I really think that Geoff Johns and Gary Frank are setting the new standard with the story-arc's they've been doing in this book. Each of them have been fantastic. They've each been informative and insightful . . even magical . . in their own right. And on a creative level, both with story and art, I think they've each outdone the previous one. Of course that could be my own interpretation, because with the success of each story it makes me look forward to the next one all that much more. So far . . they haven't let me down. They've reached and exceeded all my expectations. This issue we delve a little farther into the Brainiac story-line. Superman actually comes into contact with some of the residents of Kandor and learns some of their history. The problem is, now that Brainiac's actually found Superman, he's attempting to obtain the cities of Earth, much in the same way he did those of Krypton and all the other various worlds. Which means eventually, his task will be to destroy the planet. However, at the end of this issue, Brainiac has Superman wrapped in the cacoon which Superman found him in when he first got there. He's going to have to figure something out because Brainiac has launched a probe into the sun, which will send it into super-nova, and . . . next issue is the finale of this story-arc. They've got a lot of ground to cover. But if anyone can do it these 2 can. The story's great . . the art is fantastic . . it's a classic in the making. Do you have it in your pull?
