Ever since New 52 スーパーマン died, the スーパーマン fandom has been スプリット, 分割 between those who are overjoyed the pre-Flashpoint スーパーマン is coming back and those who actually liked N52 Superman’s stories.
I will not speak about the new スーパーマン movies. That’s another matter of debate.
For the most part, I was on the fence about New 52 Supes. There were good stories, like Superman Unchained and Superman: Doomed, but so far there was nothing on the New 52 that could be considered transcendent または groundbreaking for the Man of Steel. Superman: Truth, however, was a proverbial brick to the testicles.
Grant Morrison was a major critic of the New 52 and attempted to recreate the もっと見る lighthearted elements of スーパーマン in his Action Comics run. This seemed to be a general complaint about the New 52, which similarly featured ヒーローズ who had long been paragons of virtue made darker and もっと見る aggressive.
Even Geoff Johns admitted that making the New 52 a blank slate was a mistake in the long run and wants Rebirth to give all DC series a single, unifying voice.
In my personal opinion, I’m actually enjoying the new スーパーマン books. I’m glad to see Clark and Lois together again with a dutiful, loving son. If anything, this is a good way to appease those who criticized DC for being anti-marriage. One of the strengths of the pre-Flashpoint スーパーマン comics was that it showed the Clark/Lois marriage was better than the Clark/Lois/Superman 愛 三角形 from the Silver Age. People wanted them to finally get together, and boy did it pay off!
That スーパーマン is the one I grew up with and the one I'm seeing once again.
