    Not addressed.

    I want to know if the talk about Zor-El was just a fake out on Brainiac's part. I hope it is, at least.

    Doomed had an interesting premise, but it was dragged out for WAY too long. It started to DRAG in the middle, and it sounds like this issue had the opposite problem, it was really rushed. And the fact that WW was shoved to the sidelines/underused so much during all of this annoys the crap out of me.

    What talk about Zor-El? You mean Brainiac's prophecy about Kara?

    Brainy straight up told Supes that Cyborg Superman was Zor-El.

    I enjoyed it, personally. I have gripes, like leaving things like the Phantom King unresolved, and lets face it, the plot as a whole never made the highest of sense, but as a finale to me it delivered.

    And that final page, shoe-horned in or not, was awesome. If this was editorial meddling, it was GOOD editorial meddling for my money.

    Why would that be a fake-out? It's true. We found that out over a year ago in Supergirl #23 and followed up on in last year's gimmick month.

    As to the question of whether Lois still knows Clark is really Superman, we should find out all the answers in next week's Action, with the Doomed Aftermath. However, when it was thought Lois was cured the first time (when Lobdell was still writing) she had no memory of it. This time I hope she doe, maybe she'll become more important to the overall plot!

    Finally Doomed is over. This arc went on for way too long. I wasn't really impressed by this issue except for the end. I am looking forward to Action Comics 35 and Superman/Wonder Woman 12 since Superman is in them as we know from previews yet we saw him go into the black hole. I also didn't like how Wonder Woman only had 1 part in the finale. Seemed pretty weak since Superman/Wonder Woman was one of the main books in this cross over. Although I did like how Braniacs vision showed how much Clark cared about Diana and it was cool that Non was given some speaking lines for once and didn't need Zod or Faora/Ursa to be used.
    I love the New 52. I love the dark and grittiness of it and find that is what makes the most enjoyable superhero stories. At the same time I find All Star Superman to be the most depressing Superman story I have ever read. Yeah I'm weird.

    The center one yes (or a mirror version of pre-crisis). There is also Flashpoint verse, OMAC verse, among others.
    Searching for Samus Aran. Still.

    So.... what happened? Did Supes was purged from the Doomsday virus?

    A great ending for the Brainiac threat (though I give no f**ks about the multiverse), and I really enjoyed the issue but it was a weak ending to the actual "Doomed" arc.

    Superman opens black hole, Doomsday virus is drained away leaving regular Supes, both disappear.

    Sigh. I knew I was going to be disappointed by the one-shot ending.

    I'm hoping the aftermath gives us the new Doomsday, one that can't just be sliced in two by any Kryptonian. And is a constant super-powerful threat (Super-doom's power level changed as and when required in Doomed 2).

    "Has Sariel summoned you here, Azrael? Have you come to witness the miracle of your brethren arriving on Earth?"

    "I WILL MIX THE ASHES OF YOUR BONES WITH SALT AND USE THEM TO ENSURE THE EARTH THE TEMPLARS TILLED NEVER BEARS FRUIT AGAIN!"

    "*sigh* I hoped it was for the miracle."

    Dan Watters' Azrael was incredible, a constant delight and perhaps too good for this world (but not the Forth). For the love of St. Dumas, DC, give us more!!!
