There is too much gold on this team.

My god the shoulder pads.

That’s a missed President Lex Special right there.

Adam Strange’s 00s costume update is among the better ones. Also here a member of REBELS. Love Kal referencing Ralph as well as Bruce. Incidentally, Ralph & Sue solving mysteries in a perfectly logical manner in the world of the fantastic is how I’d pitch an ongoing for them.

I hope Ordway did include some of the then current DC staff in this.

Take two on Bizarro line: “Bizarro leave you in one piece.”

Solid Matter Eater Lad reveal.

Faulty memory is remembering Mon-El getting this costume six issues earlier.

I really like how Rucka and Robinson took having a Captain Atom backup, no idea if it was their choice or not, and wove it into the New Krypton arc.

Lois Lane taking the Hunter S Thompson approach to journalism.

This Krypty just making up slurs.

This back up in Adventure Comics 4 might be my favorite post-Lo3W story and unfortunately it doesn’t lead to much of anything.

Blok despite being one of the youngest Legionnaires is still often the most insightful.

Definitely have all three of those issues.

“Sir? Here at Metropolis Science Museum we have five batmobiles and a Thanagarian cruiser. Are you sure you’re most interested in The Bug?” Nods vigorously.

Red Robin is a terrible name and so-so costume. It was regressive when Dick bore it in Kingdom Come and needed to be called anything else for it to work in modern day stories.

Lois, Cat was also President Lex’s press secretary, so it’s not like this is the worst she’s ever done.

Let’s just destroy Tottleben’s inking with digital coloring it was never meant to go with.

I have no one except myself to blame for rereading the worst recoloring work of all time.

Like mixing matter and anti-matter, you just can’t do it Captain.
