Batman/Superman: World's Finest Vol. 2: Strange Visitor by Mark Waid is a read where the duo team up to rescue Robin in a time travel adventure. Then a child from another Earth lands on the prime DC Earth and the child has strange powers. Superman decides to take the child in. The Key and Joker team up to cause chaos in Gotham. This action packed second volume also guest stars Supergirl and the original Teen Titans team and follows Batman/Superman: World's Finest Vol. 1: The Devil Nezha.
It’s always
nice to see a villain like The Key return as it has been years since I have
read anything including him. Joker is terrifying and Supergirl as well as the Teen
Titans are proper heroes. This is a fun read with great art. Some of the covers
are some of the best I have seen all year.
Readers are also warned that there is a lengthy torture scene involving
the Joker.
There is a
twist at the end that many new readers will not understand why this is so
important. I did not see this coming. This volume sets up the third volume
which is currently untitled and a separate series about the original Teen
Titans which includes the same creative team.
My reading copy
came by way of the Hoopla App via The Dallas Public Library System.
