Comic Fans want more from DC, so DC is giving back want fans wanted. Avid readers of DC Comics obviously want to read more about the superheroes prior to the new 52 characters in DCU. Thus, After the convergence comes the birth of "Superman: Lois and Clark."
The first issue of "Superman: Lois and Clark" has been recently released. So far, it is being received well. Fans is getting what they want, and DC has not disappointed them so far.
Inside Impulse says that issue #1 of "Superman: Lois and Clark" stands out as far as the graphic arts is concerned. But what everyone wants to hear if the story is great, and true enough it has a compelling story.
So what's the story of "Superman: Lois and Clark?" The series is said to integrate "the older pre-Flashpoint married Superman and his wife Lois Lane into DC Comics' New / DC You core universe."
The kick-off issue opens with a revisit of what happened of the Convergence. It also recaps on "how and why Superman came to the decision he did to shield his identity from the world including THIS world's super-heroes."
In this first release of "Superman: Lois and Clark," fans also become aware of what happened after the pre-Flashpoint Superman had to step back in time at the end of Convergence to hinder the Anti-monitor from bringing the Crisis on Infinite Earths and eventually destroy the multiverse.
IGN, on the other hand, notes the biggest and most unexpected twist in "Superman: Lois and Clark" #1, the new place that the couple found for themselves. Who would have thought that Lois and Superman would choose to live in the New 52 universe, rather than residing on Telos' own world or in old DCU?
According to the report, the first release of "Superman: Lois and Clark" explores the New 52 universe which appears "so familiar and yet so different from their own." They are also exerting so much effort just to blend in and raise their son Jonathan in a normal way. It also highlights the danger that Supes and Lois are facing.
Overall, "Superman: Lois and Clark" is off to a good start. It has very minor flaws like the expository dialogue, which is not necessary since avid readers know those facts already. The final page of comic book obviously "falls flat in that it feels so divorced from the rest of the issue that it might as well be pulled from a different comic entirely."
