Superman Returns' impact on current comics

[Michel Weisnor]

How will Superman Return's effect the monthly titles? Now, I am not talking about the raised S  :wink: but significant storyline and art direction changes. Do you see a shape up on the horizon?

*Spoilers*

















































Recent issues have brought the crystal tech from the movies to full effect in the comics (they were used before in the creation of the Amazon fortress).


In the final issue of the Up, Up, and Away story arc...Jimmy recovers the sunstone crystal and returns it to Supes. Supes then uses it to create a new Fortress which looks exactly like the movie Fortress..

Note that in "Up, Up and Away," a major element of the storyline is that Superman has been missing for a long time, then "Returns"...  Plus the heavy use of Kryptonian crystal technology (which has never really been in the comics before), Lex Luthor merging said technology with Kryptonite, a movie-like Fortress, etc.  There are a lot of elements that are very similar to the movie.

No Jason yet, though, although I doubt that's what his name would be.

I could see DC finally pulling the trigger and letting Lois and Superman finally contaminate their marriage after all these years and have a kid

Maybe that way we can get a real Superboy

... Lois and Superman finally contaminate their marriage ...

I never know whether these slip-ups on your part are intentional or accidential, but I always find them to contain many pearls of wisdom.

even when I am wrong, I am right
