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.

Huh, I wasn't aware of that defect in screen readers.

I'm not sure it's necessarily a defect. People use bold and italic for a lot of things other than emphasis - headers, movie titles, links, quotations, etc etc - and I can see the sense in deciding that losing the emphasis use (which isn't common in "formal" writing, after all, italics in a news column or a grad thesis will always mean something other than "emphasize this") is less detrimental to understanding than adding emphasis in all kinds of random places.

(I still use the <i> tag for certain types of italicization for that very reason.)
