And yeah, young Supes really wound up screwing poor Mon over, didn't he!x-man75https://www.blogger.com/profile/10292719455945603075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8091466292216433701.post-6647774553162291692010-05-26T15:56:28.773-04:002010-05-26T15:56:28.773-04:00I'm not if Mon-El's deal is the same post-...I'm not if Mon-El's deal is the same post-Crisis, but pre-Crisis the whole lead poisoning thing is actually Superman's fault, which I thought that was pretty interesting. In fact, I'd be pretty pissed off at Superman if I were him.<br /><br />Ha, I'll see what I can do about the Bruce Wayne comic. I take it the second reading didn't go much better than the first!Marchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10558378521891430225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8091466292216433701.post-48328019264023943502010-05-26T14:38:36.133-04:002010-05-26T14:38:36.133-04:00I've read a few things about Mon before he too...I've read a few things about Mon before he took over the Superman title(he was in the first few issues of the awesome LEGION title), and I've always liked him, which is why I'm sad to see him head back to the future. I think James did the best he could with what he had, although the Mon-El storyline ended very abruptly. I guess with Superman #600 on the horizon, DC wanted Big Blue back in his title for #600.<br /><br />I just finished my first draft of the Return of Bruce Wayne comic, and I should have it up for tomorrow. I am DYING to hear your thoughts on it Marc, because if anybody can translate Grant's writing to me, I think you're the man to do it! :-)x-man75https://www.blogger.com/profile/10292719455945603075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8091466292216433701.post-44051929270333503242010-05-26T13:46:42.400-04:002010-05-26T13:46:42.400-04:00I didn't really know who Mon-El was until yest...I didn't really know who Mon-El was until yesterday, when I read his first appearance in the first Legion of Super Heroes Archives collection. He seems like a really interesting character, and I'm looking forward to reading more about him. I think the cyclical nature of the character which you talked about in your review is really cool.<br /><br />I'm going to try and read Return of Bruce Wayne #1 later today, so I should be able to comment on your review. Hopefully it won't be as bad on your second read as you initially thought!Marchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10558378521891430225noreply@blogger.com
