Spinning out of the “One World, Under Gog” storyline, the Kingdom Come Superman’s struggle with his place in the world brings a final conflict between the Supermen of Earths 1 and 22! Feeling the weight of his own world’s loss on his shoulders, the transplanted Superman searches for answers to the mystery of his life’s seemingly cursed existence and encounters “old acquaintances” on the way. This is the first fully written and illustrated adventure by KINGDOM COME co-creator Alex Ross, building to the storyline’s conclusion in JUSTICE OF SOCIETY OF AMERICA #22!

BONUS REVIEW by ANDY COLE
With this book, fans will get a long awaited dose of Alex Ross art that many of his fans will definitely want to grab. But here’s the kicker, the story is pretty good too. It takes us back to the highly regarded “Kingdom Come” elseworlds story from Mark Waid and Alex Ross, and it fills in exactly what happened to Superman and Lois Lane from that story. If you are a fan of the original “Kingdom Come” or Alex Ross, you will not want to miss this. If you are following the current “Thy Kingdom Come” story arc currently on-going in Justice Society of America, this is something that will enrich the tale without being something you must read in order to fully enjoy it either.
I give it 8 out of 10 Grahams
