"Ultra Woman" was the code name Lois Lane took when she received powers briefly on the "Lois and Clark" TV series. <br /><br />I wonder if that's Lana as "Superwoman Red," I thought maybe it was the return of Strange Visitor.<br /><br />Yes, the "dying from your powers" trope is tiring after "Final Days" and within "All-Star Superman." Hopefully the series will be a success because LOIS! I'm pretty sure it's New52 Lois too because that costume certainly would be worn from someone in that universe. Then again, Pre-Flashpoint Superman IS wearing *that* costume - although still better than NuSupes armor-tights.<br /><br />I didn't realize that about Jeremiah and Eliza being in the comic, are they foster parents to her in the comic also?<br /><br />I don't like that image of Supergirl in the colouring book but I don't think it will be the cover. I also don't think it can truly be considered "adult" style, as from what I've seen of the Wonder Woman one, it's just covers and iconic images that don't have colour, where the "adult colouring books" are generally intricate designs and shapes making up an image. Although there are some that aren't, but I think they're "regular" colouring books just possibly labelled for the self-concious grown up :P<br /><br />I had just seen all those trades on Amazon a few days before I read the solicitations. I wonder why they broke away from the "volumes" and have just decided to go with "new editions". In any case, it's really cool that they will be available again.<br /><br /><br /><br />Uncle Screensaverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05300304069069472828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-40937696928022722942016-05-24T19:33:19.168-04:002016-05-24T19:33:19.168-04:00I think Superwoman is New-52 Lois (since she's...I think Superwoman is New-52 Lois (since she's near the final battle between flare-"Superman" and the other heroes. Additionally, I think she is dying because if the book doesn't sell well, they will let New-52 Lois die alongside New-52 Superman (assuming New-52 Superman isn't the mysterious new "Clark Kent"), leaving only pre-Flashpoint Lois around (and thus kinda-sorta streamlining/concluding the transition from New-52 Superman back to pre-Flashpoint Superman).<br /><br />I'm also so tired of Doomsday. The best part about the "Death of Superman" wasn't actually "Death of Superman" but "Funeral for a Friend", which allowed a huge amount of world-building to be done for post-Crisis Superman. Kara might have a punch-probability of 85%, but for Superman these days it seems to be 100%.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-29640369338850567172016-05-24T14:54:21.485-04:002016-05-24T14:54:21.485-04:00Thanks for posting, Anj!
