I don't know if it has occurred to anyone else, but it seems that Lewis is actually reinventing the Superman and Clark Kent dynamic via Jon Kent and Jake Jordan The Guardian.

His Jon section, while extremely introspective and character driven, is ultimately operating on a scale and level befitting Superman. And the struggle for Jon is keeping in touch with that humanness while aspiring to the near deific levels of his father. In a lot of ways this is very much the Silver age Superman insofar as the stories are ultimately about his internal conflict and insecurities made flesh and scaled waaaaay up.

While Jake's section of the story is so effected yet removed from Jon's that while he and the people of the city feel the fallout, they don't actually have a clear enough picture as to why because its ultimately the dealing of gods, and they're left to interpret. And most people don't know this, but Jake is actually a reporter (super reporter, but still reporter), and that's why Lewis ultimately makes his story a detective story (and a damn good one too!). And Jake takes the everyman aspect of a Clark Kent and replaces the bumbling with being a person of color and 9 to 5 average Joe who just wants to feel like a little more than he is.

If going forward the main Superman book functions like this, where it's Jon wrestling with internal conflict while literally wrestling with TIME LUCHADORS, and Jake deals with the fallout and gets the scoop alongside Lois, Jimmy, and the rest of the Planet staff, then that sounds like a damn fine Superman book to me.
