H’EL ON EARTH: An Essay On DC’s Super Crossover
Keeping Up With the Kryptonians:
A Family Reunion?
I have cable TV. I grew up with cable TV. I watch too much cable TV. And if you watch cable TV like I watch cable TV, you know that some of the better movie channels go through cycles of playing the same shit over and over for weeks on end. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner for the eyes and ears is the same serving of Meryl Streep sullenly walking through the West Village of New York, or Bruce Willis breaking through glass windows in bare feet bellowing “yippee ka-yay”. Sure I like sitting down for a good film viewing with a bowl of popcorn and some Red Vines, but many times I watch the same movie over a matter of weeks, while getting ready for work, or maybe during the 15 minutes before the Daily Show comes on. It’s the way of our cable subscribing, ADD world.

Where’s Lara?
As frustrating as it was to hear that a third creative team would be taking over Superman in a year, I did not want to set this book down once I started reading. Scott Lobdell hit a Kryptonian home run with this issue, in which we are introduced to the New 52 Jor-El and Lara, DC’s first power couple. While everyone knows the fate of the doomed planet, this story is more about who Ma and Pa El were, as a couple, and how they dealt with adversity.

Jim Lee outdoes himself with another stellar image of the romance between Superman and Wonder Woman.
DC Comics’ twitter profile (@DCComics) released the completed variant cover to Justice League #12 this afternoon. The image depicts the Superman and Wonder Woman in an affectionate side-by-side embrace as they hover over the planet Earth. The sun in the background creates a halo over their heads of biblical proportions.
