I personally would like to see Superman in more cosmic stuff but not all the time. I really liked how during New Krypton while Kal was away he had Mon-El defend Metropolis. I'd like to see a story or arc that goes something like Superman Comics features Superman out in space for a time while Action Comics features Mon-El defending the city (he could also take his spot in the league while he's away). Something of a "here and now" story.

Superman would be a great cosmic character.
He could be put as a leader to an intergalactic team(GotG-esque) since his mission about Truth and Justice is universal.
Superman, Adam Strange, Captain Comet,Hawkgirl, Kilowog( it's only natural that a GL would be in a vigilante police team to keep an eye on it) it could work...I think.

id read that so hard my eyes would tear through the pages......but dc probably wont do this....you know because its a good idea

Does mon el even exist in the new 52?

Yep supes maybe something with pax galactica

@2cool4fun: I don't know....I'm sure he will eventually

He's currently in Justice League United.

I always wanted an story arch about Supes on a comics walkabout

@jonny_anonymous:

Did you mean "cosmic" walkabout?

@sog7dc: whoops

@jonny_anonymous: I was confused for a second lol. I wondered if you were talking about a Morrison style meta-comic.

@squalleon: too complicated. Just Supes and Lobo(90s)

What about that was complicated?

A well balanced team formed by DC's most popular cosmic characters, fighting for truth and justice its pretty much universal justice league. Its not that complicated!

Considering the X-men are still out there selling well even though their history is a huge mess of continuity and Morrison is considered one of the best comic book writers I HARDLY think my idea was complicated.

Also I see a book about Supes and Lobo teaming up being only a mini-series. Especially considering their chemistry.

@squalleon: That's just it, a cosmic Superman wouldn't be a regular book, right?

I always liked the stories where Superman hung around Metropolis and interacted with the Daily Planet and all that stuff. I don't mind seeing him in some cosmic stuff sometimes though I wouldn't want what happened to Green Lantern happen to him.

I think having Mon-el go do more cosmic stuff. It'd be cool to see DC take chances and give books to characters like Mon-el. I am getting tired of the same extra Batman or Superman book.

I really want some cosmic/off earth arcs for Superman. I've wanted it for years. I was stoked for New Krypton when it first came out and sorely disappointed when it turned out to be bleh. So yeah, put Superman in space! And, since he has two main titles, it's not like he has to leave Metropolis either.

@squalleon: it was a great idea, seriously.

Why not? I really don't see a problem.

Thanks :D

I like to think it has a good amount of fan-service and practicallity.

@squalleon: Only idfference is that I'd swap out Kilowog for Indigo-1. I like them for some reason.

I put them with an objection in mind.
Raan and Thanagar are DC's most well known alien planets(except krypton and the fourth world) that have the potential to create multiple titles. They have been the center of plenty of events in the DCU and have known characters living or born there. Also I feel their animosity towards each other and rivarly would prefectly justify why Strange and Hawkgirl are there, to make sure that both planet's interests are met. I think a GL would fit better in terms of plot, just because the GL's protect and have knowledge on the whole universe, the only reason I picked Kilowog was for fan-service to make use of him since we don't get enough of him and he is a fan-favorite. As for Captain Comet(I was thinking of the GA/SA version), I picked him because he is a classic cosmic character that should be in there for both of a nod to the history of the DCU and because he could play the role of the guide, considering he is the only character who has travelled extensively among the stars.The odd choice here is Superman. But considering he is the character who paved the way for the DCU to expand since his creation and multiple times after that, like in Kirby's Jimmy Olsen or in Final Crisis, I think his appearance is perfectly justifiable, Superman is to the expansion of the world of DC, what Flash is to the crisis.

Can I say both?

I would like to see Superman going on a long trip through the galaxy, and he could leave someone like Superboy in his place.

I think it's time those two at least get to know each other, and starting to build a friendship of mutual respect.

That way if Pax Galactica or any other extraterrestial race, group or even a cosmic entity required Superman help, he could simply leave Kon in charge of things until he came back.

Mon-El in some ways is a card out of the deck. He's in the future with the Legion and honestly I don't see him coming back.

So the most logic choice would be Superboy. At least until we see if the events seen in Future's End happen has it has been hinted or things change, and both Power Girl and Val-Zod come to Earth and specially in the case of Val-Zod, Superman takes it upon himself to help him adjust and he becomes someone that can replace Superman when he's off planet.
