Oh, Lois.
Everytime I looked at scans of Action Comics here, there was always one thing on my mind. When the heck is Lois Lane finally going to kick some ass? I didn't get exactly what I was looking for.

Clearly, some shit has gone down. Sadly, that shit was probably not Lois bringing her father to his senses through sheer awesomeness.

If forced to guess, I would suppose that Lois got caught taking pictures of some government scandal. Not exactly unusual material. But I remain hopeful for Lois to show off her kick-assedness.

	Who wears a wedding ring on their right hand? And pinky? If it's not on your ring finger, it's not a wedding ring. It's just a normal ring. And yes, Lois isn't wearing one. Le gasp. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Who wears a wedding ring on their right hand?

Wedding rings go on right hand, ring finger.

Engagement rings on on left hand, ring finger.

But seriously, I wonder whether Lois takes her wedding ring off for work purposes (she does get into dangerous stuff, some journalists don't want people to know anything about their personal life) or whether Lois would stoically wear her ring.

	"But seriously, I wonder whether Lois takes her wedding ring off for work purposes (she does get into dangerous stuff, some journalists don't want people to know anything about their personal life)" That would be my guess too. Or the artist didn't think of it. I doubt it means anything for Clark/Lois. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I have never seen a wedding ring on the right hand. I wear mine on the left. I've seen most women wear their engagement and wedding rings on the same finger. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	is that the cover for 883. Because if they actually give Lane the authority to just arrest people... we had plenty of time for stories like this and plenty of accusations of it actually happening during W's tenure as pres. That's enough. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Cat just had her botox injection and can't move her face. She's actually screaming in outrage. (Or alternatively, the evil mind-control device inside her that Supergirl spotted (and we all thought Kara was talking about her breast implants) has finally taken command.) (Reply to this) (Parent)

	You're forgetting - there's no such thing as "mean" or "ambiguous" at DC. There is only "capital G Good" and "capital E Evil." (Unless you're Batman. But he doesn't count, because he's mean to his friends, not his enemies.) (Reply to this) (Parent)

	bluejaybirdie 2009-09-09 01:03 am UTC (link)
	Maybe she got arrested for aiding a Kyptonian (ie Superman)? Either way, her face is looking majorly scary right now. Something with the eyes... (Reply to this)

	Everyone in the Universe must be well aware of Lois's relationship with Superman, professional or otherwise. If Kal-El suddenly (and stupidly. Way to go Didio) became public enemy number one, that explains this. (Reply to this)

But really is anyone surprised by this? Considering Sam Lane is now being played by a Skrull (yes, I know DC has no skrulls, but that's the only explanation I can think of). And after all the stuff Lane has ordered (Zor-El's murder, inter-galactic war, etc.) the only way I can see this storyline ending is with him dead - again. Certainly once his plans are foiled (and they will be in the end) Robinson and Rucka have made him such a card-board villain that I don't think he'll be coming back ala Luthor.

And I hate Cat Grant's smug grin there. I hate what they've done to her too. Remember when Cat was friends with Lois and Clark (heck, she even dated Clark). I do (it wasn't THAT long ago) - but I don't think the current writers seem to.

"Everytime I looked at scans of Action Comics here, there was always one thing on my mind. When the heck is Lois Lane finally going to kick some ass? I didn't get exactly what I was looking for."

There's always a chance for some good kickassery from Ms. Lane. Why, has she not been used right? I'm just starting to catch up with Johns' run, and from what I've read we haven't really seen much of her.
