Forgot about Tiwbee.,<br /><br />And yes, Karl,telling Kara is a great sign!Anjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10023193805914075078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-21394353736453360522017-04-21T15:13:59.831-04:002017-04-21T15:13:59.831-04:00I have accepted this title is going to write Lois ...I have accepted this title is going to write Lois out of character. Thanks for the Milk creepy neighbor. And exit stage left. <br /><br />To the meat of the story? Yes. Watchman vibes indeed. I read this weeks Trinity and Justice League because I was curious. <br /><br />The smoking guy had me thinking X-Files. <br /><br />And Kathy's role is interesting. That will be fun to follow.

This iss...That Superboy and Robin panel is golden.<br /><br />This issue provides many clues. Too many clues. I cannot pinpoint a single suspect. Although that smoking ink-man stands out for some reason. Maybe that cigarrette is an important hint?<br /><br />Aww... Superboy is becoming his hometown's idol, like his dad did in another reality.<br /><br />Superman's speech is real good and it reminds me of one of my favorite scenes of Kingdom Come: when Norman McCay told Superman that he always knew what to do because he instinctively knew what is right.<br /><br />Kathy... Halo? It would be funny.<br /><br />Anyway, the Hamilton subplot is coming to a head: the Kents have realized that town is hidding a dark secret that is harming their son, their neighbors are dangerous... everything is paving the way for their moving back to Metropolis. I wonder how they explained to their co-workers why they moved to that town.<br /><br />By they way, so far Clark has only confided to Supergirl, Batman and Wonder Woman that he was split. I like the implications that he trust them more than anyone else.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-78490166512100278632017-04-21T09:41:10.479-04:002017-04-21T09:41:10.479-04:00Got him!

I was ha...Great review, and I love the Halo theory. I was having a look at the old Outsiders member's powers, Kathy could be using the stasis beam or the tractor beam (perfect for a farm... 'tractor beam' is one of those sci-fi terms so familiar that I've only just realised I have no idea what it means).<br /><br />I was resisting the idea of Watchmen links too, but that squid did remind me a tad of Ozy's monster at the climax, and the Superman issue's colour scheme, with lots of purples and oranges reminds me of John Higgins' Watchmen work.<br /><br />Mind, that thing seen on Cobb's screen reminds me of a Black Mercy. Did Superman have any evil zookeeper foes? Who was that Seventies villain who played pipes and had a big moustache, I'm confusing him with Karb-Brak. We need the veterans...<br />Martin Grayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09574149543260175962noreply@blogger.com
