- Plot- or character-driven? Character
- Strong character development? Yes
- Loveable characters? No
- Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated

Super Sons #4 - 4 stars of 4 stars
Super Sons (#1-#4) : When I Grow Up
What I liked :
* The art for this one was really nice , I really dug that
* The interactions between Damian (who I still don't like ) and Jon was brilliant , hilarious at most times and adorable at all times
* The plot had a few plot holes but it still worked well , I enjoyed that the duo didn't face a big baddie that their respective dads have trouble dealing with
* The regular hints at a future Teen Titans union makes me excited .
* Apart from the Red Hood and Outlaws this is the only other comic hero team that gives the members equal time in spotlight and both are appreciated as vital members
What I didn't Like :
* The plot as I stated earlier had a few holes .
* The villain was underwhelming .
Verdict :
absolute worth your time and money

This series continues to be adorable! I love Damian and Jon's banter!
This wraps up the arc about Kid Amazo and his clones. Lex Luthor's Superman makes another appearance (I'm not sure why that's a thing but I'm not bothered enough to pick up the series). I love seeing the different ways Damian and Jon approach super-heroing. I've read a little bit of the older Superman/Batman comics and it's interesting seeing the parallel with their sons.
I died when Kid Amazo said this line: "You two look like Superman and Batman got married and had twins." Yes! I love imagining them as bickering siblings. Its beautiful. I loved the Superman issues where Clark and Bruce tried to get them to work as a team.
I am looking forward to seeing how the boys deal with Alfred and Lois.
Loving this series!

Turns out that Kid Amazo didn't commit crimes as heinous as I thought. The consistent and comedic disagreements between Robin and Superboy continue! I'm glad Robin swallowed his pride a bit and actually ended up calling for help. The help they got was reluctant, but better than nothing. Their parents won't be too happy about what they did next issue, though. Definitely a fun read, especially at the end.

Super Sons has become one of my favorite DC titles because of the quip between Jon and Damien.
