The plenitude of Superpeople has me hecka nostalgic for the late '90s Superman Family. It owned bones that it didn't matter if you were Superman, an angel, an engineer in robot suit with a gently caress-off big hammer, or a teen clone with tactile telekinesis powers—if you were willing to stand up for the little guy and do what's right, Superman was proud to call you his equal and was honored that you'd wear his family symbol across your chest.

I thought it was the perfect kind of supporting family for Superman-as-adopted-immigrant and Superman-who-cares-about-your-heart-not-your-skin/powers/clonal genome/fiery malektoplasm/hammer.

He'll either come back, but with different powers/as an energy being and take a new superhero name; or he won't come back to life, but Dad Superman will get his memories and thereafter be treated as Real Superman That I Know by any character who was familiar with either Superman.

Isn't that the story where Superman decides he's skipped too many leg days, and it's finally time to make up for it? An inspiring premise, if so.
