Action Comics #966 (spoilers)

[Dolores - The Worst Poster Ever]

I just got done reading yet another terrible issue of Action. With Superman improving, and Action getting better since the terrible Doomsday arc, I thought while Action hadn't become decent like Superman, it was still going to continue improving, but I thought this was one of the worst issues so far.

Maybe I'm harder on this issue than I should be. Superwoman is a book I'm really enjoying, so seeing the titular character of that book in a book I dislike has me being more negative than I otherwise would be, but from page 6 onward I was cringing my way through the issue.

Now I'm going to go read Batgirl, which will no doubt be considerably better.

I thought the issue wasn't too bad, but then again I've grown really tired of Superwoman so maybe I wasn't bothered like you.

I appreciate that they just ripped the bandage off with this Lois thing and said "yeah we're doing it." I had a pretty good time with the issue as a whole.

The issue was... alright for Action comics? Idk, I was promised a Lois Lane investigation and what I got was half of a book devoted to Clark and Jon and the other half Lois being told what happened from Lana. Why was Lana even there? Does she randomly go to Lois' apartment in the most convenient of times? These are all questions.

Last issue she said she had been waiting for somebody to come for New 52 Lois. This issue she says she's keeping the death of New 52 Lois a secret, and can't tell Lois' loved ones what happened.

It made no sense for her to be in Lois's apartment.

That's... not contradictory. And frankly it's not unlike the expedience that happens in almost every fictional work ever. As a superhero, why would she not have her finger on the pulse?

Both Action and SW to me are a little weaker than the other Super titles, but when I think of what we were getting before New 52 Death, I am very glad to have them.

And I thought this was the best issue of Action yet, even though yet more villains loom in that goofy 90s way. This really did well by Lois look no other book in a long time, and the other characters were just fine.

but Lois didn't really do anything.

but Lois didn't really do anything.

...eh okay lol. This is a "spoiler" thread so:

She went into the DP to figure out what happened to nuLois, then followed up on the visions by getting into the apartment of nuLois. When she encountered Superwoman, she brought in Superman for assistance. She then accessed the computer of nuLois to get her final words. Once everything was hashed out, she followed up not only on pursuing a career for herself (outside of the writing she'd already done) but concluding the work nuLois set out to do while protecting their secrets. The entire issue was centered around Lois and nuLois, with Lois narrating.

[Dispenser Of Truth]

Oh god, they're really doing it, they're really doing the body-snatcher shit, oh god it's exactly as creepy as I thought it'd be.

I just got done reading yet another terrible issue of Action.

I'm really glad I didn't bother as I'm pretty sure you're way more forgiving than I am.

I read the preview. That was enough.
