I like how he’s writing Clark and Lois and I like everything he’s said about them so far. Which isn’t surprising to me, because the only time I ever cared about Pete and MJ was when he wrote them in Ultimate Spider-Man (it’s legitimately the only part of Spencer’s Spider-Man that doesn’t work for me, I just don’t care).
In regards to comicbook marriages, I think only certain characters work as married. Ralph and Sue Dibny are the perfect example of a comicbook marriage (even more so than Clark and Lois), while Rogue and Gambit is complete and utter trash that disrespects both characters (but that’s just what you get when you put nostalgic fanservice ahead of good storytelling).
Anyways, I like that Bendis described Action as the flagship DCU book starring Clark Kent. Seeing everything connect to each other is the appeal of a shared universe, but it can sometimes be tough to make things work with other writers, so even if Bendis only connected things to the other stuff he’s writing, I’m happy. I’m excited to see what him and Sook are working on for next summer, if it’s LoSH related I, and probably everyone else on this board, will probably **** their pants, but, watch it’s Conner and Jon meeting.
