Who else is in the news as much as this guy? Just recently it was him with WW and now it is reported on cnn that he is quitting his job at the daily planet.
"And in SUPERMAN #14, written by Scott Lobdell and illustrateed by Kenneth Rocafort, the Man of Steel himself will be forced to come face to face with the gang’s worst nightmare: a creature of unknown Kryptonian origin who is not only more powerful than Superman, but is also smarter than Supergirl and more lethal than Superboy."
Im sure everyone has seen his benching the earth's weight on Low energy for five days straight feat, and him going at least 300c in Red Hood and the Outlaws.
So, New 52 Superman has some better explicit on screen feats then Pre-52 Superman, just in the sense they show the actual weight he can lift, even when on low Solar reserves.
Question on Superman's magic vulnerability, in the Pre-52 universe there was a couple of times stated on page that Superman was over it (through Zatannas training i think), but then after that he is shown to be vulnerable sometimes still. So it was really inconsistent. Anyway, in the new 52 has Supes actually been shown to be vulnerable to magic? I have all of his titles out so far (#15 isnt out til this wednesday), and ive read his cameos and dont recall having seen any instances of magic vulnerability.
