"Son of Superman" Chapter two!
Time to DESTROY DESTROY DESTROY
>>84293370
>DC actually marketing Red Hood
>>84293378
Rocafort is gift to comics.
The colors will fly.
>>84293458
Agreed. I love this style and whoever colors his work needs equal thanks.
>>84293475
Don't call him SUPERBOY. I wished for a more makeshift costume but it looks alright here.
>>84293475
BTFO to the guys who were expected him to be shirtless here.
>>84293544
How old is Jon supposed to be now?
DESTROYDESTROYDESTROYDESTROY
>>84293532
>burying your pet
>all smiles
Lex was right.
I had a thought today, about Jon and Clark having a fight over him needing to hide his powers from the world, ending with Jon screaming at Clark before he flies off, [/spoiler]"Why don't you just put the whole world in a bottle, Dad?"
>>84293540
He's going to be shirtless next issue anon.
Thanks for reading, folks.
Support the official release!
Batman #2: >>84293292
>>84293595
HE LOOKS LIKE OLD SCHOOL ERADICATOR!!!
HE LOOKS LIKE OLD SCHOOL ERADICATOR!!!
HE LOOKS LIKE OLD SCHOOL ERADICATOR!!!
>>84293417
I get the impression the artists would also like to draw Superman's red trunks again.
>>84293580
And this is a story how Eradicator got his glasses.
>>84293607
>wrong date
Also Batgirl #1 preview is already out, lettered.
>>84293576
9-10. he came here when the jl formed as a newborn and it's been 5 years + almost another 5
>>84293550
>that hand touch
Jesus christ. That's faster than Ollie and Dinah getting together.
>>84293659
they are kids everything moves fast especially puppy love.
so I wonder what the girl's deal is? Is she gonna end up being a robot or something
>>84293647
Actually no, it's not been that much time since the New 52 began. Real time =/= comic book time
It's been almost 6-7 years since the JL formed, but Jon is older than that. It's a timeline fuck up.
>>84293735
no dc has been pretty consistant with 1 Y real time equals 1 year comic book time
>>84293370
Seems interesting. When this is coming out?
>>84293953
July 27
>>84293498
>>84293532
Cute
>>84293595
Eradicator is back, this is not good news
>>84293961
Thanks.
how long till someone storytimes coming of the supermen. I tried reading it and my eyes started bleeding and I'm pretty sure some brain cells died
>>84293428
FUCKING OZYMANDIAS, ENOUGH WITH THE SQUIDS ALREADY!
>>84293973
I don't know, he wound up a pretty cool dude eventually, maybe this one is fast-tracked for the "not a genocidal AI anymore" character position.
>>84293633
You can tell in a lot of these action scenes, especially when its literally Classic Superman playing dress up
>>84293498
>>84293475
>That lil bit of concentration tongue poking out
Jon is already best Superboy
>>84293475
>>84293532
SUPERSHOTA suit looks cool
>>84293550
>kids holding hand
l-lewd
That was a lot more upbeat than the first issue.
So the world is aware this is a "new" Superman...makes sense, given Clark never made a big deal about hiding the fact he was different to Lana.
>>84293550
art is fantastic
>>84293466
>>84293475
>You can do this, you're my son
I love you Superdad
Shame that Gleason won't be doing the next issue but Jorge Jimenez is pretty cool too. I hope he still is the artist for Super Sons though (And that it's still going, and that they're just waiting for this arc to end so Jon can finally be Superboy. Damnit I don't want another Mystic U)
>>84293595
>Those anons who thought Superdad was actually the Eradicator
Top Kek
That was fucking great.
>Superman being calm and understanding yet also authoritative and sure of himself in a non-cocky way.
>While also being Superdad
>Jon being adorable
I-It's everything I've ever wanted. This is how Superman should be.
The thing that would make it literally perfect is if they gave him back the fucking red trunks.
>>84293595
Gleason is too good for this mediocre garbage.
>>84293595
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES
>>84294549
Put some trunks on EW52 Supes
>>84293604
>Thank you Jon, we're finally rid of that stupid cat. Now what happened to Ranger?
>>84293344
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW YYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH WE BACK IN BIDNESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>84294536
>mfw the crotch area gets covered in shadows so much because everybody hates the full blue onesie
Just give him back the trunks already
>>84294632
You're a piece of shit. Honestly kill yourself.
>>84294702
When was the last time you were happy, anon?
