CBR Review: Brightest Day Aftermath: The Search for Swamp Thing #2

I recently reviewed Brightest Day Aftermath: The Search for Swamp Thing #2 for CBR and, in the process, wrote the following sentences: "Superman is the next hero on John Constantine’s journey to save Swamp Thing (or stop him? Wait, what does he want to do again?) and this is a Superman quite unlike any I’ve read before in modern times: a rash, judgmental, pretentious hero that all but tells Constantine that he won’t bother with this nonsense, because John’s a little selfish. That's before admitting that he envies John’s selfishness and ability to ignore the suffering of others. That’s not exactly the Superman that’s appearing anywhere else in the DCU. Has the relaunch begun already?"
