wow... This shit is why I have almost had it with Superman comics (and Superman is my favorite character). Before anything it has to be pointed out that the art in this issue is sub par to say the least. It may not even be the penciller so much as the god awful "by the numbers" color job on this issue. The photoshop fills and effects were extremely distracting. I nominate the pages where Superman and Lois are having their talk in the sky as the most awful use of a night sky background in the history of comics. Oliveira clearly puts more of his drawing skills into boobs and asses than faces as throughout the issue I think he used 2 or 3 character models for every person. As for the story its an investigation as to what goes through Lois Lane's head as she deals with Superman's walk across America. Most of the issue focuses on her feeling of inadequacy next to Superman and her being a "bad feminist". I don't understand why they chose to focus on her need for a suburban existance when clearly in every Superman story I have ever read/watched whatever she is presented as a strong no nonsense, self reliant reporter but here she is a woman who is struggling with not having a fulfilling job, a loving husband or a child... Oh wait she already has those things. This contrived story tries to convince us that Lois is this conflicted character who has issues being in Superman's shadow. As far as I know her being Superman's hot reporter friend ended with the 80s. I understand it was a fill in issue but god was it bad. Superman deserves way better than this and so does Lois Lane.
Plus they seemed to have created a new backstory for Lois Lane: she went to some random college in Indiana I wonder if that will stick or if it was an easy plot point because of the whole Superman walking his way through the midwest.
Props to wilson for wikipedaing "hypoxia"
