    i do hope he dies-- not something i ever thought i'd say-- and all-star superman's death of pa kent is especially impactful. i think i prefer that version to their pre-crisis death-by-tropical-fever

    the sun doesn't hang very high in the sky at night, so solaris is stuck terrorizing the earth from the horizon!

    lame jokes aside, superman defeated solaris on the streets of metropolis in...

    I remember how cool I thought The Batman's costume tease was, with the thumping score, heavy mood-lighting, and tantalizing slow-motion. I'm confused, then, by how Gunn is teasing Superman's new...

    My first thought on reading this was of Miracle Monday, when Superman flees to the fortress after his identity is revealed to the world (whoops, spoilers for Miracle Monday). I doubt there's any...

    superman is a comic book character, and most of our reactions would probably center around that. warner bros would probably try and send superman a cease and desist for copyright infringement, or put...

    you're right. peter parker has nothing going for him right now... and i think that's great. no, seriously! i think our current status quo could actually be the launching pad for some great spider-man...

    obligatory "we are so back" upfront.

    boy, i'm really excited! i hope this is a middle-aged peter who's just starting his career as spider-man. it makes me wonder whether this peter will have...

    i think the spider-family would be a step down from the typical, non-super-powered supporting cast peter is usually surrounded with. the central conceit of the soap opera angle on spider-man is that...

    no truer words were spoken! i'm always surprised by how hit-and-miss i find his superman stories, given that his spider-man comics are some of the greatest.

    i don't know if i have a favourite--...

    i need to sleep so i'll reply with two cop out answers and make my peace.



    cop out answer one: admittedly, i think it's kind of a complicated thing. complicated and straight forward. it's...

    yes, superman takes a life at the end of the story, but he recognizes it was the wrong thing to do. "Nobody has the right to kill." he says, "Not Mxyzptlk, not you, not Superman." he broke his oath,...

    as preface, i haven't actually read the supergirl saga, so really i have no business contributing to the conversation at all.

    that said, i don't think it's ever appropriate for superman to kill,...

    i think the majority of his fights shouldn't even be approaching that level of violence. what makes old superman stories shine are the ways he uses his powers to creatively solve problems-- he's the...

    these are all great picks! it's superman is such an underappreciated gem, and it'd be perfect inspiration for legacy.

    i'm very excited for action comics #1 to enter the public domain. so much of what i enjoy about superman is present in that first story! i'm hoping we'll see some stories that make use of superman as...

    i'm not able to view the post linked in the initial post, so i guess i'm forming an opinion based on just the title of the thread.

    it's frustrating that most of peter's supporting cast right now...

    that looks like an edited still/promo from superman returns, i think it'd be pretty tough to add a mechanical monster to that. it could end up making the edit look a lot less real.

    i think the blue suit was his comic look for a long time. i'm partial to it because i grew up reading this huge brick of silver age superman comics, and now i have a hard time picturing clark wearing...

    Ditko knocked it out of the park with the original Spider-Man suit. It's a weird costume— halfway between lucha libre and gimp bondage, without looking out of place in a children's superhero comic....
