Superman by Josh Williamson and Jamal Campbell Discussion & Spoilers

[Vordan]

Kind of reminds me of Secret Origin Parasite.

They’re both based on STAS, but this one isn’t fat and has a different mouth which is how I prefer Parasite look. The fat bastard Parasite that Frank drew was more gross and pathetic looking than scary, at least to me.

Hmmmm Lois is looking fiiiiiiiiine!!

[Sacred Knight]

Yeah I concur his Lois is really attractive. Is it still being drawn with the red highlights? It looked like it in that big splash, so beyond wishing it was just black, it looks really good. I wonder though how it would look with bangs to homage Garcia Lopez's take. It's really close to that style already.

Major All-Might vibes with his Superman too. Which isn't a bad thing, since Superman was basically his inspiration too so it's just coming back around.

[Superboy-Prime]

I just think that this Superman series really needs to be about a hero who is polite, and nice, and kind like the Man of Steel was Pre-Crisis.

At this rate Williamson is going to tweet out his entire story

I love the little tap tap...POW. It's so Looney Tunes that I love it more.

[Venceremos]

-Recapturing the Triangle Era is a goal of the new book

IT’S THE DAWN OF DC!
Superman has returned to Metropolis and his greatest enemy Lex Luthor is finally behind bars. The future of the Superman family has never been brighter! As Clark Kent settles back into his life, iconic and new enemies erupt from the shadows to strike down the Man of Steel! But waiting in the wings to back up Big Blue is…Supercorp?! What secret project has Lex given to Superman?! “A hero is only as good as their villains” will be put to the test in this brand-new oversize #1 featuring comics’ greatest superhero by DC Comics architect Joshua Williamson and award-winning superstar artist Jamal Campbell!

Super-Corp huh? Guess Lex may have left control of his company to Clark of all people.

The funny thing is Batman doesn't have a company at the moment .

[Vordan]

Last Superman cover we’ll get from Federeci for a while I expect. Remind me of some 70s scifi novels I read, I like it.

The funny thing is Batman doesn't have a company at the moment .

It would be kind of funny if both Superman and Nightwing are richer than Bruce is currently.

Livewire??!!

That's always a fun treat. I always thought it was a shame she didn't get more panel time. She was one of the truly fantastic gems from the TAS

Who do you think these characters are? Do you think you can be teenager Clark meeting the young Lex?

Who do you think these characters are? Do you think you can be teenager Clark meeting the young Lex?

Could be them. I believe Secret Origin is more or less the canon origin, which means Clark and Lex knew each other in Smallville, and given the importance Lex is said to have in Williamson’s Superman run I would not be surprised if he calls back to their childhood relationship.
