Page 4, panel 2
Despite his wounds, Booster tellingly thinks only of the condition of the house's residents. More often than not, Booster's primary concern in dangerous situations is to take care of innocent bystanders. Casual acquaintances of Booster may consider this comment out-of-character, though it is no doubt genuine in its sentiment.

ISSUE REVIEW

Boosterrific Review: This issue succeeds where so many other issue-long brawls fail: meaningful drama. It is made clear to the reader from the behavior of the characters and the pacing of the action that this scenario is more dangerous and life-threatening than battles typically found in the pages of Superman comic books. This is probably a side effect of the creative team firmly believing in the direction of the story arc more than anything else, and in any event it makes for a very tense and enjoyable comic book experience.
