I liked this a lot. Old-school superheroics cranked up to 11. Lot of fun ideas. If I had a complaint, it’s that the story burned through some of the plot points too quickly. The resolution of the...
Yeah, her dad’s comment about her being the alpha was probably the nail in the coffin.
Do we know where the DoD super people came from? I may have missed that. Can’t remember if they are holdovers...
Hope not. I’ve had enough of Edge, holodad and the whole Krypton plot line. Hope next season is something different.
Well, that was OK, I guess. I didn’t find the conclusion to the big arc very satisfying. It felt like Clark and co. got the win because it was the finale and it was time to get the win, rather than...
I don’t doubt there are plenty of petty tyrants at any publishing company with as many stakeholders as DC, but, at the same time, I suspect there would be a lot less interference if, say, the...
Agree — I think that part will stick. Increasing diversity is one of the few things that do these days. But who Tim dates, whether he’s in love with Connor or Steph or Bernard, whether he’s torn...
But fans now insist on an integrated, continuity-heavy universe dominated by epic events. You don’t get that by letting each writer do their own thing. Personally, I’d rather have shorter, smaller...
Yeah, I’m not too worried about it. There are already plenty of gatekeepers who scream online about who characters can’t and can’t date. In that sense, Tim’s orientation is irrelevant.
Besides,...
Bernard isn’t a new character. He’s from Tim’s solo.
I’m in the camp hoping this returns some focus to Tim’s private life. Know-it-all superhacker is a dead end. Tim is my favorite character but...
Could the Iron Major’s metal hand move, like a robot? Or was it just a solid piece of iron?
I never realized until now that Sgt. Rock was a redhead.
I have to admit, I found this episode pretty confusing. So I’m guessing John Henry stole Luthor’s tech/ship? How did he survive getting hit by the truck and knocked 30 feet in the air? And I must...
Pre-52 Tim Drake Robin!
I’ve never found DC’s continuity all that taxing ... until this year. I stopped buying monthlies in favor of DC Universe last year, but I thought Future State looked interesting and considered...
I guess I’m cynical. To me, the only thing really worth keeping out of the New 52 was Morrison’s Superman, and he was the definition of a known quantity on the character. At this point, I think I’d...
Elong-Gator!

This is what I don’t get about the perpetual appeal of reboots. If people writing bad comics are still writing the comics after the reboot, why would the product be any better?
Personally, I think the problem was the same issue that plagues DC to this day: “Reboot” implies they’re clearing the decks for a fresh new era of storytelling ... but they aren’t really interested...
Funny, this was probably my favorite so far. I really enjoyed the flashbacks and got a chuckle out of the “high end” 32” box TVs being stolen. I liked seeing Jon being human. And I loved seeing how...
Some people just aren’t going to dig the Silver Age, and that’s OK. Personally, I love it. I enjoy seeing how the characters and universe evolved over time.
That said, I think some characters are...
The freak of the week may prove to be a necessity, to some degree, just to get some Superman into these episodes. The stuff with the kids and Sam Lane is fine, but I’m watching Superman and Lois for...
I stopped watching Flash and the other CW shows, so I’m happy this is standalone. I just wish they had stayed away from parallel Earths/doppelgängers — that was one of the things that wore me out on...
I wish they’d gone with a different art style. It needed to be its own show, not BTAS’ lesser sibling.
Maybe Edge is working on an evil Superman like the one Luthor’s worried about? I imagine these plotlines will end up tying together somehow.
It was a lot with the kids this ep, but I was glad they...
Agreed. I just wish DC wrote the stories to reflect that.
