It seems like Morrison wanted to establish Superman's character first.<br /><br /><i>Lois was treated very poorly by Morrison with rare exceptions. </i><br /><br />I thought her role in the zero issue was fantastic. I thought her role with Susie was okay. I think his characterization of her, when there, was fine. <br /><br />But I do agree ... not enough Lois.Anjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10023193805914075078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669531469217423923.post-53631865561415600292013-03-03T21:40:38.625-05:002013-03-03T21:40:38.625-05:00Except that Grant Morrison basically gave Lois ver...Except that Grant Morrison basically gave Lois very little development in 18 months. He never showed their first meeting, never showed the triangle for 2 and gave Olsen more prominence than her.<br /><br />It's a very problematic origin story for they reason alone. Lois was treated very poorly by Morrison with rare exceptions.
