Action Comics & Superman May Special Details

[Superlad93]

I was gonna pick these books up (and catch the last arc of Superman) out of gratitude for the work they did getting us to this point. Now I'm gonna pick these books up because Mark freakin' Russell is writing two Superman stories with Thompson and Hitch as artist. And they got Andrews doing art for Flynn.

I'm in there.

[Superlad93]

Just realized that Ian Flynn and Kaare Andrews may very well be the new team for Super Sons. Flynn is best known for writing Sonic the Hedgehog and Mega Man, and Kaare Andrews' slick and kinetic art style would be a very good successor to Jorge Jimenez's style.

I'd be very down to see this team on the book after the shake-up.

I'd hope they'd have more to offer Andrews.

This "drastic changes" adds credence to the theory that this MOS mini really is some kind of soft reboot. I don't think he'd undo the marriage or get rid of Jon, they'd be insane to let him do that, but it does sound like he's planning on making some kind of change to the character from what we've seen. I wonder what his conditions were for coming to work with them? Sounds like a huge risk.

There are some theories out there that parts of Doomsday Clock actually take place in the past, before Flashpoint, hence certain things like Batman wearing the Inc. suit and whatnot. Whether true or not, at the very least I think there's enough substance to the idea of some twists and turns that make it so I'm not comfortable looking to Doomsday Clock anymore to assume how things will be everywhere else come the summer.

Nope. That's not the 2010(?) suit. That was more complicated-looking than the suit in DOOMSDAY CLOCK. Everything in DOOMSDAY CLOCK is clearly happening in the near future relative to the current DC titles. Batman is just going to get a simpler, more "retro" suit than the one has now, which is fine by me. I really don't like the gloves and belt he's currently wearing. I just wish he'd get the trunks back -- it still looks like he's wearing a "onesie" without them.

I would love that team on super sons, love Ian's work on Sonic Archie comics. And you are right about Mark Russell news being excited, love his flinstones run. Great year of superman comics ahead!

I really hope Tomasi and Jimenez continue on Super Sons, that book is as close to being perfect as it can get.

Mark Russell on Superman, I being waiting for it for some time, with luck he will be the one replacing Percy on Green Arrow.

This makes me happy that they are letting Dan and Peter to finish their runs in style and on good terms.

Oh and both of those covers need to be posters, especially the ACTION one. That is one sick image by Jurgens.

[Superlad93]

I hope Andrews also co writes Super Sons with Flynn if they get the book.

And from what it's looking like, Scott Snyder is eyeing Jimenez for Justice League after No Justice, so it's unlikely that he'll be back on Super Sons. And there's a pretty strong possibility that Tomasi may leave Super Sons. I've yet to hear him confirm that he's staying on even when asked.

Also glad to hear Flynn's Sonic would is strong. I felt like I heard that around before, but I wasn't sure.

The unimaginable enemy Superman and Lex are going to face might be Cyborg Superman. Above is a WIP from Will Conrad's Instagram account.

[Sacred Knight]

Would make a lot of sense for Jurgens to close out his run using Hank. Of course it could be at the same time that this "unimaginable enemy" is some mastermind throwing a bunch of villains Superman's way.

Im with ya, if tom king leaves DC by DC 1000, (he likely will)...nothing he does will matter that much. I dont think bats and catwoman will get married lol.

And ya Doomsday Clock, whatever time it takes place in...I think will matter very little to what things are like afterward. It really just strikes me as a story to be told, contrasting the watchmen universe with the DCU. Johns creation...more than the semi-crisis event some (including me) initially thought it was gonna be.

Which is probably why Tom wrote the recent Batman annual the way he did, with a possible future depicting Bat and Cat as married. You can either take it as an Elseworld or an assurance that they will eventually get married in the far-off future regardless if their current engagement fails to last.

Lois and Clark only got married on their second engagement after all

[RedWhiteAndBlueSupes]

Joker seems to be eager to tear them apart...literally, judging by the cover of DC Nation #2. But I mean your right it's too early to tell for sure, I haven't read that annual but that sounds like a good resolution. Tom King is like the Dan Slott of Batman IMO, guy can't leave soon enough.

Will get the Action Special, I've really enjoyed Dan Jurgens run on the book, but will skip the Superman finale, I didn't care for the Dinosaur Island arc, but hope others will enjoy it!
