From Joshua Middleton:
Here is the cover to Supergirl issue 37, which actually features Superwoman. The cover follows a theme DC is running through several books the same month, with a character on a black background and up-lighting of some sort.

Superwoman?

Jesus Christ, ENOUGH with the super-people already. The first Crisis was about cleaning all of this shit out - now, here we are bringing it all back. We're a fucking monkey & horse away from the Silver Age.
ReplyDeleteSo I guess Superwoman is evil. Since she's on a special cover during DC's whole "Faces of Evil" month.
ReplyDeleteI just dumped Supergirl off my pull list at MLC and yeah I think I did it just in time. This is like DC as a giant snake just eating it's self it's all weird and wrong.
ReplyDeleteWe'll see. I won't judge until I have the issue in my hands.
ReplyDeleteY'know, that's usually what I say - I'll wait & see to reserve judgement. But Goddammit, I'm sick & tired of all this retro bullshit. Come up with something new, instead of "Ultimatizing" Silver Age stories. Between Zod & the PZ criminals, Krytpo, the bottle city of Kandor, Superwoman, & the Legion it's like 1955 all over again. Granted, it's Johns, so there's a certain coolness to the execution, but c'mon already. The only new element introduced since OYL, Chris Kent, was jettisoned out during the finale of Last Son.
ReplyDeleteC'mon already - those ideas were great in their time. Let's see something new though. Please don't tell me Final Crisis was just an excuse to revisit the Silver Age & all its "WTF?!?" glory.
I'll admit that I'd rather have left it where that lady from the future, inspired by Superman, was the only Superwoman. I'll give it a shot, though.
