But like I've said, we gotta justify killing off Jon sometime, so more "Jon is eeevil" plots for the foreseeable future. Hence, why I'm tapping out until this BS stops & people stop justifying it.Melahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05539894845356203447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-20496616723531620812017-10-27T09:33:34.500-04:002017-10-27T09:33:34.500-04:00" I am happy that we hear about Supergirl and..." I am happy that we hear about Supergirl and New Super-Man as well as the JLA."<br /><br />Yay! One mention! Superman remembers that his wife and son aren't his only family! Not so good as a full-fledged appearance which develops her character and their relationship but I'll take it.<br /><br />"Thankfully, Superman sees the problems with both sides (if only this approach could be used in real life)."<br /><br />Amen, brother.<br /><br />"Traveling back, Superman stumbles upon Oz's followers about to flood the city with poison gas."<br /><br />It was ever explained where they came from?<br /><br />"It is too bad that Jon didn't have more faith in his father. A short conversation with Jor-El was enough to make him doubt everything."<br /><br />Oh, GOD. I hate to bring "H'el on Earth" up, but you remember how Kara didn't trust her own cousin but believed H'el's garbage too readily?<br /><br />What's next? Kenan Kong believes the first suspicious-looking person he happens upon and turns on Superman?<br /><br />There's some good stuff in this issue, but I hate mad murderer Jor-El (why did DC think another crazy El was a good idea?) and Jonathan being going bad subplot.

I am for him stopping immediate conflicts, but as you imply, people have to be able to protect themselves from outside threats.Martin Grayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09574149543260175962noreply@blogger.com
