Are There Two Supermen In the New 52 Universe?

[Minerboh]

I just picked up Lois And Clark #1.
Was that pre Flashpoint Superman trying to live a life in the N52?

[Sacred Knight]

Yeah, pre-FP Superman, Lois, and their son somehow got stranded on the main Earth after the events of Convergence. Chronologically they arrived shortly before the era of superheroes even began (before the public debut of Superman and Darkseid's first invasion).

[Thor-Ul]

Just let's hope he doesn't end like the previous Superman who lived the same situation.

[Ascended]

To expand on what Sacred told you; Superman has spent the last few years attempting to prevent some of his villains from manifesting in the current continuity. We havent gotten to deep into that yet, but the general idea is....if a lab accident turns a scientist into, I dunno, Riot (a minor post-Crisis villain) then Superdad (as I call him to differentiate him from 52 Clark) stops the lab accident from happening at all. If Imperiex is approaching earth, Superdad steers him in another direction.

He's also doing this on the down low, for reasons Im still sort of murky on. So as not to step on any toes I guess? To protect his wife and son?

There are some issues here of course; the main one being that most of Superman's biggest foes have shown up already. So even if Superdad prevents Rudy Jones from becoming Parasite, it seems that someone else is destined to anyway.

We'll all learn more as the series develops I suppose. Despite the problems I have with the idea, the first issue was decent enough.
