17:28 That's a terrible reason to kill off Nu52 Lois, and doesn't get DC off the hook for all the false advertising with Superwoman Lois everywhere. Hell I was getting amped for the duo when I was reading through the comic; Superwoman and Electric Superwoman combo? Hell yea! ... And then Lois died in book one. But I think the real reason they killed her off was to make space for Pre52 Lois, much like they did with Nu52 Superman. Also, kinda getting tired of Lex Luthor getting shitted on everywhere. It's like the DC universe is conspiring to turn him back into the fullblown Pre52 asshole.
@mrheroprimes8 жыл бұрын
if you are looking up superman on google or yahoo. the first one to pop up is all ways pre52 Superman. as for lex is most likely not going to be ass hole for now. and you have been reading superwoman, so you know lex's sister is now evil and calling her self ultra woman.
@Paur8 жыл бұрын
Robomerc I think you misread something; I wasn't talking about Superman, but the Lois Lane Superwoman advertisements. And yea I know about Ultra woman, but I'm saying that Lex has been looking like a chump at every turn since trying to don the Superman moniker, even in the issue you mentioned about the Ultrawoman. With his sister doing what she did, it might make for a catalyst to make him go over the edge and act more Pre52ish. I mean, I ultimately know that Lex will eventually fall back into that spot, but I'm hoping we'll get to explore this concept of Lex trying to be a 'Superman' more before that happens.
@swguygardner8 жыл бұрын
+Robomerc I think what he's saying is they're using Rebirth as a way to undo any changes to the status quo they made since new52, so once this is over we go back to the same universe we've had for decades. Yeah, if you google lex you get the evil version. Do i want to see another 70 odd years of stories of him trying to kill superman and failing? no. it's boring, i've seen it all before. Do i want to see stories about lex trying to be a hero, and the conflicting motivations and morals about it? Hell yeah, that's new and interesting. Is he doing it to prove he's a better hero than the superman he hated, and trying to outshine him even after his death? Is he doing it because superman's death actually had an effect on his ego, made him question what he has done? Is it all an elaborate plot that he intends to use to his advantage, but maybe finds he enjoys being the hero rather than the villain? all that vs "I hate superman because: xenophobia/feels intimidated/ want to take over the world". And all that can apply to basically everything they're reverting back from new 52. I'd have loved to see two superwoman doing their own thing, teaming up, crossing swords, all that. same with Nu52 supes and per-Nu52 supes. Think about the effects of having another superman, who also has a happy family and homelife, and is generally more powerful and experienced than you just show up and try to tell you how to do the job you've been doing for a decade would have on nu52 supes? Would have been fun to explore, but we can't. I mean, the best thing to come out of rebirth apart from wally west is superboy. But, do you really expect him to stay? He definitely won't. Unlike, say damien wayne who came about in batman's own story for batman's own character development, Superboy was brought about for the Rebirth event, which is looking more and more like a build up to another crisis event. (Like Countdown for Final Crisis). He'll be taken out with the reboot because when you google lex luthor he's evil, when you google lois lane she doesn't have powers, and when you google superman he doesn't have a son.
@mrheroprimes8 жыл бұрын
what i find weird is that he wanted his sister who looked up to him as a hero. which is what pushed him to be a hero. but now his sister is acting like her brother before forever evil, becoming a villain and calling her self ultra woman.

I'm glad Jurgens is still connected to Superman. Especially this Post-Crisis/Pre-New52 version since he had a huge hand in developing him. He knows who he and his supporting characters are.

I think that the New 52 was a universe unto itself that Dr. Manhattan (or Dr. Manhattan empowered baddie) was trying to shape to his own ends. Maybe he has a misguided savior complex or true malevolent intentions. But I think the merger of Sups and 52 Sups history was the universe finding a form of homeostasis after the rescue of Jon counteracted part of Dr. Manhattan's machinations. I believe it's another example of hypertime, like Flashpoint, but instead of Flash being responsible, it's Dr. Manhattan. 52 Sups and Lois helped Jon save Sups and Lois, you wouldn't have had separate souls if 52 was an illusion that got broken. We'll see Dr. Manhattan's hand unfold once Sups starts putting the pieces together and more hero's start merging with their pre-52 counterparts. And I predict a future distinction and separation of the 52 and pre-52 mythos. 😁

Oh hey don't forget to mention in the future that Lana Lang Super Woman is a take-off/version of Superman from his energy form days in pre-new52. Her abilities are actually far greater in that energy form than even Superman's are and I'm pretty sure she's immune to Kryptonite...or at least his old energy form was so I'd assume that that is still the case. Its a really fun series at the moment - and I am kind of waiting for Jon to meet Damien Wayne. You know it is coming - should be fun. Beyond that - obviously geneticron is connected to human-Kent and probably has telepathically implanted memories and is a sleeper agent of sorts or at least an unwitting pawn. It is doubtless connected to those guys that are currently funking with Superman - who also have Doomsday captured and I think were trying to get Zod. Is it connected to Dr. Manhattan? If so only tangentially - or these guys ARE the Watchmen that are doing all of the villainous things. We have seen Lana having nose bleeds upon transforming back to human form - and she is vulnerable in that state just like Superman was in pre-new52. All quite good writing so far at taking the pieces and weaving a new story.
