i forget... did they ever resolve what happened? there were indications that Charlie's power's were magic based (hence why black alice could borrow them) and that implied there might have been a way to undo it...

superman was kinda a jerk here...

was this a Gail issue?

I've always thought that the main reason for Supeman's jerkiness is because it happened in Metropolis.

Projecting his guilt for not being there.

The writer for this comic was Sean McKeever. :)

hmmm sadly i loved his other stuff... this scene was... yeah, though not all of the arc was bad.... did he also write Oracle vs Joker?

No, that was Tony Bedard. I actually really liked McKeever's five issues - the resolution to the arc makes everything make sense to me.

No they never resolved the Metropolis or Charlie's story. BoP ended with Babs shipping her off with Huntress then an off note in the new run about being in foster care. Her powers are part meta part magic based. She and Black Alice are also half sisters. The father was never named.

But with the reboot, Charlie and Lori are probably Limbo bound.

Also Superman is always kind of a dick.

"She and Black Alice are also half sisters. The father was never named."

Umm, I don't think we've ever definitively heard how the two are related aside from the fact that they are somehow.

Sorry, I meant that as two different statements. My bad.
