Haha time for Superdickery!
I hate most of Gene Luen Yang's work, but I surprisingly enjoyed this.
>>84461019
Just finished reading Action Comics. Thanks for the story times OP
>>84461083
I love you too, Anonymous citizen!
>>84461065
Is this also the origin of chinese Spider-Man?
My ex was chinese gal. She raved about Shanghai a bit.
>>84461046
He looks like an Asian Nathan Drake on this cover.
>>84461118
what the fuck are you doing in China, Mariah Hill?
>>84461019
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH IT'S FINALLY FUCKING HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
IT'S HERE
She was also super defensive of the government back home.
>>84461118
She looks like she wants to fuck.
>>84461132
Doing what she always does... Playing God until heroes have to clean up her shit
>>84461149
I can't stop laughing at that last panel

>>84461127
Wait, this is the plot to Spiderman and how he got a job at the bugle.
>>84461127
I'm already loving this kid
Whenever I'm on a landing plane, I play Queen/David Bowie's "Under Pressure" to calm myself.
Hmmm...Where have I seen this before...
I'm nothing bad will come of this.
Thanks for reading!
Support the official release.
>>84461149
I like the dad.
>>84461202
Who else loves this orange costume?
>>84461212
Fucking Hell Bruce. They told you to drop that Batman Inc. shit but you didn't listen.
>>84461212
>china copies american superheroes
Amusing this hasn't been done before considering the parallels to real life and how there's hundreds of JL "clones" through the multiverse in DC and Marvel.
>>84461212
Paul Kaminski (ex-Archie editor) has potential.
Was /co/ most hyped for this out of all of the Superman spin-offs?
This isn't like how anyone from Shanghai acts but its not horrible
Stop DC. Just stop. I don't have enough money to buy all this cool shit
I liked this, but there was something "off" about it, and I can't really tell what... maybe the dialogues were a little to exposition heavy at times.
Still, I'll check it out for sure. Does this come out twice a month like the rest?

>>84461088
>he didnt get sued for helping a bystander
IMMERSION RUINED
This felt weird to me, like they just took a regular origin story and put 'of China' at the end of the names. Seems okay but I hope they explore how being a hero in China would be different than being one in America.
>>84461270
This, basically.
>>84461088
soooo... that's his dad somehow, right?
>>84461259
/co/ still seems to be more hype about Supersons.
>>84461291
Also Detective Comics #936: >>84461229
Guan Yu approves of this
>>84461237
Eh, I preferred it when they had their own original dudes. Are they still in continuity?
>>84461377
fuck you guan yu, give Wu back Jiang province

Batman/Superman 32, which was originally the first appearance of the new Super-Man sold out. This might not see as well, but if news sites start explaining that it's a first appearance it will fly off the shelves, probably getting a second print
>>84461611

Interesting how the chest shield is an octagon shape.
>>84461223
This anon loves the orange costume.
>>84461694
Just read the issue; the regular cover does not lie.
>>84461046
So that's Rois Rane?
>>84461202
I love it when they say the title during the movie
>>84461127
>that hilarious rejection
>not even casual about it just fucking laughs it off
>>84461716
The number of sides of an octagon is eight. Eight is a lucky number among the Chinese.
>>84461744

>>84461046

Massive potential for edits there.

Read the book you nigger
It litterally has your answer.
This is so cool reading an actual NEW Superman Family title. There hasn't been a new Superman spin-off in how long?
Ok, this was legit great. All the characters seem fun and Yang isn't shying away from "China's fuck up" angle. Kenan is top Husbando material. Fuck it's not even an issue in and I want him to meet American Superheroes already.
>>84462073
"New", I don't even know. Superman spin-off last we had were Superboy (RIP) and Supergirl.
>>84462096
>I want him to meet American Superheroes already.
Fuck that. I want Great Ten and August General in Irons.
>>84461166
>>84461521
It's been advertise on sites like Comic Vine, Newsrama, IGN that review comics and most folks who do reviews of Superbooks regularly will mention it. It got written up on i09 when it was just blurbed with the other Re-Birth books and they've gotten to doing a regular week round-up of DC Re-Birth titles, so the people who regularly read comics will know about it. It's not like it's going to get buried at the LCSs.
>>84462190
>It's not like it's going to get buried at the LCSs.
DC really did the right thing releasing Rebirth over four months
>>84461142

>>84461385
I assume they will show up.
>>84461196

I choose to believe this was intentional

What's that?
>>84461212
Didn't they had different on their covers?
>>84462325
The writer is Chinese. It almost certainly was
>>84461202
Are those names a reference to something?

