I Will Own 'Superman: Secret Origin' The Minute It Hits Trade. Period.

htbthomas , you are absolutely right and I will relish every moment of the damn thing. Everything I've seen so far is make of win. They even have the CHEMISTRY down in the book. This may be the first time in a decade that I've consistently liked anything comics related for Superman (stopped reading in the late 90s for good reason).

And God knows the art doesn't hurt. There's something very familiar about the OTP over there. ;)

I'm quite partial to "Birthright" as an origin story but I'll defo get Secret Origins as a trade. I was actually quite pouty at Secret Origins despite the Chris Reeves look BECAUSE it retconned Birthright so quickly. But who am I kidding; I'd've bought it eventually. ;)

I....actually wasn't a fan of Birthright. I didn't react well to the reboot at all at the time and some changes just let me cold. Which is likely the flip-side for you. Then again, let's not talk about me and Kingdom Come. I've told you, I'm weird about my comics. XD

Ooooh, Kingdom Come. I flip-flop about that soooo much. Sometimes I hate it, sometimes I love it; I know I love, love LOVE the art. My Lois!Muse screams like bloody hell at the idea of Clark & Diana getting together but at the same time, I also dislike the idea that there's a One True Love Whose Loss = Eternal Misery and the art is SO PRETTY and Batman pretty much kicked butt and CLARK'S GRIEF WAS SO GUH but ARGH! DIANA! and--

*sigh*

In conclusion, I will probably like Secret Origins once I give it a chance because I'm easy like that. ;)

Oh God, let's not even look in the direction of my Lois!Muse. I won't be able to write for a week. She flees and sulks every time it's mentioned.

There's a lot I can't stand about Kingdom Come, a couple of things I adore, but I'm one of those types that are just evil enough to do my own spin on it and make it canon for my world. Don't say I didn't warn you. ;)

(Be warned that this is going to be a few years down the road, though.)

Don't mind me. I'm just stockpiling food for the muse. ;)

*LOL* Gotcha and I know the feeling. ;)
