Action looks great.

lol

What part of angry face Superman in an electric chair with guns pointed at him, makes you want to read that issue? Look out for those bullets and electricity Superman! They might slightly irritate you. But at least Superman is an angsty, misunderstood loner now because that is the character development we have all been waiting for. Everything we've heard so far about Superman makes be angry, I just wanted something similar to All-Star Superman, not this trash.

That action#2 cover looks great.

Please let that be the government instead of some random villains.

lol the book hasn't even come out yet. Judge when you actually read it. I like the changes they are making. Some make sense.

And others....

Other I can live with. Like never been married. Lois was annoying anyways. 😄

Meh, it depends on the Lois and how the writer is using her. Some interpretations I really liked of her, others were annoying, and others got no response from me at all as she was just...there. Killing off the Kents is more drastic than making Clark single though, imo.

Preview of JLA.

I like all the changes to supes. Its interesting to see them using pre-crisis elements.

Morrison said it's going to have a All-Star Superman type of vibe. It's going to be great, IMO.

I see All-Star Superman as a re-imagining of silver age Superman. So a similar re-imagining of golden age superman should have similar potential.

Don't worry Batman, Hal Jordan to the rescue!

Geoff couldn't control himself for the first handful of pages, in the first issue.

facepalm & lulz.

Would be awesome if they just went a totally drastic different route. Making Superman arrogant and stuff until he learns in his "Year One"

That looked awful...

I love Jim Lee's art here. Looks like Batgod has some nifty gadgets.

Sups about to get "Quesada'ed"!
