    Slott’s take on Clark Kent was great in the first ten issues, but right now it looks like his focus on Jon could be even more compelling. Read Full Review

    Superman Unlimited #12 continues a story that really has potential to be one of the best featuring Jon and a great way to utilize the divisiveness of his premature aging. There’s more than one story element I hope sticks from this arc, but even if they don’t, I’m enjoying them being developed. Read Full Review

    Superman Unlimited #12 reunites Jon Kent with Lois and packs an emotional punch through time and space. The art is gorgeous from panel to panel, and Dan is setting up something with Damien and Bruce that will give you just a slight pause. Read Full Review

    Two Jon Kents, One Major Problem. Slott’s script leans heavily into the family bond as the situation unfolds. Meyer & Peratelli nail the key aspects for this journey with the art. Buckle in for a ride that can go into a million different directions. Read Full Review

    Superman Unlimited #12 works best when it puts its emotional core over setting up future issues, and deftly resolves the idea of two Jon Kents inhabiting the same space. Read Full Review

    Get Your Comic On - Luke Deckard

    Apr 15, 2026

    Overall, Superman Unlimited #12 feels like the creative team setting up the chessboard, from the Krypto-Knights of El Caldero to a genetically enhanced monkey infused with Kryptonite serum, that lands on a compelling cliffhanger—now it’s a matter of seeing how the game plays out.

    Dude, I liked it, but my criticism of this event remains. What's the purpose of this event? Aside from Action Comics, I don't see the other main characters working to bring Superman back. They just know he's coming back and wait. It's not a bad thing in itself, but it's strange.

    Fun and earnest, very high-energy. Slott makes the Super Family interesting!