That was fucking great.

>>84462352
Real Han Chinese, American pretending to be Chinese or fake commie Chinese occupier?
>>84461212
Well this has potential.
>>84462352
the writer is also the writer of most of the Avatar comics right?
>>84462365
Yes. New-Superman is a reference to the character Superman.
>>84462385
>>84462352
>>84462385
As far as I know he has Chinese heritage but grew up in the west. All the Chinese things in the book, he had to research on.
It's not as bad as the usual attempt to incorporate foreign elements in a comic, because I do think he tried his best to get everything right. But there are still some ridiculous shit.
Kenan meansconquer the south. Kinda funny considering recent events.
>>84461212
Is this gonna end up being a team book?
>>84462385
I don't know how your American race labels work but he's the son of Chinese immigrants
>>84461212
Was there a chinese Batman in Batman Inc.?
>>84461421
>are set to appear in this
Really?
>>84461723
IT'S FUCKING RED!
>>84461733
lol.
>>84462468
Are commie Chinese from Mars or something?
>>84462451
Yeah can't remember where I heard it (I'll try to find it) but like I said, they were in the Last Days of Superman story which also had Dr Omen in it so it's not like they were forgotten
>>84461142
Doesn't the Chinese government kill whistle blowers?
>>84462488
Do you also get confused when people say Americans are no longer British?
>>84462492
just a little bit
>>84461065
He's also kind of chubby.
>>84461157
>this lady's not my type
shit taste kid
>>84462507
Is this some sort of Taiwan butthurt?
>>84461385
They are. I assume the copy-cats is just the writer being cheeky.
>>84462419
Looks like Kenan will have to fight out the evil government controlled superheroes, for democracy.
>>84461880
You got me
>>84462628
NahHe outs the New Justice League forcing them into conflict with Flying Dragon General and the Freedom Fighters of China
>>84461888
>Everyone always tries to assign blame.
Maybe that will be a theme of the comic
>>84461951
I look forward to them.
>>84462418
>Kenan means conquer the south.
It's intentional. Writer seems to know what he's doing.
I mean look at how much thought he put in the name alone. And the costume too.

Not really problems but it's hard for people to find gems wen they're buried under the weight of big names. I think a lot of Marvels good books (Vision) suffered from the massive release as well

I like it.

Prediction: Superwoman will sell decent for the #1, then crap after that, then DC will kill her off and cancel her book and classic Superman and Lois will replace the New 52 versions in their roles/lives/jobs.
>>84463022
Solicits say she is dying.
>>84462325

>>84461127
Okay, Marvel, this is how you introduce diversity in your comics. You don't make them magically better than all the white people at half the age - you make them PEOPLE first, and you make them interesting.
Fucking Riri...
>>84463025
Also say it's an ongoing and not a mini.
>>84463365
This isn't even "diversity" though. It's just a guy who got powers. It's no different than any other book.

Fuck this shit, why can't it be equality??
Between this and Wonder Jew attacking Russians this crap seems to be out of the cold war. Diversity isn t just niggers and fags, it should be about actual different mindsets and values too, not just easy to digest american shit.
>>84463587
I bet his father really did cut corners on safety
>>84463614
It'd certainly be in keeping with Chinese business practices.
>>84463608
Democracy isn't, like, a bad thing, you know. Every political system has its flaws, but people wanting a say in their government does happen without it being 'cold war american shit'.
>>84463737
I'm not saying is a bad thing, i'm saying that a chink Superman should be teached the values that his country is supose to have and not stuff americans put value on. If Clark cares about democracy this guy should care about equality.
>>84463785
Clark cares about democracy?
>>84463801
He does, in a meme way just like most americans.
>>84461142
This man is going to die.
>>84463608
>why can't it be equality
The concept of "equality" is LITERALLY foreign to non-westerners. They don't even think it or have any concept of it. It would never even occur to them.
It's not uncommon for chinese to think their system is "democratic". It's one of those words that no one uses correctly anymore. It fits and it's probably what he would have said "if it were real".
>>84463785
>>84463801

