Does anyone else think Superman's attitude towards Lex here is a little OOC? I mean, they used to be friends when they were kids and in Grant Morrison's JLA run Superman said that "there's a good man in there somewhere."

The issue also introduces a new character, Simon Valentine, who will apparently be Superboy's "greatest friend-- and his greatest enemy." Even before that line he reminded me a little bit of a young Lex Luthor. It'll be interesting to see what happens with him.

Also, this was on DC's main page.

	This might be a little off topic, but am I the only one who thinks this book would be the perfect place to bring Chloe Sullivan into the DCU? I mean, she could have almost the exact same role she has in the earlier seasons of Smallville, just with Kon instead of Clark. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Interesting notion, the only problem with it that I can see being that Chloe was already more of a Lois Lane than their Lois Lane was, and I don't necessarily want to see Kon have to deal with EVERYTHING that Clark did. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She could be Kon's English teacher, rather than a classmate . . . (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Which would make any romantic pangs (a la Clark/Chloe) rather... icky. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Actually though, Chloe wasn't always the Lois Lane figure, she once developed the ability to heal people and after she lost those powers she became a (unqualified)therapist for people who develop strange powers. That could be an interesting plot point for this series. Then there was also the time she played 'Watchtower' for Ollie Queens JLA and was good friends with Oliver and as I remember SV Bart had a thing for Chloe even though she was years older than him.
