While Finesse is clearly intrigued and probably trying to work out if she could survive being given "The Gift."

Reptil looks stunned, and Stryker seems to be feeling inadequate.

Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed shitposting.
Spidey Super Stories not being on Marvel Unlimited is probably the biggest gap in their back issues right now.

Kenan is kind of a dick, but watching him get a lesson in humility is fun.



Also him not understanding a thing Lex said is also hilarious.

Superman died and China saw this as their chance to create their own knockoff Superman, who has a knockoff Wonder Woman and Knockoff Batman as part of a Knockoff Justice League.

It's a better book than that description would imply.

Or more specifically when Nu52 Superman died, he exploded into beams of light that empowered NuLana, NuLois and Kenan here. And then that lead into the whole knock off Justice League. They have Academy's set up for each super hero, the Academy of the Bat's current representative is a pretty hefty dude who's little sister is also at the academy. She's adorable and he's pretty down to earth considering his partners are an egomaniac who's parents are dead (Hilarious) and... Frankly I think New Wonder Woman is Sun Wukong.

She mentioned that it's hard to have family when you've been trapped in a rock for 200 years.

Also August General in Iron is there. So yeah, go read New Superman, it's actually really cool.

Superman of the new Earth died. The old Superman pre-Rebirth is around and took over as Superman. There are implications that new Superman may never have been Superman at all. (A lot of people theorize he might have been Kon-El but there's nothing backing that up.)

He's going to be revived in a couple of months so we'll probably get the answer when he fights The Comedian or whatever.

me omw 2 steal ur girl

New 52 Superman (guy with the high collar, was outed by New 52 Lois and lost his powers for a little bit) died. Post-Crisis Superman (married to Lois, remembers the old DC Universe) was shifted to this world I think like 5 years ago. He and old world Lois were raising their son in secret until New 52 Superman died, then old world Clark stepped up and became Superman publicly again.

You really don't need to know any of this to enjoy the Superman comics though.

Yeah especially considering Rebirth claiming that the New 52 is the same universe as the old DCU, just with a decade of growth and relationships sucked out of it by the Big Mean Alan Moore Characters, there being two Clark Kents and two Lois Lanes running around is the biggest hole in that theory.

I thought I was going insane for a second.

Do characters in-universe comment at all about how Superman died and suddenly there's a new one running around and that's kinda fishy? Or do they think it's the same guy?

The Justice Leage at least know he's a different guy from an alternate world. In fact, the Trinity comic kicked off with Batman and Wonder Woman attempting to get to know this new (from their perspective) Clark and his family better.

Everyone is aware the new Superman is different from the old Superman though most don't know the full deal.

It's probably a bit confusing since you also have Red and Blue Superwomen running around, Supergirl, Power Girl, and all kinds of other confusing things happening.

For the record, "Grass Mud Horse" is a meme symbolizing protest against Government censorship of internet. It's characters closely resemble the Chinese characters for "gently caress your mother".
