Meet Lois Lane's New Boyfriend-of-the-Month (Superman #1 spoilers)

[stillanerd]

Courtesy of New York Daily News, here's an exclusive scene from the new Superman #1 in which Clack meets Lois' new boyfriend:




Annnnnd...I think I'll let the fail speak for itself here.  Other than to say maybe those "Superman hooks up with Wonder Woman" rumors may essentially be rooted in a "brooding and loner" Clark (ugh!) getting back at the, once again, all-too clueless Lois for "rejecting" him when she decided to shack up with an all-too obvious douchebag...who, of course, she'll end up dumping in less than a year. Way to alienate your readers and Superman fans alike here, DC.

This just feels so awkward. I mean, it's not the worst thing ever but I feel so uncomfortable reading it. Like, I'm fine with Clark and Lois just being co-workers or pals but somehow adding other romantic interests is upsetting.

I miss the marriage already :c

idk, other romantic interests might not be a terrible idea...except maybe don't code them as TANNED SHIRTLESS DOUCHEBRO ALERT?

this is just sloppy, sloppy writing.

That's it exactly. It's just uncomfortable and awkward to read. I have to wonder - who is this meant to appeal to?

And dear lord. Whoever said "Larlie Looper" called it. :P
