My Adventures with Superman issue 4

Last week we got the latest issue of the My Adventures with Superman comic. This was my favorite issue of the series so far. Maybe it’s my love of Christmas!

I’m stealing this screenshot from Comic Box Commentary since it shows one of my favorite moments!

Two panels of the MAWS comic showing Amazo decorating for Christmas with Jonathan and Martha Kent. Panel one has Amazon asking: “I don’t understand tinsel’s function. Will it keep us safe?”. Jonathan replies “It’s decorations. This time of year there’s a lot of holidays.” Amazon asks “Holidays?” Panel two has Martha holding the car from Action Comics #1 and she answers “Little rituals humans do to celebrate the season.”

While our gang prepares for Christmas tensions between Bloodsport and Deathstroke boil over to a fight. We get some heavily anime inspired Bloodsport action here which I loved. As Task Force X and Checkmate brawl, Superman and Amazo enter the fray.

Amazo ends up saving Slade Wilson learning from big blue. Superman and Amazo fighting Bloodsport and Deathstroke ending with the apparent destruction of Amazon? Plus is Amazo Kryptonian? It’s been hinted at. Guess we’ll see next month!
