Superman can't die...it's been done before and failed. He had to come back.

P.S
off topic: I've been watching Lord of the rings again lately.
Does anyone else think the guy that plays worm tongue would have made a great dessad

I honestly hope that Starlin doesn't turn anyone from New Genesis into a villain. It would suck major balls to find Orion or The Bug turn into an agent of Darkseid. I just couldn't picture Orion backstabbing Highfather.

I agre. I just can't see DC killing off Bats, Supes or Diana. John Stewart or Guy Gardner, they could be a pssibility. Anyone in tyhe Sinestro Corp, I doubt it, because I think that Sinestro may become a god guy. Maybe kill off Wally West.
Wally won't die. Bart's death is too recent and killing more Flashes for a major event Flashes would just look rather desperate and poor writing.

Many Superman fans did see it as a failure. But it was also a very important event to happen. Supes resurrection did put him on a new level. Good eye on Reigh of Supermen and Zero hour. Supes death help establish for Hank.

If Starlin turns it into another Cosmic Odyssey, he's a dead man.
I read a quite convincing theory that suggested Darksied may have controlled Alex Luthor from the very moment he poured his power through him during COIE, explaining why whenever Alexander Luthors got angry, his eyes glowed red. If you check I.C. you'll see wht I mean. As long as we see a Superman vs Emo Prime rematch, and a Darksied vs the Anti Monitor rematch i'll be very happy. The fact that Morissons writing it means we can expect the unexpected. As long as Granny Goodness or the ****ing Monitors don't turn out to be the main villain i'll be happy.

woah....... THAT, would be an impressive retcon if they actually did it. Darkseid was responsible for IC........ 😄 👆 It would certainly help clean up some loose ends.

I think the New C will cause the death of Darksied and the death of the new gods, but they'll probably be resurrected in a similar fashion to the seven soldiers rendition.
Dan Didio once again hints that current New Gods will be linked to the Seven soldiers rendition.

'Are The Death of the New Gods or Final Crisis related to the ending of Seven Soldiers? According to DiDio, yes. Some elements from the ending of Seven Soldiers will play into the start of Final Crisis.'
I just read "Hal Jordan: Wanted" today (might've paraphrased the title). Not bad.
It's before the Sinestro Corps War, so it's nothing new, but they seemed to be setting up a 3-way fight between the Sinestro Corps, GLC, and the Sapphire Corps (of Star Saphire fame). At the end, some cloaked figures say they will have all 3 under their control.
Ok, fair enough. But I haven't heard about the Saphire Corps (or whatever they're called) since then. I can understand how they aren't as popular, but it seems like a large plot hole to leave out. Either they dropped it entirely, or they'll be part of the post-Sinestro War stuff with teh GLC.
