I don't trust DC with pre-Flashpoint Supes. They'll do something to it, like they did Batman Beyond. I expect a different outfit (no trunks, because GAY~!!!!!) and some other nonsense.

Of course. Oh, and that third one was an unused cover for Superman Unchained. Note the date on the signature is 2012.

The Convergence mini was pretty good, but I am not getting my hopes up. I wish this series were "Batgirled" into a pre-New 52 Superman, classic outfit, its own continuity. But I know I am in the minority. Hard Truth by Pak (Action), and Before Truth by Yang (Supes) have been pretty good. But Dark Truth (S/WW) and Truth Hurts (B/S) have both been lackluster. Maybe they would read better collected, but at the current pace I find the latter two a chore. Anyone looking forward to American Alien? I know Landis is a dick, but A) a lot of fine writers and artists are dicks, and B) some drat good artists are scheduled for the book. At the very least it will give us a break from the all-encompassing Truth arc.

Oh, man... I just looked up the solicitation artwork. Cautious, guarded optimism. Just like with Dawn of Justice.

Rhyno posted:So I've been re-reading random chunks of my Superman trade collection, got to the New Krypton era part of the shelf and after three books I'm just irritated as hell. You have two books for Nightwing and Flamebird, two books for Mon-El, three books for World of New Krypton, two books for War on New Kryptonand a half dozen other random books that collect Jimmy or the Guardian's stories. I don't know who was in charge of this but it's a huge clusterfuck. There's little direct flow in any of the stories and only one book collects crossovers across the various titles at the time. And one issue is reprinted in three different volumes. And on top of that, they don't even collect every issue during this run so for some reason the loving Legion shows up but we don't get any clear reason why.

Not just a mermaid, he also banged an alien chick that can turn into triplets, and a French chick. Plus, Lana (she's a freak too). Anyway, I'd like to see Landis get a nice 12 (or more)-issue run on the main Superman book, once Yang finishes up his own run (which I hope continues past Truth).

At this point the only reason I'm keeping up on Action's plotlines are for possible payoff to the Mr. Oz Ozymandias? storyline.

Action #962 was actually better than previous issues. The main Doomsday plot was resolved (for now) and a few little subplots moved forward. The dialogue between Superman and Luthor has improved. And Jon cheering on his dad is fun. Hoping the series continues like this. Good stuff.
