After killing Superman and before marrying him, what else could Dan Jurgens do? Kill Supes' human alter ego that's what! The Death of Clark Kent finds the Man of Steel under siege by Conduit; a super villain who emits Kryptonite radiation. Back in the day, Clark and Conduit, AKA Kenny Braverman, were friends, but poor old Kenny got tired of always being second fiddle to Clark, so he devises a plot (if that's what you want to call it) to ruin Clark's life. Whether that means killing his beloved ... Read More

Okay, sure it ends, but SUPERMAN: THE DEATH OF CLARK KENT is one heck of a tedious read. In Superman's Silver Age adventures, it seemed that every character, hero or villain had some connection to Smallville. Crisis on Infinite Earths did away with this, but now we are presented with Kenny Braverman, former childhood friend of Clark Kent, now his bitter rival.

Don't get me wrong; I love the TPB. The only thing is that it left too many questions unanswered. Q1: What happened to Jimmy? His kidnapping was never resolved. Q2: Who was that guy that looked a lot like Conduit that we see in the comic after Braverman's death?
OK. Not that many questions. But I think I've cracked the shell. If there's one thing I don't like it's open endings. I know the Luthor bit at the end make it open, too, but that I can accept.
Other than these things, ... Read More