Good thing is blue .. was boring to see a copy of the authentic batman.
Funny comic...
>>84463953
We understand equality, it's you americans that are taking overboard.
>>84463259
They apparently were a thing in China for a while, if Kenan's narration is anything to go by.
>>84464602
There's a difference between the literally definition of the word "equality" (which is literally purely mathematical) and the political buzzword called "equality" that's used in western countries.
Non-westerners may understand literal equality, but they don't have the western political concept of "equality".
>>84461924

Better than having a full comic of <>s I guess.
>>84461142
Is he seriously stupid enough to think the chinese government wont just kill him?
>>84461166
Well this clashes a bit with the fact that Kong showed up already superpowered before Superman died. But I don't care for little details like that.
God dammit normies don't really understand the concept of character development, do they? Do you want the most cookie cutter shit in your first few issues or arcs?
>>84465043

Good start by Yang though. Art was great too.
>>84463436
>>The whole comic is about knock-off Chinese copies of famous DC heroes.
ayup
at least it isn't blatant race swapping just making Chinese versions of the real super heroes
>>84465087
Explain it to me please. I'd like to have that confusion cleared up.
>>84465114
When superman was chasing that random guy who somehow absorbed some of his solar energy and thought he was Clark, the trail led to China where he and the great ten investigated a facility that ended up being the one that was making Kenan Kong into superman. A test subject wearing the same superman suit as Kong does in this book broke out and flew away. I thought that was him.
>>84462438
I think Cass was the one they sent to China so since she didn't exist in new 52 Inc, I guess there wasn't one
>>84461289
>Does this come out twice a month like the rest?
No, some of the books are monthly like this one.
This was nice. Already liking Kong and his dad.
>>84463022
They probably need to start shilling this book like Super Birds of Prey because that's actually what it seems to be with Lois, Lana, Traci and Natasha in it.
>>84465056
>doesn't like the new asshole husbando
>doesn't want Chinese Maria Hill to rape him
What is wrong with people?
>>84465239
>Explain it to me please. I'd like to have that confusion cleared up.
Read this >>84461173 page, last panel. And Yang said this on Twitter
https://twitter.com/geneluenyang/status/751952317834862592
>>84461212
>China copying super-heroes now
Okay.. that's a little racist.
>>84465239
I didn't read Yang's explanation but they do mention the fatality rate and past experiments here so that guy might have just died
>>84465389
Oh, thanks and sorry then. I can't wait to see who that first test subject turns out to be..
>>84464984
It's actually the same thing they did with Billy Batson when he was first reintroduced to the New 52
>>84465413

>God dammit normies don't really understand the concept of character development, do they?
No.

You won't get new heroes whose origins lie in their monumental fuckup as a character like Peter Parker, or who have several character flaws beyond being so in demand they don't have enough time.
Ain't nobody got time for that character development shit when you need to release the tenth issue#1 of a superhero fighting against not-Donald Trump while putting in enough panels to cause instant internet outrage.
I did enjoy the book though, looks like I'm going to have to buy it now.

This is the fucking reason people didn't like new 52 Shazam or Morrison's Action run. I actually don't remember last run where a new hero was introduced as flawed and got some character development. Honestly, fuck capeshitters.

It'd be nice if he kept having the dream even after getting powers while still failing to save his mother. Then after some major event in which he actually manages to save a lot of people including some loved ones, he has the same dream again except this time he succeeds. It'd be a nice moment in which he truly starts to see himself as a hero.

They probably work for a different branch of the government than the Ministry of Self-Reliance.
I doubt we're gonna see Mother of Champions much.

Pretty sure they do work for a different branch since they had no idea about the superman project the government had when they appeared in the last days of superman arc.
