Let the Fighting Begin! Superman vs Captain Atom

It’s the first fight of DC K.O. and it’s Captain Atom vs Superman. This issue is written by Joshua Williamson and drawn by Sean Izaakse.

I will say that I liked Captain Atom picking a fight before the real fight began. Maybe he bit off more than he could chew. Oh well. So we had the three rounds within the one round. Captain Atom won the first round with a Red Sun and Kryptonite combo, but Superman knows he couldn’t let him win the next two. The last round was so much fun, Atom tried to bend the world to help himself, but really he screwed himself over. Using his own babyself to stop Superman is iconic. But taking someone’s backstory is a little more iconic. Are you ready for fight month?

⭐️Overall rating: 4/5
