So Clark's just going to report on Superman stopping satellites falling to Earth and stuff like that? How is that "crusading journalism?" I doubt that Clark is that narcissistic just to write about himself all of the time. You miss the point, too. I'm talking about using Clark's job as a reporter as an entry point into stories. It's not that hard of an idea to follow. a)Perry White sends Clark out to cover a story. b)Story evolves into something that requires Superman to intervene. Example: Clark covers a political rally. Rally comes under attack by super-villian. Job for Superman ensues. Or: a)Clark is investigating a corrupt businessman. b)Corrupt businessman hires costumed hitman to wipe out Clark. c) Hitman attacks Clark. d)Clark becomes Superman and stops costumed hitman. e) Clark/Supes figures out how to connect corrupt businessman to costumed hitman, goes after corrupt businessman as Supes. It's making Clark's job more central to the plot of the story. |

Hey, it works for Peter Parker ![]() We saw in this very issue that Clark made the story not about Superman, but about the people aboard the satellite, it was called 'Unsung Heroes' or something like that. And as I said, it's been one issue of this series, Snyder very well may use Clark's blog as a tool to start stories, he may not. It's just the same as working for the Daily Planet, sometimes it was crucial, at others not. In this issue, Superman was only Clark for 2 pages or so. You're acting ridiculous, you only want Superman stories that fit into your narrow viewpoint, and you want them to do your ideas exactly. |

Only because J. Jonah Jameson pays for the photos.
It's still Clark's reporting being more reactive than proactive.
Only DailyPlanet.com probably is read more than Clark's blog. . Nieto hack your account there? Besides, I'm the only poster around here that accusation can be used on, right? Actually I want stories where Clark's reporting is more central to the story than just being ancillary to it. Not all the time. Just more than once in a blue moon. That should happen more often with three Superman books out. It just seems funny that writers only want to use Clark when it comes to his personal life as a break between the action, and not as a way to move the plot forward. |

IT'S BEEN ONE ISSUE OF SNYDER'S RUN, GIVE HIM A FUCKING CHANCE. |

Where did you get counterfeiting coins from what I said? All I said was "melt gold". And it IS a commodity. One which, like everybody ELSE in this country, he could SELL. For money. Which IS legal tender. For that matter, Jesus Christ, Nac. You can accept the reality of a fucking space alien who looks so identical to humanity as to pass unnoticed among us, possessing powers and abilities far beyond those of mortal men... But the idea that this alien might manage to monetize his blog is where you draw the line? ![]() And as Punchy said, it's issue one. Maybe give it a couple of issues before we start declaring the sky to have fallen.... |

I took it as you meant that Supes was melting the gold to change it into a more suitable form, such as gold bars or coins with the purpose of exchanging it for money or products. At least one of those actions (possible both) could fall under the category of counterfeiting. . As for gold bars...

Jesus, guys. Gold bars? Do you know how idiotic you all sound? Is Nac the only person who's done his research on why Superman wouldn't rely on precious metal resale as his primary source of income? |

|

Perhaps you should switch to watching The Newsroom? |

|

|

I'm sure Will McAvoy never has to convert Spanish gold into a more widely accepted currency to pay his rent! |

Episode 5. Wasn't the best, wasn't the worst... |
||
|
||
|
||
But we all know for sure that New 52 Superman is part of the worst generation of Americans. Period. |
||
|
||
|
||
Now where the heck did you come up with that idea? I just said I'd like to see a story once in a while that develops from Clark actually doing out and covering a story for the Planet or his blog or whatever. Which, by the way used to happen. |
