Superman #31 Is a Near-Perfect Supplement to DC’s Brutal New Crossover (Review)

In Superman #31, the story unfolds during the same week the heroes are leaving Earth in DC K.O. #1. This issue focuses on Superman grappling with the heroes’ choice to evacuate, while Lois Lane begins to suspect something big is happening. Writer Jeremy Williamson laid groundwork for DC K.O. in previous Superman issues, and this issue brings those connections to the forefront. It also continues a storyline from the Justice League: Dark Tomorrow special, which showed that the Kryptonians were aware of Darkseid and his title, “King Omega.” This issue is packed with plot developments, but Williamson handles the pacing skillfully, culminating in a strong return for Lois Lane as an investigative reporter.
