"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.
The poor man’s one goal in life has been to write Superman let him have this . Waid is uneven nowadays, his Dr. Strange has been great but his Avengers was dreck. I’m not saying he’ll write another all timer but he will write a Superman story that doesn’t feature current Superdad, and I am curious to see what he would do. But I would be more excited by Hickman/Ewing writing Superman, and I’d be more curious what someone like Priest writing Superman would be like.
I’d love to see both of them get another Superman project. Yang’s Smashes The Klan was great and I’m a big fan of Pak’s run, as compromised as it was. With Pak I’d want him writing a young Superman though, he did that really well.
Absolutely gorgeous. Anyone else seeing some Lex in Conner? He’s got a cocky look that screams Luthor to me.
Glad that some artists ditch Conner's stubble. Though Bendis has another swing and a miss with this idea that Conner should also resemble Lex somewhat. But if that's what Frank is going for, he hits it. But its a great piece of art overall.
"They can be a great people Kal-El, they wish to be. They only lack the light to show the way. For this reason above all, their capacity for good, I have sent them you. My only son." - Jor-El
It's nice to see Kara in the red skirt again.
I thought Waid's Avengers was solid. Not mind-blowing and it could never settle on a specific direction, and he had no idea what to do with Spider-Man, but it was good, standard, Avengers stories.
He did have Thor be unknowingly a part of slaughtering an innocent race of aliens that kind of fell off the radar.
Now that you mention it, that looks like Frank's Luthor face. Or maybe I'm just seeing it because you mentioned it :P.Absolutely gorgeous. Anyone else seeing some Lex in Conner? He’s got a cocky look that screams Luthor to me.

Nope, that is true. But especially not Pak, whom did a particular different version so well.
