Adventures of Superman: Jon Kent Announced

[Vordan]

Superman: Son of Kal-El is ending with issue 18 and this is replacing it. Jon will be fighting Earth 3 Ultraman and I guess Val-Zod is showing up here too. Taylor is the writer, no shock he’s going to try and bring in his own Superman successor.

Jon being the electric Superman is such a dope ideia. I always liked that design.

Hope Earth 2 is a mix of all Earth 2's this time around.

Earth 3 was recently rebooted.

Yes I will still be supporting Tom Taylor as he writes Jon Kent, though I hope with Ultraman he just ignores War for Earth-3. Normally I wouldn’t say that but…well the stories just bad.

Looks like it’s just a six issue mini:

Lastly, it was announced that Superman: Son of Kal-El will end with issue #18, but fans of Jon Kent do not need to worry! Writer Tom Taylor and artist Clayton Henry will be telling new Jon Kent stories in Adventures of Superman: Jon Kent. Jon will finally get his chance to take on the man who is responsible for kidnapping and torturing him, Ultraman. The Superman of Earth-2, Val-Zod, will also play a major part in the 6-issue miniseries arriving in comic shops in March.

Clayton Henry is on art. Personally my hope is that after this Taylor will be done with Jon and the mainline Superman books in general.

Yeeeeah once he's got all this out of his system I'm gonna need him to end Nightwing too and stick to his Elseworlds and team books (I'd actually love to see him write for the Titans).

I miss enjoying Taylor's work. He's been fumbling like hell with both of his ongoings.

I like Val-Zod so I am glad he will be showing up again. I'll never fault creators for using the characters they create.

Jon being the electric Superman is such a good direction for the character and will allow him to stand on him own in the long run.

I've been mostly enjoying SSOKE so I'll support this book.
