REVIEW: Superman & Lois – Season 1, Episode 8 “Holding the Wrench”

AlexGherzo | Jun 2, 2021 | 0

With “Holding the Wrench,” Superman & Lois proves it won’t be going through many growing pains in its first season. This show doesn’t need to find its footing, having mastered how to tell a long-form story with just enough forward momentum to make each episode crucial to the arc. At the ...
