor in Superman #868. We also learn
about X-El. Lex did not want X-El released for any reason.
Mercy is the one that released X-El in the last issue. The current Lex
Luthor with a beard that behaves well is being carted off to jail. The
evil Lex Luthor is also known as X-El. This evil Lex decides to take out
Superman and Superwoman in Superman #868. Marilyn shows up on a
ghost/spirit horse to get revenge against Lex Luthor. He convinces her
to take him to the fight.
Superman #868 gives us a fight between Superman, Superwoman, and the
current Lex Luthor against X-El. Mercy is there with kryptonite near the
beginning but the super couple move the fight away from there. Superman
#868 also shows us that X-El is unstable like Bizarro was. I do like the
black costume with the silver Superman symbol that X-El is wearing in
Superman #868.
Since this is a comic book you can expect a twist ending right? Superman
#868 does not disappoint in that regard. Superwoman loses her powers
right at the end of Superman #868. Lois is sitting there with no powers.
I am unclear how exactly that happened. I will try to keep reading to
find out what is going on there. I suppose all good things must come to
an end at some point in time.
