    Well, that might in many ways. But in other ways they are not. Nuances are definitely different.

    (Diana I think is forgivable...but I don't think Batman would).

    ooh wow it's over two hours, I'll listen to it on my way to school lol.
    Speaking of Fraction's Jimmy Olsen, is there a certain thread? I can't seen to find it.

    I’m going to make a general series discussion thread when the next issue comes out, but if you want to make that now feel free.

    What is the origin story for the current Superman? Is it just Secret Origin or Man of Steel or New 52 or a combo of a bunch of stuff?

    It looked like Secret Origin at first but now we know the Kents died earlier than that showed + Clark never met the Legion as a kid, so that's out along with the New 52. I'm just gonna say that until something actively contradicts it it's Birthright because Birthright rules.
    Buh-bye

    It’s the bare bones of Secret Origin right now. Clark and Lex grew up in Smallville but weren’t close friends. Clark’s parents died on his prom night (although that might change with Doomsday Clock, we’ll see). Clark went to college and traveled the world before making his debut as Superman in Metropolis. He never met the Legion as a kid (as of right now anyway). Otherwise it follows Secret Origin.

    I need to go reread it one of these days. I always liked it but it never really made it into “greatness” for me. Maybe it will move up in rank after I reread it again. Personally either Wolfman’s Man and Superman, Morrison’s Action, Or American Alien are my preferred origins.

    As far as I'm concerned, we don't really have a firm origin until 5G hits.

    Granted, that's also going to retcon Superman back to, like, WWII so I'm not really sure how they're going to handle it.

    And they’re bringing back his adventures as Superboy. We’re basically going back to full on Pre-Crisis lol.

    Fraction seems to have just casually confirmed that Ma and Pa are alive current day.

    Also the Heroes and Villains special sounds outstanding. Truly can't wait.
    "Mark my words! This drill will open a hole in the universe. And that hole will become a path for those that follow after us. The dreams of those who have fallen. The hopes of those who will follow. Those two sets of dreams weave together into a double helix, drilling a path towards tomorrow. THAT's Tengen Toppa! THAT'S Gurren Lagann! MY DRILL IS THE DRILL THAT CREATES THE HEAVENS!" - The Digger

    We walk on the path to Secher Nbiw. Though hard fought, we walk the Golden Path.

    Man, remember all those years of DC being so against depicting Clark as Superboy in any context? They couldn't even call him Superboy in the Legion cartoon .

    So, does this have anything to do with doomsday clock?
