Nice that batman watch over lois,when clark in space. I don't think lois needs the protection-but after what happen to sue. The thought and fear it happening to somebody else spouse makes everybody on the edge cautions.




I think this is suppose to be a tribute to that planet where pre-crisis lex was a hero and superman was the villain?

Man, are their faces going to be red when they find out what Clark does in his spare time.

Red because after Supes gets done with them, their faces will be replaced by matted sheets of gore and broken bone.

That's actually preferable to Bruce getting there first.

My thoughts exactly.

[From: mcity]

Well done.

"That's a very... interesting... proposal, Mr. Luthor. But I'm afraid Bruce Wayne already granted us an endowment. Twice what you were offering, actually. And I was asked to relay this message: 'Universities aren't for private hire, you bald, ego-maniacal, sociopathic douchebag'. I'm just reading what he wrote, sir. Honest."

Heheheheheheh. I know he's Clark's nemesis, but I love when Bruce really screws over Luthor. :D

[From: shadowvalkyrie]

Yep, and shows up Supes in the process, too. "See, Clark, this is how you deal with people like that. Heat vision? Pffft. Your anger only gives him what he wants. Try a lot of money and obnoxiously smooth manners next time."

Luxor, if I remember right. I'm sure in this he'll name it himself.

Man, I really wish I read this now--looks really cool. :)

Lexor. I'm planning on posting a Lexor story as my next contribution.

[From: superfangirl1]

Awesome! I heard about that planet beforenever seen scan of it. :)

Honest to god I think I love S/B more for its odd up and down dips in quality then for the times it is good. When this book is good (I think this arc will be one of those times) its awesome, when its bad, its crack in all senses.

[From: jcbaggee]

The last page, where Supes was thinking "Man, Lois is going to be burning when I get home!", in regards to her being angry had me laughing. What an unfortunate coincidence.

[From: mullon]

So, is Lois in Gotham, or is Batman ditching Gotham to get to Lois?

[From: icon_uk]

Yeah, that's my thought, it's not like there can't be other heroes within much more useful range.

[From: darkness_p]

He's ditching Gotham. Shocking I know. Lex has been warned by his people that he was seen in Metropolis.

[From: galateus]

He's in Metropolis, since he didn't hear Clark sonic-booming to Lois's rescue. Apparently he used the JLA teleporters offscreen.

[From: icon_uk]

I know I've said it before, but this would be a much more interesting title if it reflected the fact that Bruce hasn't been sodding Batman for about two years now. Is there any REAL reason this isn't Dick in the Batsuit? Would have been interesting to see him deal with the threat to Lois, for Clark AND Bruce's sake, and how HE might deal with Luthor.

[From: junipepper]

Yes. This. Exactly.

Okay, this has bugged me for days and I just now got back to it. (Read it at work, where I have look-but-don't-touch access through some weird server issues I try not to think about much.)

Sunset and a waning crescent moon tonight...

A waning crescent rises after midnight. How much after, depends on how much waning. I used to set my alarm clock to 4:00 am sometimes to get up to see the waning crescent because it was so rare for me. (Okay, I could see it after sunrise, but that's not nearly as cool as seeing it in the dark.)

So a "waning crescent" night at sunset is no different from a new moon at sunset--either way, it means *dark,* no moonlight to break through the clouds. (Except that overcast in big cities = more light, 'cos the city lights are reflected back.)

Dammit, I hate it when comics make "mood statements" that fail reality tests.

Issue 72? Six years? Wow, time, she doth fly.
