Answer: "There was no less war, death and conflict with you in charge, because you were killing anyone who opposed you. Organizing it all into one big conflict rather than many little ones, doesn't lessen the total, it just shifts it around."
Oh come on, Lois can NOT defeat two brutes all by herself. That's not "girl power", that's simply stupid. Not everyone is a fighter nor does she have to . A Karen Page style reveal she had a weapon with her? Sure. But this Iron Fist shenanigans? I call bollocks on that.
Taking a pair of likely minimally trained bruisers who underestimated her by surprise? Yeah, I actually buy that. Lois is a military brat and it's been shown that she's had some martial arts training. Travelling in the circles she does, it's hardly a stetch to believe that Lois in this continuity was trained by Bruce, Dick, Richard Dragon or any of a host of other characters in self-defense. Lois has been shown many times in comics since the 70s to be able to defend herself against non-powered assailants.
I mean, if she was shown going toe-to-toe with a skilled fighter for more than a few seconds, sure. But sucker-punching two mooks? Yeah, I totally buy that.
THANK YOU, if batman was less of a dick and more understanding, this could have gone at least a little differently. Can Harley apologize next for killing his wife and born child and METROPOLIS?
Oh, the Injustice Comic is still going? Haven't seen much lately beyond the MotU crossover.
This raises a question I've been wondering about, but never thought to ask, though: Does Lois have a canonical hair color? She seems to fluctuate more than most big-name characters. Is it black? Red? Does she just dye it sometimes?
Black (or very dark brown) tends to be the default. She did spend a lot of the eighties and nineties as a dark red, then edged back towards black / dark brown.
(Thinking in this case the artist was basing her on Amy Adams.)

Bottom line: If slash, feminism or anti-oppressive practice makes you react negatively, scans_daily is probably not for you.