This book was excellent.
>father son bonding
>the issue with the cat resolved well with no melodrama
>cute kid romance
>Eradicator
>Lois Lane mailing something to Lois Lane seed for future issues
Probably the best Superman issue since Rebirth started.
>>84293735
According to Rucka WW has been around for 10 years, if we assume Justice League was formed a year into Wondy's career that means JL origin and Jon's birth happened 9 years ago.
>>84293595
>El Family
I can't wait for the next adventure of Superhombre and Superniño
>>84294863
Lois should have slapped Jon for having hidden the truth, then embraced him for having admitted it.
I'd be mad if someone burned my cat to crisps.
>>84295019
Technically the entire confession happened off panel and we only see it ended ok with a burial. Feel free to head canon that was the first reaction I guess.
>>84293550
>L. Lane
>1111 Delaney Court
>New Troy, Metropolis
>Lois Smith
>1938 Carter Court
>Hamilton County, Metropolis
Did nu52 Lois Lane send pre52 Lois Lane a package? According to wiki New Troy is the part of Metropolis that the Daily Planet office is, which is some good research and details.
Also 1938 was the year of the first Superman comic. And John Delaney reference.
>>84293738
I thought time moved slower in the DCU even if it didn't have the compressed timeline Marvel had. It creates a lot of issues if it's real time like do you realize how old that'd make Damian? His first appearance was technically back in 1987 and there was no way in hell he was 24 before the New 52 hit.
>>84293604
Jon could at least cry in this panel. Really weird.
>>84294651
They did the same thing for comics even before the New 52 to HIDE the trunks so....
>>84295194
I mean, he may have had a close tie to the cat, but as the issue said, it's Lois's pet.
>>84293730
Lex's illegitimate daughter
>>84295178
The old from 1984 was never named and is non canon thanks to Morrison being an idiot.
Damian did spend some time dead, but Geoff Johns retconed that and now he's aged 3 years to be 13 when ideally he should be a max 1 year older than Jon.
>>84295464
Still I have a hard time seeing the DCU working in real time, shouldn't Billy Batson be well into adulthood if it was?
>>84295046
Nah, Supes said Lois would understand and be proud, if she reacted like that it'd make him out to be a liar. Angsty anon can look elsewhere for his OOC crud.
>>84295521
Honestly they only apply it to characters they want it to, which is why Tim is suddenly 18 despite saying himself that he's 16 only a few months ago.
Billy actually has grow a bit from the original 10/12 years of his origin, he's going to stay 15 because any more his appeal will go.
>>84293595
BEST SUPERMAN DESIGN
>no storytime of The Coming of the Supermen
>>84293953
It's a bastardization of the "DC trinity". Red Hood, Bizarro, and some evil bitch.
>>84293359
Nice cover.
>>84293378
Variant cover is really weak.
>>84295777
It's Artemis
>>84293370
Wow, he's not like the Punisher at all
>>84293389
Why does he think his own dad would "turn him over" like that?
>>84293428
Why is there a giant fucking octopus?
>>84293508
>honey our son killed our cat, aren't you proud?
>>84295982
He knows next to nothing about his dad being "a Superman from another universe", just heard about this stuff just a couple of days/weeks ago. So for all he knows daddy likes to marry people to golliras as a witch doctor or threatens to murder people for putting pennies in their ears or even deny a whole city water for keks
>>84293466
That little faggot's heat vision is already THAT powerful?
Really good issue! Rebirth makes me to love Superman again! DC finally is doing it right!
>>84293487
>>84293498
Why is Superboy bleeding?
>>84293498
>Fuck DC, I'm drawing the trunks anyway
>>84293521
Well that's bad.
>>84293540
...
... Literally no one was expecting that.
>>84293544
So that little turd knows his secret? That's kind of retarded.
>>84293550
>Lois Lane knows about her
Well shit.
>>84296094
She did see him accidently kill that cat last issue, kinda hard to keep it a secret
>>84293566
Why is Supes getting assblasted over something like that?
>>84293595
this nigga gonna fuck shit up
>>84293633
They keep covering up his midsection in almost every panel.
>>84294702
Why did you even post this?
>>84296121
He's trying too hard to keep the Kryptonian thing a secret.
>>84293498
I want that jacket but knowing how none of those Geek Clothing Stores don't read comics, chances of it getting made by them is pretty slim.
