Even though his parents demand he hide his amazing superpowers, Clark uses them to give himself that extra edge in a competition to find the best and brightest for a summer internship in Metropolis, but he will have to deal with newfound friend Lex Luthor who also has special abilities.

Clark & Lex

In honesty, this is more of a 3 1/2 ⭐️ than 4 ⭐️ review. Loved the artwork, and some elements of the story, but the authors did lean a little hard into making Clark a little shit before he finally saw the light. Granted, he’s a middle schooler, so some tantrums are inevitable. I enjoyed the friendship with Lex, before his little turn as well. Clark’s parents were wonderful, which kinda made it a wee bit impossible to believe Clark’s attitude. Overall, this is the start of a series, so a few stumbles are expected. It might just be worth it to see how it continues to improve. 

Thanks to NetGalley for letting me read an advanced copy of this story.
