Superman Confidential #4
Written by Darwyn Cooke
Art and cover by Tim Sale
So I am going to guess the guy who opened the door at the end of this issue was a Clark Kent robot or something? Most likely. Didn’t Superman have a bunch of robots stored in the Fortress of Solitude at one point. Anyways, this was a decent issue. I enjoyed it. I mean, it is still nothing to write home about or nothing. Sale’s art is up to par for what he usually does and the writing is decent. Everything is just okay I guess. It is nice to see Lois in her investigative reporter role, a role we don’t see very often in series set in the modern DCU. I wonder why this series is delayed so much? Sale’s art? Cooke having to deal with writing and drawing the Spirit as well as overseeing animation projects–that is the most likely culprit. But in a world where All-Star Batman and Robin is YEARS late, something like this isn’t a big deal at all.
