I agree with you here. There is so much potential with Superman. LOSH, Supergirl, Conner Kent. This is just scratching the surface. I have not read a lot of Events. But DC One Million was an enthralling look into the future. I can understand the obsession with dystopian futures. But the likes of DC One Million is brilliant. All these fights, these victories shall matter. And a future which is actually a DC fan culture was awesome. That look was possible due to Superman.
Nowadays all they do is either make him weaker to prop up others, kill him, make him evil or the ever favorite origin story. Had there not been Rebirth i would not have been here.
Thank you for mentioning Superman and LOSH. I am going to read that pretty soon.
