Phil
Jimenez “Superwoman Volume 1: Who Killed Superwoman?” (DC Comics, 2017)
There’s an argument to be made that of all the ways that
long standing characters were ill-treated in the Nu52, none had it worse than
Lois Lane. Without a doubt Lois has been
the number one or two female character for decades. And she was treated rather
poorly…
So here we are with rebirth, where Lois is turned into
Superwoman! Only oh no! She’s more or less immediately killed off. WTF DC.
The good news is that Lana Lang now has superpowers! It’s
not that I’m particularly invested in Lana, but I appreciate their working with
legacy characters are trying some new things.
Unfortunately it’s only partially successful.
It’s worth checking out, but far from one of the top tier DC
titles.
Thanks to NetGalley and DC Comics for a review copy.
