There is definitely a market for this and what frustrates me is that Lois (and the romance) is extremely popular outside comics circles but most of those women don't read comics because the Superman books are so inconsistent with how they treat her. When Smallville was on the air, the LnC board "Divine Intervention" was frequented by thousands of women a day. Thousands of women creating content, talking about Superman and having deep convos together. I remember distinctly that many of them wanted to read comics but it wasn't long after the show ended that the new 52 dropped and most of them just faded away as potential customers. The market doesn't reflect these women as a demo and it's sad and limiting to the stability of the franchise. I'm old enough to remember the huge female fandom that drove "Lois and Clark" too. I was only a little kid then but I used to sneak on the boards (using good old AOL) and read all the fandom discussions. The board for LnC was still active for years. It only slowed down in the last few years when, sadly, the woman who ran it died of cancer.
. She was a lifelong Superman fan and a real leader for women in the franchise. It made me so sad to hear she had passed away.
The Lois YA novels are, according to Bond, the reason other characters like Batman, Wonder Woman etc are getting novels now. The trilogy was popular and got a Kirkus star which is a big deal in the publishing world. Obviously, those books have a teen slant but they are notable for a perfect blend of heroism and individual development for Lois and a teen romance with Clark as a side plot. The 3rd book ends (spoiler alert!) with the two of them kissing each other in person and Lois tells Clark that she ::will:: find out his secret one day. Clark says that he knows she will. You get the sense they meet back up again later on as adults. It's really well done.
Personally, I would like to see a romance book in the vein of The Outlander Books which are also about a husband and wife in rather supernatural/intense circumstances. Several women on Tumblr have actually pitched this idea even as a show rooted in the Outlander style. The overall point, I think, is that there is a base that wants a story that really focuses on their marriage in all it's complex, mature, messy, romantic glory. I have zero doubt that if CW wanted to launch a Superman show again and really cater to women as an audience they should do a "Lois and Clark" reboot. But I would want it done right with the right tone, the right budget and the right maturity. In the meantime though, I would kill to see Outlander author Diana Galdabon write Superman. Her work with Jamie and Claire (who do bear some resemblance to Lois and Clark in some ways) shows she would get it. After all, Henry Cavill himself has openly referred to Jamie Frazier as "the Scottish Superman." LOL
