Clark did not expect to reveal himself to the world this soon, but when Lex Luthor dons the shield of the House of El, it is time to suit up. He also didn’t expect to team up with Luthor against one of his most fearsome enemies – Doomsday. We have a battle to the death on our hands with the Kryptonian hunting, killing machine. Who will come out on top?
Art Style
The panels told the story, but they felt a bit static and lifeless. I was looking for a bit more here.
Did I put it down?
No, but I wanted to be done with the story earlier than expected. Doomsday has had enough stories that this one did not even interest me sentimentally.
Content
Doomsday is no walk in the park for the Man of Steel. We see references to his prior “death,” and there is plenty of comics-style violence here.
Would I recommend Path of Doom?
I was not as impressed here as I was with Son of Superman. The art and dialogue were stiff, and the experience never came to life. I still like this as a prelude to future stories, and it sets the table for some exciting arcs. I will continue reading the series, but I am looking forward to the Tomasi work more.
