Superman Reborn Part One Preview (Newsarama)

[FishyZombie]

In May, WW Annual #1 (re)tells the first meeting between Wonder Woman, Superman and Batman set 10 years ago during Diana's "Year One". On the cover, Batman has his New 52 costume while Superman... no.

The world of the Amazing Amazon expands in a collection of short stories that take Wonder Woman around the globe! In the days after “Year One,” Diana comes face-to-face with Superman and Batman for the first time, as illustrated by “Year One” artist Nicola Scott…and years later, Liam Sharp brings you the story of how their friendship has evolved!



I guess Sacred Knight will finally find out if Rucka still has his "Batman fetish".

huh, I guess Justice League Origin is out now. figures. I wonder if (I'm guessing that's merged N52/PC Supes) has the trunks on, you can't tell from that angle.

*Sigh* Yeah I'm done after this Reborn bs.

This is the new suit folks,look at those cuffs,neither nuperman nor superdad has them,so it's reborn superman.

This is probably the most convulted moment in Superman history.

[manofsteel1979]

Looks like his entire history is being retconned...again. So Nuperman is just being wiped from history altogether. What about his pre-Flashpoint history? Is that being wiped too? So Lois and Superman didn't come from another dimension? This is too convoluted even for DC. My guess is it's New 52 Superman who went insane and broke out. Flashes of his past life with no context. So when he meets Superdad again he'll be in some kind of feral mode.

It's too early to say what's in or out. My hope is just the broad strokes of the pre FLASHPOINT history remains, with more emphasis towards his pre Crisis history. That would be more compatible with Morrison's intro arc. Most of Nuperman's adventures can still exists where they don't flat out contradict the previous history. Just shuffle the order of events a little and you can even have much of the SM /WW stuff happening before he and Lois got together.

Nope. I'd actually say around 2003-2005 would still take the cake for convolution.

That would be perfect.

Really excited to see this first meeting. And hopefully see a lot of firsts of the new Superman over the next year. One thing I do hope they do is have Jon's birth still be in the batcave in the new timeline.

This is something I'm kind of confused about when they want to integrate Superman into the current time line. Does that mean that everything he's done will shift around to mesh with the current universe? Things will happen different but still have happened?

Here are all the pics of reborn superman together,no.fan art

Such a great time to be a Superman fan, right?

Are we sure that isn't actually Nicola Scott's rendition of N52 Superman? I thought maybe he was wearing the jeans.

Well Rucka is more of a Batman guy than a Superman guy, that's just a fact. Some people just don't gravitate towards the character.

Whaa? Rucka wrote Superman for a long time, about as long as he wrote WW in fact. His run on Superman was pretty good, too.

[Godlike13]

Could it be Chris Kent.

Nah, definitely Reborn Superman. That's his new costume design and new 52 superman had a armored costume.

That is what the cover of action comics post reborn indicates. I'm guessing it's going to be like how batman was when the new 52 started, with a bunch of events from the past fitted in a tight 5 year timeline.
