b. In Grounded, Superman has been acting completely out of character, BUT NOW IT'S A PLOT POINT.
c. I agree, Lois was drawn in a ridiculous outfit, but her character was 100% right. She cared about Superman, the town, and above all, THE TRUTH. (Btw, the conflict where she and Superman were both "not wrong" is often how legitimate disagreements between couples occur.)
d. There ARE towns where one plant is the main employer. Your ranting to the contrary is nonsensical and irrelevant.
e. Again, THE SUPERMAN SQUAD, LOIS LANE, and the MYSTERIOUS MS. JENNINGS ALL PROVIDE EVIDENCE THAT SUPERMAN IS ACTING COMPLETELY OUT OF CHARACTER, FOR SOME REASON TO BE EXPLAINED NEXT ISSUE.
f. This review shows a serious lack of critical thought and rational analysis. I suggest reading the issue again, more slowly.
Lois is thinking clearly, and Superman isn't. Plus, you've got the ominous lady from the earlier Grounded issues stalking Supes, pleased at his moral confusion. I mean, it's all right there in the book, man.
This review sounds like it was written by someone who skimmed the book, rather than read it.
@kirkerson Seriously man, I'm honored to have drawn your first con sketch. See you at the next one! :)
@neums Thanks, dude! If you're in Austin, I can do one for you at Austin Books anytime. Just lemme know.
