You're not asking me because I like Superman but I'll say it anyway. I'm definitely going to pick it up.

WOHOO! CHAIN OF QUOTES!

Its is my hopes that they can do something good with Superman his new 52 reboot has been a dud. He has none of the same morals or character of his pre 52 version. I do not know how Snyder will do he seems to want to add horror elements to everything he writes and that is not a good fit for Superman. My hopes is Superman will be written closer to the pre 52 version.

@BR_Havoc: Yea New 52 really missed the mark with Superman, he's been the ultimate symbol of hope for decades then DC decides he needs to be all angsty its BS really and honestly I blame all those folks that mistake dark and gritty for quality. Not that dark and gritty are always bad but we don't need it with every damn character.

We see eye to eye on this matter. I think what DC did was say ok Marvels biggest hero is Spider-Man he is one of the most relatable characters in all of comics. Now many have said Superman is a character that is hard to relate to so lets just make him Peter Parker. Teenage angst does not work for a character like Clark Kent or Superman he is a character that is better off being written as a full grown adult. They should of done something similar to AquaMan with him keep his marriage in tact and start off there.

If I'm being totally honest, if the creative team is Snyder and Lee, I'll try the book regardless of the title character.

@BR_Havoc: I'm also not a fan of the loss of the mutual respect between Batman and Superman, I'm fine if DC doesn't want them to be close friends any more, I can deal with that. But adding him to the ranks of people Batman treats like ignorant children is infuriating. He's goddamned Superman, The origin of the term Super Hero he deserves more respect than that.

I agree with you but for some odd reason DC seems to write Superman being this like teenage personality in a heroes body it doesn't work. Superman should be every bit as mature as Batman.

Well,AC takes place five years in the past!And Superman's first year in the job!

As for SUPERMAN read the first issue of Scott Lodbell's run(issue 13) and you will see why you are wrong.

I am sorry but if you don't follow the series how can you judge?

I've attempted to get into Superman titles before, picked up a few issues here or there, just never got really into it. With my luck, I was probably always picking the crap. I've always wanted to like Superman and I'm a huge Batman fan and love when Bats and The Boy Scout meet up. I'm also a huge fan of Scott Snyder. I read Batman, Swamp Thing, Talon and I loved Severed and his run on Detective Comics. So when I heard that Snyder was taking on a Superman title (especially with Lee) I was very excited and I will be picking it up and I really do hope Snyder writes a Superman I can enjoy.

Well, there's only one way of knowing if you've been reading Super-crap or not: What have you read from Superman?

@SandMan_: GA Superman would put his bat ass through a wall for talking to him like that

@SandMan_: I didn't believe for a minute they would ever truly bring back GA Superman tho

Put me in the camp of preferring pre-52 Supes (shinning symbol of good, respected, all that jazz). I'll go a step further from what's been mentioned, in that I DO want him & Batman to be great friends again. Superman/Batman was probably my favorite all-time title. I want to see that title come back.

@Sharkbite: Devil's advocate - it takes a lot to use said-powers in an altruistic manner instead of serving one's own desires (or even straight up causing "evil" with them). Superman doesn't even use his abilities to give himself some extra money (making diamonds from coal to sell, selling kryptonian tech, anything like that) - he only uses them to protect people.
