I don't know,but I'm not outraged at Lois taking over Lois' life as some here seem to be.( can't believe I just wrote that. Comics.)
Maybe it's also because I barely gave a damn about Nu Lois by the end of her tenure because the powers that be at DC were less interested in writing a fleshed out character for most of her time and more interested in writing her as a plot device to prove how much "different " Nuperman was . She was barely used anyway and when she was it was often poorly. Perez tried. Scott Snyder tried.Pak tried once in awhile,but no one else did. It likely was because for some reason editorial didn't let the writers use her. I used to think it was because of the other 'ship' DC was pushing with all their might for 10 minutes,but im not all that sure anymore. Either way,she was barely a character really and honestly,i can't really get upset about a cypher being replaced by a better fleshed out and defined version that we knew for 20 years. Is it awkward and stupid? Probably. However it's my ongoing belief Superman ,for whatever reason,as a line has been fundamentally damaged for a decade or more now, and they seem to be SLOWLY fixing things...and some of those fixes are going to be awkward and seem stupid in the short term. Huge retcons are coming to fix this eventually I assume,so for now I'm willing to wait and see.