>>84293566
So, Jon is like Deku? Awesome abilities, can still hurt himself? Neat
>>84293550
Metropolis is a state now?
Fucking what?
>>84295144
WTF? Is Metropolis a state?
>>84296252
No. It's like Brooklyn, New York
Or Highland Park, Dallas
>>84296252
it's basically New York
This was decent, but seriously nothing fucking happened. It's just random shit and thenERADICATOR!out of fucking nowhere.
>>84296278
How did I fuck up the spoiler that badly?
>>84293370
>what's the worst that could happen?
>written by Scott Lobdell
As someone's who's relatively new to comics, who the fuck is Eradicator.
>>84296408
You never heard of the Reign of the Supermen?
>>84296408
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0PlwDbSYicM
>>84294536
Fuck the red trunks. I just want the red boots back.
I also hope they drop that whole plot of him getting weaker. After God knows how long of the Nu52 superman getting depowered/killed, I'd like to see Superman at full power for a good long while.
>>84296433
After Death of Superman where there were like four Supermen running around? I know OF it, but don't know Eradicator.
>>84296496
Eradicator was one of them
>>84296504
What's his deal?
>>84296513
TL;DR ancient alien computer/robot with ties to Krypton, at one point created a Superman body for himself
>>84296551
Okay, thanks.
>>84296007
...Why not?
>>84296367
fuck I didn't even notice that
>>84293428
Where's Aquaman when you actually need him?
>>84296041
scraped knees
>>84296623
Off getting his shit in order after Manta blew up the new embassy.
>>84296633
WHY DOES SUPERBOY HAVE SCRAPED KNEES?! NIGGA HALF KRYPTONIAN!
>>84296081
Seriously you think the pedos aren't thinking that?
>>84296642
Isn't that what this issue's ending all about? It's called foreshadowing. Besides he just got his powers and it's not like being Kryptonian makes you literally invulnerable
>>84296642
He seems to have much less invulnerability compared to Superman, possibly from his mixed blood.
There goes the real reason why the originally solicited cover for this issue is now the next issue's cover.
>>84296484
depowered superman was the best part of nu52 superman tho.
>>84293475
Where the hell is supersons? I want to read about this cutie pie and Damian having the most awesome shenanigans together!
>>84297351
September
>>84297440
No longer.
>>84293344
Okay, I'd like to thank you, OP.
I was so burnt out on continuity reboots that I didn't have any interest in picking this up, but I like this. I like it a lot.
Thank you for sharing.
Is Eradicator going to try and revive Superbro?
>>84297461
Is that the longest wait for a Rebirth book?
>>84293550
>Hetshit
キモい
>>84297555
Do you come from Bizarro /co/?
>>84297483
No.
>>84296107
She was taken to the Kents/Whites during the Final Day story by Superflare.
>>84296278
A lot of things happened. Supes fight a giant squid, the family came together and the cat thing was resolved, we learn Jon has a vulnerable side, what the fuck do you want from this title?
>>84297591
No. I was just hoping forJon x Damian. Just kidding, I know that'll never happen, but they could have at least not given Jon any sort of romance. I mean, come on, he's like 11. 11 year olds don't exactly know what romance is.
>>84297749
I know a couple of kids younger than 11 that do mate.
>>84296278
There was a blue hand print at 52uper grave. Anons have been calling it ever since.
>>84297749
That part was utter cringe. It looked like it came out of some shounen or romance novel. They should've been more subtle with it.
>>84296408
A terraforming device that wanted to remake Krypton on Earth then went crazy when it tried to use super corpse as a battery and believed it was Superman then gave its life to save his.
>>84293595
And now it really is the Death and Return of Superman. We were just missing this bastard right here.
>Lex is Steel
>Superman is...Superman
>Chinese Superman is Superboy
Perfect. ...but who's Cyborg Superman?
>>84297760
This doesn't come off as entirely creepy...
>>84298033
>Chinese Superman is Superboy
I actually liked Connor, but I'll take this instead
>>84293498
>no sir
I love this
>>84298033
New52 Cyborg Superman will be in Supergirl
>>84299386
Well, yeah, but who's the Cyborg Superman in this retelling?
>alien spawn incinerates helpless family pet
>"your mother will be proud"
Lois is basically being held hostage in this situation, right?
>>84296081
Lurk more.
>>84297508
Yes. Because Berganza couldn't keep the original team on the book for reasons so it got delayed.
>>84293498
Cute! CUTE!
