Levitz wraps up the arc with a Legion of Super-Heroes story guest starring Batman. Superman’s in a panel or two. Lex’s planet has paid-off (in the future), with a Kryptonite-infused Lex clone going through history after Superman (and Superboy).
The story’s unpredictable and funny. And Ordway’s mostly just drawing, not trying to look painted, so the art’s much better.
The rest of the issue is two-page anniversary stories.
Seagle and Kristiansen’s is pointless self-indulgence. Tucci’s actually funny. Hughes does a poster; great art, of course. The big surprise is the Krul one (with Manapul on the art). The writing’s actually funny. Thompson’s got a couple pinups. Green and Johnson (art by Davis and Albuquerque) are unmemorable.
Rouleau’s got a fantastic one, so do Azzarello and Bermejo.
Finch and Williams’s one is atrociously written.
Tomasi and Ha’s entry is pointless but looks nice.
Excellent feature though.
