Superman, the Flash, Wonder Woman, and Cyborg are left absolutely impotent It's shocking It's depressing It's damn compelling As has often been the case with Priest's take on this book, it only gets worse from there too.

But that doesn't mean it isn't a good enough show on its own, because it does have promise. Fans of the current CW slew of DC Comics based shows may find this one right up their alley, but I will caution that Krypton seems to cater to a slightly more 'adult' audience, especially when paired with a TV-14[...]

Watching Kenan try to restrain his arrogance and temper in order to play the role of Superman proper is entertaining Bat-Man and Wonder-Woman seem a bit different than Bruce and Diana It was interesting kind of cool to see Avery from Flash in here too This still doesn't take away the exasperation of more Batman,[...]
