However, as Myskin said, more from lost potential than actually anything concrete. Ultimately I guess New 52 Superman is essentially much like Heroes Reborn versions of Captain America, Iron Man etc in the day, just another alternate version who really won't have lasting impact on the ongoing legend of the character outside of the removal of the trunks and the brief flirtation with a Wonder Woman/Superman romance.
I will however, always look on Morrison's ACTION run fondly,and Perez's early attempts to redefine the Lois and Clark relationship and modernize the Daily Planet as well as Lobdell's Krypton stuff in SUPERMAN #0, DOOMED was fun, UNCHAINED was superior to FOR TOMORROW ultimately and a liked Greg Pak's runs on ACTION COMICS and BATMAN/SUPERMAN when it wasn't forced into crossovers ,SUPERMAN #39 and #40 were good and I must say, the first arc of SUPERMAN /WONDER WOMAN was good for what it was. The rest...unfortunately forgettable and I likely won't re-read it all. That though is more the fault of DC editorial.
But....R.I.P, Nuperman. You deserved much better and I will always keep a happy thought about the brief time you were great.
P.S.- Your costume still sucked though.
