    I have no dout in my mind that unchained will be Epic but I am wondering on how Snyder will write Superman in this title. Will it be dark and horror them end like Batman and swamp-thing or will it be more along the lines off for tomorrow ?

    maybe the set will be a bit horror-like but Snyder said that Supes is glimer of hope and he won't be "edgy"

    I think he'll do it good. from the interviews it seemed that he knew what superman stands for and isnt going to try to change him to appeal to haters like some other writers do.

    I've noticed this as well. Snyder's a great writer of darker stories, but I have faith that he will just use that darkness to contrast with Superman and make him seem even brighter :)

    Yeah, I remember than interview way before Unchained was announced where he described Superman and after reading it I felt he could make a pretty good Superman writer. I'm cautiously optimistic.

    He'll probably make Metropolis a character.

    As am I. I think Superman can use a little darkness, personally

    How do you mean? Superman himself should never be a dark character. The darkness should be around him in the story and characters to show Superman's goodness in an even better light. That's why I like What's So Funny About Truth, Justice and The American Way.
