On that mission to mars cover why does his formerly red-panty area look so odd? It looks differently shaded or..abnormally elongated or something :P

Hope morrison drops dead. S.hit head pretentious windbag... Anyway, people complaining supes is too skinny, get over it. The Clark Kent secret identity is enough of a suspension of disbelief without being forced to look at a dude trying to hide a juiced up body builder physique with a s.hitty suit. Besides its more impressive to see a slimer guy lift an airplane rather than the more obvious buff guy. Siegel and shuster's version wasnt very buff either.

Holy Efff he looks completly flaming on that cover and I am not talking about the Human torch kind of flaming!

That crotch shot inside the book does not help either.

So now can people that cry shorts on the outside is bad just shut up now??? the shorts are still there if you look they are just blue and a crotch emphasiser apparently

This looks like it may be a good story line. Always loved seeing Superman in space!
LOL

Am getting a Dr Who vibe from the cover alone. The Weeping Angels VS Superman is a crossover I would PAY to see!

@Pux Bats wears biuts and peices of armour. Not full body armour like Supes.

Also, this is a forum to discuss ideas, things we like, things we don't like. I'll stop talking shit about the DCnU when the stories are good.

A few are, most aren't. Superman's stories are crap... (other than the one where he rescues Krypto. I dug that one. That felt like Supes)

I haven't been impressed with Action Comics or the first 12 issues of superman, but now that Scott Lobdell and Rocafort took over Superman since issue 0 I have hope that the book can become valuable again. Of course when Scott Snyder's Man of Steel comes out that will probably take the cake.
