Superman #655- DC


Another book that just keeps getting better and better. Now Kurt Busiek and Carlos Pacheco are at the helm. It should be all uphill from here. First thing they do is bring Arion back. Well not exactly. Not at first. First we get a look at him in the 17th century in Paris. But, he's having dreams and such that are being affected by the events of this issue. So, after scying to find out what's going on, he decides that he needs to take a more direct interest and on the last page of this issue walks in to a mystical emblem that I assume is going to bring him straight to us. Cool!! But what's agitating him? Well Clarks friend, Callie Llewellyn, is a scientist that is having some serious problems in Kazakhstan. Some locals found an abandonded research facility and stumbled across Subjekt 17. And this being is a handful, even for Superman. Somehow, this being is what's causing the psychic feedback for Arion. We also get to see some into Lana's life, now that she's the CEO of Lexcorp. That could be an interesting ride also. Like I said, these guys are really going take this book up a notch. And that's not to say anything was bad with it before. All the Superman titles in the last couple of years, have been great. But I think that they're all going to improve even more this year.
