    Hold up, let me see if I have this right because it’s nuts. Are you telling me that Bendis just introduced not only in Justice League but the Checkmate series where Lois Lane is a leading character, the brother of Lois Lane who is a former government agent of ARGUS. So this would make this guy the brothers-in-law to Clark Kent and the Uncle to Jon, the soon to be Superman.

    Yeah, I thought Lois only had a sister, not a brother!

    Well, so far, has anybody else confirmed that Lois Lane has a brother?

    Well really there are two options, 1. Sam Lane hid a brother from Lois/Lois forgot all about him or 2. This is some guy that Sam Lane adopted and raised up to be a soldier

    Not according to Bendis...

    I always thought the whole "Bendis doesn't other people's book" was just a meme, but the man truly writes his own continuity.

    It's Bendis. He aims for "a little humorous."

    Yeah that’s a possibility but lying to Green Arrow and Black Canary about it would seem to me like a real odd choice. In that scenario I would lie more to Jon Kent, he’s young and impressionable with the powers of Superman and he probably wouldn’t know whether he has an uncle or not.

    But if you're buying time it could work.

    I have a really hard time believing in this whole "Lois Lane brother" thing. Like they just drop this random guy here and suddenly he's Lois Lane's brother? I know Bendis is writing Lois in Checkmate but this feels out-of-place. I doubt this guy is either genuine or likely to live long.

    Also I feel like they could have resolved that conversation in half the panel time.

    But . . . it's Bendis!

    What else can you expect of his "writing" abilities?

    Actually, if Lois has a brother, that just makes Sam Lane even worse because he always hard on Lois and Lucy because they weren't the sons he wanted.
