I don't know, with how Monguls are I wouldn't be surprised if one day there wasn't a big brawl with "throne" changing hands 10 times. So 1792 might not be as long as it sounds
Taking down Mongul is a huge deal for most characters, generally. That Clark's basically the Belmont to their Dracula is a big reason his crest is known across the universe.
I don't think they get deposed easily except by their offspring who usually need to mature into adulthood to do so anyway.
“Look, you can’t put the Superman #77s with the #200s. They haven’t even discovered Red Kryptonite yet. And you can’t put the #98s with the #300s, Lori Lemaris hasn’t even been introduced.” — Sam

Interesting you think that given PKJ has said he wants to focus on the SUPER side of Superman and that Chris Reeves Superman is his favorite incarnation. Reeves’ “Clark” was very much the disguise whereas “Superman” was more real. Don’t know that someone so adamant that Clark is the real identity would do a cosmic epic story like what PKJ is attempting.

I think his view of Superman is "Reeve, but as Clark Kent," which is a pretty modern look at the dude. I think PKJ really loves the mythological element of Superman, where he's a man who should be a god but instead views himself a man with ultimate humility. At least that's what I've gleaned from his interviews. If I may put words in his mouth, he likes "Superman, of the people" more than "Superman, benevolent strange visitor."
I don't believe Clark Kent being the primary identity precludes him from being the protagonist in some cosmic gladiator saga.
Hell, my views are he does lean more Clark then Kal but I don't think he discounts Kal one bit. That's a big part of him, not just some trivia... But he was raised for over a decade as a human boy so I think if you asked him his name, any day of the week he'd refer to himself as Clark Kent unless he was protecting his identity or referring to himself in a more Kryptonian/Cosmic context.
wierd considering reeve superman wasn't a chain breaker at all.That superman had to bow to the chains and needed help.
Reeve superman was more benevolent visitor for me.Not much of a gladiator or a circus strongman.It's weird Seeing the savior thing being used with chains symbolism Here.And yes for me,The guy feels like savior here so far.That might change After he gets enslaved on war world.

I know that sales numbers are now hard to track and should be taken with a very big bag of salt, but: https://icv2.com/articles/markets/vi...-november-2021
Jon was #6, which is not very surprising considering that this issue got lots and lots of attention. But real good news is that Action 1036 is 49th. If I'm not mistaken this is the first time Action makes ICV2's top 50. Maybe tide is turning?
