	So where is this set? Is it in Skartaris? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I don't believe it's Skartaris. I think it's some new 'magic world' that they've invented for the Superman titles. If I follow the plot so far, what's happening is that General Sam Lane, in his crusade to wipe out all of the Kryptonians, has made a deal with an evil Witch Queen from this magic world...in return for the use of Captain Atom as an anti-magic WMD.

	Huh. That's weird. You'd think, given that DC has a genuine swords-and-sorcery setup easily at hand, they'd take advantage of it a bit more. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I wonder what writer thought "Hey, we've got a conflict spearheaded by General Lane, General Zod, Lex Luthor, Superman, Brainiac plus a few dozen B-listers. You know what we need? A completely new magical realm that we have to introduce, flesh out and develop before everything comes to a boil!"

...how do Superman readers and writers keep track of things without a score card?

	These are superhero comics. Readers are the score cards. (Reply to this) (Parent)
