I hope we learn if there is some back story between the two."<br /><br />I'm starting to wonder who General Lane reports to. An active duty general simply doesn't run a project by himself without answering to someone. I would like to see the title explore that angle more.Genenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-75497271010114374902009-10-05T02:51:50.946-04:002009-10-05T02:51:50.946-04:00Nice to see that Robotman still has his pet dog al...Nice to see that Robotman still has his pet dog alongside him!Marc Burkhardthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06949686463975572297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-71644498515597306362009-10-04T22:05:17.851-04:002009-10-04T22:05:17.851-04:00And the genetic experiments are the original Outsi...<i>And the genetic experiments are the original Outsiders, from First Issue Special.</i><br /><br />Thanks for the post.<br /><br />RObinson has really mined that title for a lot of characters!Anjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10023193805914075078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-91117192960135183082009-10-04T22:04:33.728-04:002009-10-04T22:04:33.728-04:00However, your review is, as ever, solid and I shal...<i>However, your review is, as ever, solid and I shall continue reading them and use them as a guage for picking the book up again at a later date.</i><br /><br />Thanks so much for the kind words.<br /><br />Superman has always lagged a but behind the other super-titles.

I'm always thrilled to see Legion of Super-Heroes characters popping up all the time (i.e. Princess Projectra/Sensor Girl from the Levitz run), Robinson is clearly flexing his DC history muscles by revisiting some dusty corners of the DCU, as you put it. Can't say that's all bad, really. In fact, it's one of the ingredients in the recipe for a good run on a comic in 2009. That said, glad I'm not the only one having trouble juggling all the plot lines. The one thing that helps is that they span several DC comics so the story gets updated almost weekly instead of monthly, keeping them fresh in our heads. As always, great review. I learned a thing or two.<br /><br /> ChadChadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16662473574538083053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-13053956808308189232009-10-03T15:44:45.516-04:002009-10-03T15:44:45.516-04:00I believe the blocky robot is Gernsback/Elektro, t...I believe the blocky robot is Gernsback/Elektro, the All Star's butler.<br /><br />And the genetic experiments are the original Outsiders, from First Issue Special.<br />http://www.thefifthbranch.com/gorilladaze/?p=45Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-73253141418095255692009-10-03T10:50:20.085-04:002009-10-03T10:50:20.085-04:00I dropped this book just before this issue came ou...I dropped this book just before this issue came out because I felt it wasn't justifying it's cover price.
