review:
'Superman: Action Comics Vol. 3: Men of Steel' by Dan Jurgens takes the issue of Lex Luthor acting heroic head on.

When Superman died, Lex Luthor took on his role. With a powered suit, a boom tube that he acquired, and Superman's old cape, he was in business. The new Superman is suspicious. In his world, Lex is corrupt and evil. So when the God Killer shows up to kill Lex for something Lex will do in the future, Superman is understandably conflicted. He feels like his suspicions are justified, but can you condemn a man to death for something he hasn't done yet?

This volume collects Action Comics 967-972, and it's a fight that spans just about that entire run. There are some subplots sprinkled throughout involving a missing building and a powerless Clark Kent and his interactions with Superman's wife, Lois Lane. Jon shows up as the eager young son who wants to help out.

The art is pretty solid as are the covers. This graphic novel includes variant covers for the run.

I received a review copy of this graphic novel from DC Entertainment and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
