In B&R, Tomasi wrote a scene where Damian kills a bat with his bare hands with no evidence of remorse. Now, was Jon's animal killigs cene meant to mirror that and to show how different he is from Damian; how compassionate? I can't say for sure but considering how similar this volume of SUPERMAN is to that volume of BATMAN AND ROBIN (in this case it's Superman, not Batman, balancing being a hero while teaching his son the values of being one..by the same writer & artist, no less) it is certainly something to consider. Especially when you take into account the eternal dichotomy of light vs dark that Superman and Batman represent, it seems only fitting to carry these themes over to their respective sons.<br /><br />...or I could be full of shit and Jon just killed a cat.<br /><br />I loved this issue, by the way. Patrick Gleason, in particular, outdid himself. jacksyatteringhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01567397979563481621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8557726951171561616.post-260632147723815342016-06-15T20:49:50.789-04:002016-06-15T20:49:50.789-04:00I dunno man unless clark had some of that pink kry...I dunno man unless clark had some of that pink kryptonite when he met pete :pmikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01699095280533243432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8557726951171561616.post-63303159143918521342016-06-15T20:47:37.249-04:002016-06-15T20:47:37.249-04:00That actually had me laugh out loud eric (you know...That actually had me laugh out loud eric (you know its true because i didnt put lol) mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01699095280533243432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8557726951171561616.post-15060484862984410972016-06-15T19:24:30.284-04:002016-06-15T19:24:30.284-04:00Great review!

Ha ha, I saw the Smiths before, but when it came time to write the review I guess I just went back to what I knew from before because we've got so many damn Supermen running around I was having a hell of a time trying to make sure that everyone knew who I was talking about at any given time in this.Eric Sheahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16608213100601078621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8557726951171561616.post-53962409200702906012016-06-15T10:25:52.644-04:002016-06-15T10:25:52.644-04:00Solid issue seeing the cat deep fried does take yo...Solid issue seeing the cat deep fried does take you off guard but the girl seeing him makes me feel like she will be Jon's lana so to speak.
