Superman: World of New Krypton #2
Hmm...I wasn;t planning on reading this series originally but it caught my eye in my LCS and decided I'd give it a shot. The first issue was a bit blah since it was set up but this issue with Super- err I mean Commander El on his first day working as part of New Krypton's... Military guild i think it was? Caught my eye while skimming and I picked it up. Especially since we get a nice look into the mind of some of the New Kryptonians.

Two pages from the issue to show some fun.

Basically Kal and company are sent out to stop a Thought-Beast stampede, they can attack you psychically and show you your worst fears or dissapointments from what I can tell. Most of the group just want to kill them but Kal being our farmboy proposes just tricking them into a new spot (a pitfall the group makes). Yep he teaches them to cattle drive.

I love how HUMAN their fears and dissapointments are. Don't miss the top part with Kal being forced to see his dad die again as well as Non remebering when he and his daughter were still together ( I think she was killed at some previous point). It's also a nice thing to see that while they're all Kryptonian only he's Superman the onee taking charge.

And they use their heat visions to scare the Alpha male of the group and thus the rest to follow into their new area.

Twas a fun issue. Lots of fun stuff in it to my surprise. Definitely worth picking up.

	Cosmo, the Supercat Streaky. He was a normal Earth cat till exposed to "X-Kryptonite". You're probably thinking of Comet, who was a centaur turned horse and given superpowers by Circe. He turned into a human when a comet passeed by and fell into love with Supergirl when in human form. Really. (Reply to this) (Parent)
