Looks like MoS Sequel and JL sequel have been dropped with a lot of other DC movies.<br />Among the ones left there is little to no chance of a Supergirl appearance.<br /><br />Among the ones left I have the best hope for Batgirl which I think will be the Burnside version. Green Lanterns could be great if we get Jessica/Simon version or Guy Gardner. I am really not interested in a Hal/Kyle/John movie atm.<br /><br />Least excited about yet another Batman movie.

They really need that retconned. It wasn't a bad story per se, but they should have used another Kryptonian for it.<br /><br />I would personally prefer a Midvale style Kara that has been hidden away, and her foster parents forbade her from Superheroing until she is revealed.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-66788325445599654712017-12-10T19:15:27.962-05:002017-12-10T19:15:27.962-05:00''Completely unrelated: The news about DCE...''Completely unrelated: The news about DCEU being rethought, what are your thoughts?

I think she has more chances to appear in some Superman movie but not in MoS 2 (which nobody knows anything about) and I'm pretty scared how they're going to present Kara with all that story she's already here on earth for a long time,I hope that Man of Steel Prequel be ignored.Thayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06308038811093757472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-85092152246523178342017-12-09T14:22:55.910-05:002017-12-09T14:22:55.910-05:00I enjoyed this issue and the arc.

As someone who's not a big fan of Superman going all American, I wasn't too bothered by Superman's speech. It was more generalised at least and Apokolips did need to be inspired by the parallels in America's creation.<br /><br />It wasn't flawless by any means, the last issue was rushed and Lois beating the Furies (who have fought Barda and Wonder Woman) was a plot armour moment. But it was an improvement over the months of filler we've been getting from the Superman title.<br /><br />Interesting you picked up on this issue's name representing Lex freeing himself of being Superman's ally. <br /><br />LouisAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-38837023062344841092017-12-08T18:40:36.540-05:002017-12-08T18:40:36.540-05:00Completely unrelated: The news about DCEU being re...Completely unrelated: The news about DCEU being rethought, what are your thoughts?

I have always liked Lois for being a true badass. If there's a kidnapper she wouldn't have trouble taking a shot against him. She has been maybe the most badass human in the DC universe. What this arc does with her though is having her beat up the furies, but that removes that awesome human view I have of her and turn her into a mediocre Superhero. She is getting plot armor and plot powers that ruins what I so love about her. Next time I will see her in trouble with terrorists I feel like it won't even be exciting. They made her a bona fide Superhero now.

If so, why bothering?<br /><br />Sadly, Lex's redemption was doomed to failure. You can convert and redeem some villains. But the hero's arch-enemy? Claremont tried, and everyone know how successful Magneto's redemption was.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-51569492115940124472017-12-08T08:54:10.621-05:002017-12-08T08:54:10.621-05:00I felt a little sorry for Lex, but he WAS happy to...I felt a little sorry for Lex, but he WAS happy to throw Superman into the messiah role in his stead. Really though, Superman should have spent time with him, sat down, give him the chance to change he gave Ardora and co.<br /><br />This has been a superb arc. I could have done without the narrative back and forth, which slowed things down for me, but what a great story. I know one or two folk will complain about Lois fighting physically, but it's part of her, she's always been feisty, and what's the alternative here? Be crushed.<br /><br />One thing that disappointed me artistically was that after the 'torch of freedom' talk we never got a full-page splash of an Apokoliptian Statue of Liberty.<br /><br />I loved Jon trying for another pet!Martin Grayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09574149543260175962noreply@blogger.com