>>84299588
yeah they just passed over that. give lois like 2 panels
>>84293344
FUCK YOU, DUBS!
[rips your head off]
Eradicator story time is done.
>>84293532
>after a successful Super Sons caper, Damian comes home to a mansion that's empty save for Alfred and his pets
>he tells himself that it's enough
>and it ought to be
>but it isn't
>>84293730
I hope not. I just want her to be a normal farm girl that makes Damin jealous.
>>84293550
MEANWHILE!!!
>>84293498
>I just wanted to feel "Super" like you
ME FEELS
>>84293604
>Lex was right.
Shadup Lex
>>84294549
return to marvel or any other shit that supposedly're reading
>>84294399
>Superdad will never be there to reassure you when you don't trust yourself enough to do things
It hurts, bros.
>>84300898
So it's basically Tim and Connor in reverse, with Jon being the nice guy and Damien being the edgy one
>>84300858
Remember when people were shipping Kon and Rose?
Those were the simpler days.
>>84296012
>Honey, our son accidentally killed our cat while trying to save it, and he is very sorry. He is standing up and taking responsibility for his own actions, instead of cowering or blaming something other than himself. Aren't you proud?
>>84298033
Cyborg superman will be superdad
>>84302028
To who?
Does his robodong even work?
Pretty good so far. Sweet, a little too sweet, but Jon's cool, Papa Supes as well, Eradicator should be interesting.
>>84293566
>Lois's shitty human genes dilute the sweet Kryptonian essence
This is the best superman since new 52 started, my god what a differeance
>>84293344
Cool
>>84293475
Fuck I want to read supershotas NOW
>>84302824
>Not liking the modernized Earth 2 Superman that Morrison gave us
So so happy to see Superman returning to form. It's been far too long.
Keep up the great work, Gleason/Tomasi.
>>84293428

"Oh yeah, it's a total coincidence that the shadow perfectly mirrors the shape of the briefs. I'm not trying to get around that mandate at all. Nope, everything on the up-and-up here."
>>84293475
>>84293487
>>84293498
Do his jeans have some kind of self-repair?
>>84304957
Ancient Kryptonian denim technology. They self repair. Perfect for ten year old boys.
>>84297508
JLA as well. Both are either October or later.
>>84305212
Didn't even realize JLA was continuing. Have they addressed why the League added back the "of America" or even acknowledged that they did in other books?
>>84293566
he just wanted to help clark
>>84298033
Steel is coming back though. And Jon is basically Superboy.
>>84302824
>>84303410
Morrison's was amazing but tough to enjoy as well through the god awful "art."
>>84305476
The son of an invincible god has a mild concussion. Of course he's going to be freaked out and incredibly concerned. Not especially the time for manners.
What do the new Superman and Lois do for money?
>>84305928
Lois is an award winning, anonymous author who's done several book-length exposes over the past five years.

Thanks, OP.
>>84293498
This book is too fucking adorable.
>>84301809
>Clark my cat is dead
>>84307933
At least Lois and Clark know what they're in for. I can only imagine the sort of damage that he wrecked on the Kent farm, since Jon and Martha wouldn't have the faintest clue as to what was going on with their son or how to handle it.
Book of the week, best Rebirth issue so far.
>>84302148
you're mixed up friend, Supergirl's dad, he's Cyborg Superman.
>>84293595
...oh no. He's going to try to kill Jon, isn't he?
>>84308255
Oh right, now I remember.
So where is RoboSupes now?
>>84308181
The Coming of the Supermen is better.
>>84308178
To a degree anyways. Jon's powers seem wonky due to being a hybrid like what happened in this issue or how earlier versions of him (like the future in the Superboy comics from a while back) that we've seen displayed powers even Clark doesn't have.
>>84293604
Remember the Good Times, not the fact that they're gone
>>84293487
Wait is that fucking shuma?
>>84293544
something about Superman having to use burn ointment makes me smile to no ends.
>>84308255
How the fuck? What?
>>84309790
Did you not read New 52 Supergirl?
>>84309896
No.
>>84309896
>>84308255
I didnt read it either can you or anyone sum up how Hank Henshaw is her ol' dad?
https://youtu.be/JP_qF5E4w7U
>>84296685
I think the whole "literal child" thing has more to do with it.
>>84310381
It's not Hank Henshaw, who showed up elsewhere. Zor-El is a cyborg and was a "Cyborg Superman" in the New 52 for a while. Kara's going to have to deal with her dad in her new ongoing, not Hank.
