Another new issue of Absolute Superman dropped this week, and it’s a doozy. The entire issue takes place on Krypton and we see how the ruling class responds to Jor-El’s findings.
And it’s up to Lara and Krypto to clean up the mess.
Spoilers obviously.

Lara? Really? Hmmmm I guess that's alright
I find this extremely invigorating, I hope that Kal El is noticed positively for his expose on the elites of Krypton, I find the idea tantalizing, even better if he is punished greatly for it, and he chooses to show the truth anyways, it would highlight his main moniker in a nice way, "Truth, Justice, and the Kryptonian Way" as apposed to his regular American Values, I am pumped for the next issue!
The second I saw the full suit with the headpiece I audibly went "…oh, that's going to be The Absolute Eradicator, huh?"
This feel same the absolute universe was supposed to a universe made darkseid power but see every character have the same origins in a different style or place so that is nothing new. They did in other story in the same universe so yeah still some
Can't say i like the last page with Martha Kent. It feels a bit to cruel. I enjoyed the rest of the book though.
The darkseid origins of the AU
remind me of the Krona origins of the 🌍 1️⃣ graphic novels a while back
Loved this issue. Been following your absolute reviews and I like the style and the way you present info.
There is no way he is the Last Kryptonian. I am not even positive he is the last El.
The council may become absolute brainiac. Maybe digitizing their minds into a machine and almost acting like a hivemind
Cool
Ngl these absolute comics are (so far) my favourite depictions of the trinity outside of the DCAU and All Star Superman (not you all star Batman, you go back into your corner)
