The author seems to have missed that, in #6, Superman destroyed the White House with his heat vision. So much for that, But the article served the useful purpose of underlining, once more, how incredibly inconsistent and even dismissive this series has been of established vampire/superhero interactions in the DCU. I'm really disappointed by this. Back in the last "I, Vampire" series, Andrew Bennett taunted Mary with the prospect of what would happen to the vampires if they ever launched a war against the superhumans. He had a much better fix on what the reality should have been - spoiler, the vampires lose badly. But this series has completely undermined everything we know about so many heroes in order to make them bizarrely vulnerable to vampirism. It would have been a lot more satisfying if the writers had found a way to make the vampires a threat without completely jobbing DC's most powerful heroes.
