	Superman on New Krypton dealing with his native culture and its many flaws = epic win. Chris, Thara, and Mon carrying on his legacy on Earth = epic win General Lane cosplaying Marvel's Dark Reign = epic fail. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Pretty much. Lane has been the worst part of this storyline, which has been good otherwise. (Reply to this) (Parent)

Despite the lame way they took the Supers out of the picture (and still no mention of Conner's return in the main books?), my major quibble is with Mon-El's names. The general public doesn't know the "House of El", so why use the 'Mon-El' name in Metropolis? And why 'Jonathan Kent', when a variation of Lar Gand like Larry Gandy or somesuch would do just as well without making a connection to the Kent Family that is supposedly maintaining at least two secret identities already?

	He had a secret ID in the past called Bob Cobb. The writers probably had the same reaction as me (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That's the one he used when the Legion was hiding from Mordru! Bob's people were responsible, I believe, for the salad, and my own neighboring Cobb County! (Reply to this) (Parent)
