Book of Doom:
Action Comics #873


actioncomics873Have you been keeping up with New Krypton? All of us here at Doomkopf were in agreement that it’s the Best Crossover of 2008. This week’s new issue of Action Comics marks the conclusion of the event, so we’ve decided to review it for this week’s Book of Doom round-table discussion (coming up on Saturday).

So join us then, when we’ll all talk about how we wouldn’t have picked it as best of anything had we been privy to the final chapter! Oops, that’s a spoiler. Sue me!

Here’s what DC has to say about it:

Written by Geoff Johns; Art by Pete Woods; Cover by Ladrönn

The “New Krypton” finale and a “Faces of Evil” issue! The rapidly rising tensions between the people of Kandor and Earth can only lead to expulsion or war! But even as the governments of Earth begin passing anti-Kryptonian laws, Superman’s people have plans of their own – beyond anything you can imagine! Writer Geoff Johns and artist Pete Woods (SUPERMAN: NEW KRYPTON SPECIAL #1) wrap up this cosmically important chapter in Superman’s life by introducing a major change to The Man of Steel’s status quo!
