Pfft it could never be as good as the silver age comic book
Fan Campaign for a LOIS LANE Series Gains Industry Notice
I have to say I hope TPTB at DC do decide to make a new revamp of the "Superman's Girl Friend, Lois Lane." series that ran for 137 issues. I think Lois deserve her own title solo series adventures as Mrs. Superman/ The Daily Planet's top reporter .
899 issues later, and Superman is right back where he belongs, and he's got some surprising company.
DC Comics announced today via their blog The Source that with the Man of Steel's return to "Action Comics" in this April's 900th issue, a host of big name talent will help round out the now 96-page anniversary special. On top of the already announced 50-page main feature by current team of Paul Cornell and Pete Woods, the comic will contain contributions from "Superman: The Movie" director Richard Donner, incoming Superman movie screenwriter David Goyer and "Lost" co-creator Damon Lindelof. And on top of two covers by David Finch and Alex Ross, the book will also see an Adam Hughes cover contribution.
"Action" #900 also marks an end of many sorts as aside from concluding the period where Superman was kept out of books outside his eponymous title due to J. Michael Straczynski's "Grounded" story line, it will be the final chapter in DC's just begun "Reign of Doomsday" crossover.
For more on the issue's particulars, check out The Source, and stay tuned to CBR in the weeks ahead for an inside look at "Reign of Doomsday."
What be you giggling about Assassin
I meant Geoff Johns. Sorry, had to write that in a hurry as I was leaving awhile ago.
Anyway, finally got around to reading Superman 707 thanks to JTStarkiller. Honestly, it didn't seem as bad as many made out. I won't go as far as saying it was good or anything, and sure, the stuff with Lois did kind of upset, but it was blatantly obvious there was some kind of mind control going on. I mean, the chick was even voicing his exact words. It wasn't the total turnaround people were hoping for, but I remain fairly optimistic after this issue.
