Heroes Reborn is coming back

Personally, I blame Frank Miller's The Dark Knight Returns for taking "truth, justice, and the American way" to mean Superman would become a weaponized tool of the U.S. government and putting that impression of Superman in people's heads.

Supes was already losing a lot of popularity in the jaded world of the 80s, but DKR was a huge nail in the coffin. Leave it to DC to be their own worst enemy. It wasn’t Marvel that destroyed Superman, the killer came from inside the house.

Then Injustice made sure their was no recovery possible. Great job DC.

In HR we’re seeing Captain America as Hyperion’s “kryptonite”. Aaron saying that he is the real champion of truth, justice, and the American way.

Of course Nighthawk, as the Batman of this universe, is the one who can see the truth. The perfect Batgod (Hawkgod?) no matter what universe he’s in.
