New Krypton

Krypton comes back. Then it blows up again. Then the universe got rebooted.

It was enjoyable enough. the ending is a little rushed bc I think nu52 was coming but I enjoyed it.

>>90406388
Eh, it's alright, lots of wasted potential tho. The ending can go get fucked with a rusty pipe for all I care.

It ended with Superman deciding to walk across America because he'd lost his way

It was pretty fun to hype while it was happening, but as stated the ending wasn't great. I was pretty disappointed at the time the way it panned out. Felt like certain things that were seeded (Daxam's involvement probably being the biggest one) never panned out. Overall it was interesting to see modern portrayals of Kryptonian culture and shit though. Might read better now than it did back then.

There was like a year or two between the ending and the new 52. Not sure why they rushed it besides wanting JMS on the main book and he wanted to do his own thing.

yeah they rushed it for JMS I would guess.

lol

Also now realizing this post is way too redundantly phrased

Probably worth it for the sales gamble at least even though he was so shitty. During NK the books were basically 20-30ks, which isn't awful for DC back then but not great.

I liked Clark teaching those kriptonian cops how to fight well with their powers rather than depending on them alone.

I'd be down for storytiming grounded during the day tomorrow if peeps would read

Events and crossovers are shit unless proven otherwise. More so for Superman ones.

Really cool premise, lots of promise, is actually really interesting at first.

But then Superman leaves Earth and it all goes to fucking shit. It meanders for like the better part of a year in three separate books, then wraps everything up in the most perfunctory and unsatisfying way possible.

It honestly might be the biggest missed opportunity in modern Superman comics.

>johns leaves midway
>Rucka leaves midway
>Dc makes them rap it up very quickly in 5 weeks to just get it over with

Yep, sounds like it would be pretty good at the beginning but disappoint everyone in the end

How would you have ended it /co/?
Where would the Super books be afterwards?

Something like this..
JMS finishes the superwalk.
They bring back Chris Kent.
Waid is allowed to reprise his GOAT run.

>>90409560
Oh Christ, hang on. The ending pissed me off so much I actually wrote an alternate treatment that picked up with Kandor leaving Earth.

Basically Superman and Supergirl would split up and each of their ongoings would show the two separate sides of the conflict, Superman on Earth and Supergirl on Krypton.

I put it in a pastebin since it's longer than I remembered.

It had so much fucking potential. At the time, it was probably the most exciting shakeup in the Superman status quo in years. The fact that no one ever talks about it anymore should tell you something.

Comics in a nutshell

Zod going ha ha moustache twirl went wrong. Yeah he started that way but NK made him more than that and it just fell down like a house of cards, his nuances went out the window. Kinda like Lex' presidency. personally I would have just kept NK as a permanent location in the DCU, just move it away from Earth. Make it like Rao finally gets fed up and takes his people for a time out somewhere.

It had a lot of potential and didn't really live up to it but was/is still pretty enjoyable to read.

I honestly don't remember how it ended I just remember NK blowing up and being really confused on how it blew up, I think I might have skipped a few issues on accident.
