DC Rebirth: Superman News

[Dispenser Of Truth]

I'm not clear, but I'm pretty sure current Superman is still the lead of Action and Superman, just that the pre-Flashpoint family is there too.

[Sacred Knight]

I can't even tell if they're both starring the same version of the character in each of them.

If that's Superdad too it would certainly make the decision to just drop everything all the easier.

I didn't get the feeling the New 52 Superman was in it at all because he pointed out it was the pre-FP Superman family, then just said something about a Clark being in the book but it "not being what we think" or something stupid like that. Thus it didn't give me the impression the main Superman, if he can even be called that anymore, is in it at all.

I don't know, if he is in it I could rethink my position, but right now I'm just too exhausted to care anymore. We shouldn't have to be thinking this much about it and being this confused on something so simple as who the star of Action Comics is.

Even IF they're both in the titles sharing the spotlight, that's a nightmare of epic proportions.

[Prime]

Where is New 52 Superman? AND WHY JURGENS??? Dude is done.

[NeonZ]

One of the covers shows Pre-FP Superman removing the black suit to reveal that blue suit bellow it. So, yes, that's Pre-FP Superman and he doesn't have a beard. It actually makes me wonder if something is happening to New52 Superman considering how both would look very similar now.

[SSJett]

DC needs some new blood, not excited about any of this news. I'll keep the books dropped until they actually get their act together. What a joke.

Where is New 52 Superman?

Where is New 52 Superman?

I guess DC figured that him working his ass off made him worthless as a character so that he needed retconning for a guy who I am pondering what his excuses for being on the sidelines are. Which is funny considering I still would have a hard time buying the depowerment excuse or the never could show up on time excuse.

Yeah, I mean I'm trying not to get too paranoid about it, but given that: they didn't mention whether or not Superman would star New-52 Superman, Superdad is looking a lot younger and more like N52 Supes, Action Comics seems to be snagging Lex as a Villain, and somehow there is a kid running around with Superman's powers, well I'm starting to think that New 52 Superman might lose his powers and Superdad may takeover altogether.

No red boots on Superman's costume anymore! Just a pair of red stripes above blue boots.

Sounds like too much blue on the costume. It needs to be broken up.

[Myskin]

God, that's underwhelming.

[dumbduck]

Wait, what? Pre-52 Supes on Action? But it looks like post-52 on the cover? Or did they make pre-52 younger? What a nightmare.

* Dan Jurgens on Action with Patrick Zircher, Tyler Kirkham, Stephen Segovia. Pre-Flashpoint Superman Family moves to Metropolis, first storyline "Path of Doom" involves Lex declaring himself Superman of Metropolis (but New 52 Clark is still there and still seems to be the star), Doomsday coming to Metropolis.

I hope that's the truth. Still, like many others, I hope that Lois and Clark go back to their own unverse sooner rather than later.

[Dispenser Of Truth]

Yeah, I see it now, that's Pre-Flashpoint Superman in Tomasi's book.

With the exception of Supergirl (and hopefully Superwoman, don't know much about Jimenez's writing), this seems like an unqualified disaster on an even more significant scale than I would have anticipated.

[Vinsanity]

Underwhelming. Last year around this time had some much potential Ditto 2014 but now it is just like ehhhhh

[manofsteel1979]

Mark my words. They are merging both Supermen.
