Previous Post Do not like Conner Kent who appears in Adventure Comics #1... Adventure Comics #1 http://www.dccomics.com/dcu/comics/?cm=12438 http://comicbookresources.com/?page=preview&id=2974&disp=table http://dcboards.warnerbros.com/web/thread.jspa?threadID=2000197036&tstart=0 Liked Adventure Comics #1 which spotlighted Conner Kent though. *scratches head* The contradiction is extreme. Good cover. Good art and colors. Good Smallville setup. Good to see Superman back on earth post-WOK, even if it is out of reading sequence. Good dog, Krypto, good dog!!!!!! Agree with hellblazerraiser from dcboardslink above: Krypto was THE highlight of the issue!!! Very clever use of to do list to nicely wrap up a self contained story. Dont like Cassie but might like to give #2 after this good effort. And then theres Tim in #3: http://i421.photobucket.com/albums/pp296/ScottyQuick/adv3_cover_cmyk.jpg Quickies: What was the last issue Wonder Girl and Conner appeared together? When did Conner hate Smallville? Why cant he do freeze breath? Any more info on the Bruin Lake Beast? Does Conner have Lex DNA in him?

I bought the issue only because at (comicon?) the author said that if people don't like Krypto, they shouldn't buy the comic. As I DO like Krypto a lot, and he indeed appeared on the first page or two (I haven't had time to read the whole thing yet), I bought it and will buy future issues if he or other superpets turn up, though Krypto is enough for me Oh, and if the comic's good, I may buy it for itself as Astounding Wolf-Man is ending at #25.

Krypto also turned up on the current Secret Files, but only on one page, Secret Identity (I think) "Pal", which was cute, but the art wasn't great and that's the only place he was in the issue as far as I could see, so I left that behind on the shelf. Hey, I started reading comics back in the 1950s and Krypto is fun, so... good for me, getting to see him again!

Now if Mark (Invincible) Grayson could find a superdog or supercat to help him fight terrifying villans like Conquest... see issues #62,63,64 for some really horrifying -- yet true-to-life for Super beings -- fighting... would have scarred Batman... made Superman think twice...
