No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

Yeah, "Man of Steel's" not half bad, really. And it certainly served its purpose--to simplify and update Superman's origin.

At the time I thought some of its little changes to the Pre-Crisis Superman canon were kinda neat...Clark being a football hero, rather than a nebbish all his high-school career. And some of it I thought was "Eh".

Dug the Batman/Superman first meeting in the series, but hated the villain of that issue.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Yeah, the updates to Clark were really the biggest success there.

It seemed as if Byrne were using the George Reeves Clark Kent as his model, a choice that I heartily approved of.

with a gleam in my eye, and an almost airtight alibi

The current reboot of Superman in Superman: Birthright will be out in HC at the end of the year.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Yipes. It's a big week for me at the store:

  • Batman Legends Of The Dark Knight #181
  • Gotham Central #21
  • Green Arrow #40
  • Identity Crisis #2 (Of 7)
  • Nightwing #95
  • Teen Titans #13

Good thing for the box discount, else I'd be feeling like I'm blowing my whole budget in one place.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Heh. I had lunch with my Dad, and it's become a pattern that, after we go to lunch, we go to Half-Price Books, which now has comics.

Dad succeeded in making me feel 11 years old (not in a horrible, will-need-extra-therapy kind of way): I found about 5 or 6 back issues of Robin for 75 cents each, and I was making squee noises. Dad asked, "What do you DO with all those comics?"

Me: "Dad, what do you THINK I do with them?"
Dad: "Well, I know you read them, but do you....KEEP them?"
Me: "Dad, I keep everything I read."

Half-Price Books had an Impulse TPB, but since I'm not a particular Bart fan, I didn't buy it.

You know, the Impulse trade would probably cure you of that problem.

IJS.