>>84310458
Thanks
I guess we'll see how things play out, but right now it's not a bad time to be a Superman fan. These books/status quo show some promise.
>>84310458
Well that's retarded.
>>84298033
So far Kara's father still, but Hank Henshaw is back on the playing field thanks to Pre Flashpoint Supes.
>>84305212
I feel like JLA's gonna actually be three books.
Justice Society of America
Legion of Superheroes
Atom
>>84293508
WAIT WAIT WAIT!
SON OF MURDER?!!!!!?
>>84311569
It's just Kryptonain genes at work, same reason they all tend to be assholes in one manner or the other.
>>84293521
Is this the same Eradicator who showed up at the end of New 52 Supergirl arcs?
>>84311569
...you didn't read that issue?
Hawk swooped down and carried off the cat.
Jon freaked out and used his heat vision on the hawk, accidentally fried the cat too.
Superdad had figured it out already, that's why he was actively looking for an opportunity to teach Jonathan to fine-tune his eye-laserz.
>>84311662
We have no idea yet
>>84308178
>Martha
Speaking of. What's the bet that in 2 years time when the Rebirth thing reaches it's climax we'll get a bunch more of the pre-52 world back when Manhattan agrees to fix the world MarthaKentis brought back to life
>mfw we'll get to see Supes in tears running to hug his mother
>Jon being all bashful when he meets his Grandma for the first time
Gonna be glorious.
>>84312692
I just hope Superbro makes it out fine and isn't discarded because "not muh Superman". Would be fine if he turns out to be Kal-L or that both him and post-crisis are the real Superman due to some time/reality warping nonsense and they merge back together or some shit.
think they might have eradicator give his life up for supes which re-empowers him?
Y'know, for all the improvements that Rebirth has made to DC's heroes, everyone seems to be forgetting that the villains are basically the same shit fests they were in the New 52. So once they need to actually establish new storylines with actual antagonists the quality of DC will probably go downhill.
Thanks, OP.
>>84312692
But she would't be his Martha since Pre New 52 Martha never died.
>>84312912
What about the two Lois Lanes will they merge as well.
>>84293550
I just realized what seems odd about this relationship.
She's not Lois Lane, she's Lana Lang.
But maybe the childhood friend will win this time.
>>84314735
Yeah, totally. It seems as if whatever happened to New 52 Lois to give her Clark's powers is killing her so that could lead into it too. Just hoping something like that plays out
>>84313227
>quality of DC will probably go downhill
ok mouseketeer
>>84314686
Well from what we learned in Rebirth from Wally pre and port 52 are the same worlds with the same people just with their histories messed with. So if/when the world gets fixed they could bring back everyone who's dead now but wasn't before and give everyone their memories of pre-52 back as well. So everyone would've essentially lived 2 lives and have memories of both.
So this is the 1985-2011 Superman thrown into the new 52 universe, right? I stopped paying attention a long time ago but I know they're trying to bring back the old universe.
>>84315079
Yes. and the pre-52 Lois.
>>84315079
They came to the current universe via shenanigans after Convergence. Zero Hour Parallax also came.
They're not trying to get home, and according to Wally, this is the same universe, just altered by who we assume is Dr. Manhattan.
They've just been trying to raise their son and save people in secret, but they've dropped that.
>>84315216
Anon's probably referring to DC, which is correct. Rebirth is closer in aesthetics to pre-flashpoint, in terms of costume design. As well as the retcons with Atom, Blue Beetle, the JSA, and the Legion of Superheroes.
>>84315295
True, I just wanted to address that at no point have they tried to get back to where they came from.
>>84300616
Why must you hurt me, anon?
>>84295521
You could just say that all the time/reality warping events (Zero Hour, New 52) rewound his age so Billy would consistently get younger after aging, plus doesn't turning into Captain Marvel make him not age?
>>84295613
And why Animal Man's kids never grew up. If you assume the JLA started in the 70's in their 20's it's not too far fetched. Diana and Supes don't age like humans, Barry was stuck in the Speedforce so he didn't age, Hal was dead. It's only a real problem for normal people like Batman/Green Arrow, etc.
>>84316247
Even then, wouldn't it be easier to just ignore those inconsistencies and just say the DCU's sense of time is slower then ours? Is there anything out there that proves everyone has been active for well over 30 years since CoIE?
