A splash page from Superman #688

So what do you guys think of this scene? My view of it was that Mitch was hitting on Mon-El Jon, what with the "strapping fellow" comment and him telling Jon not to be a stranger. The awkward use of ... I forget the word, but it's like "positive adjectives" would be foreshadowing if it were a guy and a girl. James Robinson's been pretty LGBT friendly from what I've seen in Starman, so this wouldn't surprise me.

This book is pretty neat. Is anyone else here picking it up? I LOVE Renato Guedes' art so much, and the writing is picking up.

I dunno, "splash" is a logical thought given how very obviously Mitch is hitting on Mon-El here.
