    There is NOTHING to complain about :) Can't ask for a better illustrator to keep the book on schedule.
    Did Wonder Woman and Superman just catch an aircraft carrier?

    Very cool news indeed. I am curious though, it the first story arc only 4 issues since this comic has a slightly longer page count than the other books?

    Great news! Love Andy Kubert, even though I have a preference for his brother Adam(who drew my avatar)

    I'm glad that the new artist is only on for 2 months, I actually like Rags.

    I got all excited when I read the thread title. Two issues? Boooooooooo.

    Still exciting.

    Default This is news?

    Kubert loves Morrison, and Morrison loves Kubert right back.
    Love all around
    Two whole issues.

    (I personally don't care for Kubert. Every woman looks like Kwannon -from XMen- and every man like a male version of Kwannon)

    I like Rags as well but he obviously can't keep up with a regular schedule without getting sloppy and honestly you can't get a better fill in artist than Kubert. Well unless you get Williams III who I hope does some issues of Morrison's Action.
    Hobos frighten me. It's time my enemies shared my dread.

    At this point, I am actually very tempted to drop this book and wait for the collected edition. I'm not really enjoying it as much as I thought I would, the art quality dropped significantly in issue two, and I really don't prefer the Kuberts at all.

    As far as stand-in artists--can't complain about Andy (although I prefer Adam).

    The DC Source: "Issues #5 and #6 will guest star the Legion of Super-Heroes, while also laying groundwork for things to come much, much later in Superman’s story. And keep an eye out for Krypto!"
    Guess that whole "timelines are closed" was just temporary, huh?

    Unless it's just gonna be Legion Lost.

    I prefer the term Guest than Fill In and that's how I see this move.

    Sounds good. Rags isn't bad, but I like Kubert.

    Timelines are closed mow but five years ago. I imagine they might put back the catch up to current time as this version of Superman is proving more popular.
