⭐ 7/10

February 7, 2026

So the clear comparison to Superman was obvious but it was really funny and had a good story. Will try not to spoil it but there was even an excellent twist and I loved the idea of the bad guy as the hero in the story that was really well done. Also the way they developed the characters was well done so not just your typical good vs evil story. Good job guys, well done!
