You have a good point if it is released the same day how is it a second printing. Cover B is not a second printing. Cover C might end up having the most value out of all the printings.
It’d be such a great cover if they actually let them kiss.
Even better, if they went all Harley/Ivy eat bang kill. That’d get some attention!
As it is it’s quite lame. Wusses.
Maybe in the actual second printing when DC realizes they can make more money.
we will get 2nd prints of #2 and #5
My concern is that Jon Kent isn’t younger, closer to 11 or 12… I mean 17 to 18 years old is the incorrect age for him as he was aged up for stupid reasons… So yeah can we get 10 year old Jon again? I don’t care he’s bisexual, NO ONE SHOULD BECAUSE THAT IS NOT THE PROBLEM! THE PROBLEM IS THAT HE IS NOT 10 YEARS OLD! Don’t you all see?! This is all a smoke screen, to make us ALL forget he’s meant to be 10 years old and you’re all drinking the Kool-Aid and NOT focusing on the BIGGER issue!
Age is imaginary in the comic fictional world. In this series, clearly he’s older. Our reality doesn’t align with the stories told within the pages.
And yet he was artificially aged up for stupid reasons. Just saying… He should look like a 10 year old and actually ACT like a 10 year old. I mean doesn’t matter how GOOD this little “diversion” of a change for him is… fact remains, if Billy Batson can be 10 to 14, why can’t Jon? Because the simple fact of the matter is, it was done as a way to get Clark to reveal he’s Superman, and with ZERO thought put into it. I refuse to acknowledge stupid reasonings because they are detrimental to storytelling. Jon Kent is meant to be 10 years old and this ENTIRE argument that people have been getting into over him being bisexual, is quite literally stupid. Why? Because NO ONE has brought up the fact it’s actually damned sick for DC to pull when he’s meant to be 10 years old. If they were smart they would de-age his boyfriend to 10 years old too
His dad is also from a planet called Krypton and they can fly, bullets bounce off them… but you know, they can’t tell a story with him being obviously a bit older… that’s not logical!
Did you sign up just to stir the pot? Welcome to the forums, but tone it down, it’s all make belief and fictional. No reason to get your undies all knotted up over.
He’s not 10 because you say he’s not? Come on… spare us this nonsense!
Back on the actual topic. If you’re here to just blow hot air, this is not the time or place! First verbal warning. Thanks.
I’m spreading the truth, not to stir the pot. The bisexual argument isn’t an argument, it’s a distraction. I firmly believe if he was 10 years old, the whole “but him being bisexual is ruining Superman” argument would not be a thing. Who can be mad at this?
Seriously, the solicitation reads as if this is the future and he’s older and clearly not 10…
Jonathan Kent has experienced a lot in his young life. He’s traveled the galaxies with his Kryptonian grandfather and lived in the future with the Legion of Super-Heroes, who were intent on training him for the day his father, Clark Kent, could no longer be Superman. There is a hole in the Legion’s history that prevents Jon from knowing exactly when that will happen, but all signs point to it being very soon. It’s time for the son to wear the cape of his father and bear the symbol of hope that has told the world who Superman really is. Join writer Tom Taylor ( Nightwing , DCeased ) and artist John Timms ( Infinite Frontier ) as they usher in a whole new era for the House of El!
Time to move on… non issue, he’s not 10 in this title.
Okay, wait a minute. I’m confused now (I was misreading your other comments). Are you arguing that fact that he should be 10 and isn’t anymore?
If that’s the case, my original stance stands… Peter Parker should be like 80 years old and a bunch of the other heroes out there that have been around since forever.
He was taken to Space by Jor-El, captured by Ultraman on Earth 3, kept prisoner there for 7 years, then came back 17… And none of that has been addressed. Nothing swept under the rug
It’s an incomplete arc. It had a start, it was going somewhere, then went nowhere. All we got was
“Well he’s like this with zero resolution”
And even then NO writer seems to want to tackle JON’S side of things. There’s been MORE than enough time to actually have him react to the fact his CHILDHOOD was stolen. He was captured and put through hell by Ultraman, the fact his best friend Damien Wayne is now younger than him, all of that… It needed and STILL needs to have MORE weight than
“Clark revealed his secret identity because of it”
They’re asking me to accept an incomplete and ill thought out story arc as something that’s
“Just how it is now”
… and I’m sorry… I can’t do that until ALL of that is addressed because right now? Even with him being Superman… it’s ALL half a product.
Are you mad that Star Wars also started the movies out with episode 4 instead of 1? It’s just a story a writer is telling currently and maybe eventually DC will fill in the blanks on the past… you seem hangry though, don’t think this is something to get so bent out of shape with, want a snickers?
Only thing that will make it work, is if they retcon that he was never aged up
I’m still pretty bitter the bible doesn’t address Jesus from like the age of 5 to 33 or so… Where’s all those scriptures telling me about his life dag nabit! Someone needs to retcon the bible… so we know what little Jesus did all those years inbetween stories
DC had a good thing going with Super Sons and the Superman family dynamic, but… Bendis wanted what he wanted and got his way. And this is the story they’re telling now. C’est la vie.
That’s exactly what I was thinking. It’s a bit too convenient they both came out at virtually the same time.
This reminds me of the very old claim that Batman and Robin had a same sex relationship. I think this is a poke in the eye to those critics, living or dead.
Who’s ready for Justice League Queer (real name)
