This is one of the best single issues I've read since getting back into comics. I pretty much get into anything with Supes and Shazam or Shazam related, so when I read this was Superman vs. Black Adam, I had to get it. I was not disappointed
I'm surprised how they've changed Adam from a maniac into almost a noble villain with wit and a slight sense of humor. He actually shows a sense of honor. I've no idea about 52 or whatever happened in that, but this book showcases his star potntial. I ordered WWIII to read another BA book.
Plus, I've rarely seen John Byrne's art look so good. He finally got smart and has someone else inking him. This team rivals the Byrne/Austin X-Men run. As a Byrne fan of old, it's good to see him working again and at a human pace. He once told me he completed an issue of FF in a day, inks and all.
I'm likely the only one here who liked this book, but it made an impression. I'll have to investigate the rest of Byrne's run on this title. Great stuff.
