Superman: Son of Kal-El #13

Henry Bendix in the future attacks Gotham and lures all the heroes out of hiding. So to ambush them with a poison gas attack that mix with Kryptonite and Joker toxin.

That "Very perceptive, Mr. Wayne" panel is the first time in a long time that I've read it and heard Clancy Brown speaking it in my head.

Other than that what the hell is going on

I like Jon. He's a good kid. Absolutely worthy of carrying on his parents legacy.

I would assume she's exaggerating about ALL the heroes dying. Because:

A) You don't send everybody specifically to avoid scenarios like that.

B) The DC heroes can't get all hands on deck for the gorram Sun Eater or Gotham/Metropolis/Star City getting destroyed, but Sharper Image Lex Luthor here can lure them all out?

The DC universe does jump to extremes very quickly. Currently, the death of six major heroes counts as the 'death of the justice league' when there are still dozens if not hundreds alive besides. 'All the heroes' clesrly means the important ones only.

Yeah, that's truly bugging the hell out of me. The Justice League has a MASSIVE roster. But a few members get taken out and suddenly there is no Justice League until Jonny boy makes one? Most of the members have ready replacements! Batman? Nightwing. Superman? Uh...Superman, I guess. Or what about Power Girl? Wonder Womman? Troia. Green Lantern...? We've got three or four more on the back burner. Aquaman? Aqua Lad...or Garth, if he's alive. Flash? Flash. Or Flash. Either will do...though both would be preferable.

As a DM that "So what's she going to do" is triggering me lol.

I kinda wish her vision was tied to the Dark Crisis event. Otherwise a solid debut.

Mr. Wayne? Wait, is Batman supposed to be back/alive again for this one-week-in-the-future vision? And Diana? Both foundational super-heroes returning just to be jobbed by Henry Bendix and some nameless goons?
