So how depowered is this Superman?
Apparently he just flies around, punches things semi-hard, and fires lazors.
Does he have ANY of the auxilliary superpowers like Hearing, X-Ray Vision, Superspeed, Super-intellect and the rest, or is he just conveniently forgetting them for this story?

They ignore facets of his powerset so regularly that I can never tell when he's actually been de-powered or just Super-jobbing.

People were guessing it was going to be Black way back when the solicits were released for this arc

So now DC gets to retell all the same villain stories, but with Mom-Lois and Superson endangerment for extra pathos and drama.

Superman is reduced to "Oh Noes" for the entire issue. Will he ever be competent again?

He literally said multiple times that he couldn't sense Jon anywhere using his powers. And Manchester Black has the ability to mess with people's perceptions. Also "Super-intellect" hasn't been a thing since the 60s. You sound like someone who's never actually read a Superman book before (and barely read this one).

You'll recall that I ASKED if he had all these powers, or what powers DOES he have, rather than making presumptions.
Some shit-for-brains asserted that he hasn't had them since the 60's, when he had them in his very last incarnation.

I'm not up on Rebirth Superman, and as I've said, Superman (like most DC Superheroes) has a sliding power-level depending on the writer's whims and story needs.

I wondered if he had been reduced in power like the Byrne years, or if he's simply "as strong as the story requires" or if his powers have been temporarily fucked.

Of course it's bullshit. And it's where Superman will almost certainly be in about a year. Just like Flash and WW and the rest, Supes will power-creep up to planet-busting levels just in time for the next cosmic baddie. Always happens.

How? Especially when Manchester Black is a Professor X level psychic whose powers have worked on Superman before.
>>
>>92455872
Ok, he's in a town where there are monsters spontaneously popping up all over the place.
Yet he just leaves Lois hanging around in the vicinity. Since she's a peril magnet, getting her to relative safety would be a thing, but I don't know how fast Superman flies anymore.

Does he have a plan for finding Superson that doesn't involve checking everyone's closets? Because he should have been able to scan that little town with his senses and know right off that he's not there. But again I don't know if he has all those senses or if the writer is ignoring them for the millionth time. Even if his senses are being spoofed by MB, to Superman that would still read as a "he ain't here."

Thirdly, wondering why he honestly gives a fuck about gigantic Kaiju crustaceans on the rampage. Does Superman not eat lobster out of some moralfaggotry? I was under the impression that he ate cow pretty regularly. So why does he give a single fuck about big ass Lobsters? This whole "WE MUST NOT HARM THE MONSTERS" bit seems a bit out of left field, particularly since they are trying to kill people.

>>92455932
Well, first I have to wonder why you thought it was a good idea to start reading a story at chapter 4 when you clearly have no idea what's going on. Hamilton is the town that they've been living in since the beginning of this Superman run. All the craziness going on just started a short time ago (like minutes ago) within the story. Superman literally says on the first page that he's using his super-senses to look for Jon and can't find him, so clearly the writer isn't ignoring those powers, it's just you skipping over text bubbles. But Superman also knows that the people trapped in pods and suddenly appearing monsters are somehow connected to Jon's disappearance, so he's not just going to fly off and start searching Metropolis or China. Lois also wants to find Jon, so she wouldn't let Superman "fly her out of harm's way" and he knows that. Also Superman valuing all life is in no way out of left field if you'd actually been reading the book. Him teaching Jon to avoid killing whenever possible, even giant monsters, has been a consistent theme of this entire run.
>>
>>92456078
or its a fake leg

>>92456053
>>92456140
(You)
>>92456125
>>
>>92455932
>We must not harm the monsters

It's a combination of him wanting the monsters alive because he values all life (he keeps a zoo of monsters at the fortress of solitude), wants to study them to find out what the hell they are and where they came from, and for all he knows the monsters could be sapient.
>>
>>92455238
OH SHIT
>>
>>92456344
>Lois also wants to find Jon, so she wouldn't let Superman "fly her out of harm's way"
Anything capable of keeping Superson against his will is vastly beyond Lois' ability to help with, or is she hiding a secret set of superpowers?
>>
>>92456542
>vastly beyond Lois' ability to help with,

Earlier in this series she put on a powered bat-suit and used it to kick the Eradicator's ass. You severely underestimate Lois' abilities when it comes to protecting her son.

She doesn't carry one in her purse I take it?
Sure, if she has a magic potion that gives her Superman powers, she could be of use, but that clearly does not seem to be the case.

>>92456800
Well, she kept the gauntlet from it, but it got smashed in this issue. The point is Lois will find a way to protect her son, powers or no powers, leg or no leg. And she'll be badass as fuck while doing it.

This is just the third Superman/Manchester Black confront ever and the guy is almost Black Manta level of pettiness.
>>
>>92458378

You don't want to bully Jon?
>>
What is black main motivation anyway, could somebody explain to me ?
From what I know, he is not psychotic mad and evil like some other villains, and while he's one of the enemy of superman, he did actually hate superman and even has some level of respect of him, why is he trying to mess up with superman ? What's is his motivation ?
>>
>>92455230
That floating glasses thing is weird.
>>
>>92455178
Bump for later.
>>
>>92458551
His motivation is that he's salty about losing to Superman in an argument once about the level of brutality heroes should enforce.
>>
>>92455246
That's how you get your ass kicked by Superman.
>>
>>92455390
OH FUCK!
>>
>>92458569
it's a 2-panel to show quickness/reflexes that he's able to grab the glasses in midair
>>
>>92455346
>>92455356
... this gets undone, right?
>>
>>92458378

He's not torturing him.

He's making him a better hero.
>>
>>92455178
OK cover.
>>
>>92455373

More like Manchester the Molester.

Regular cover is better.

Thanks, OP.
>>
>>92458642
Damian: (after somehow breaking out of the capsule and crawling his way to the Superman v Superboy fight) Jon, you...idiot. Don't let this psychic hooligan turn you...turn you...into...me.
>>
>>92458551
Manchester argued that it would be better if heroes killed supervillains and monsters to keep people safe while Superman argues that being a hero is not just about keeping people safe but also about inspiring them to be better and to paint an image of how the world should be. Manchester has regularly tried to make Superman out to be the bad guy to the point of fabricating scenarios to prove his point like he is doing here to convert Jon.
>>
>>92458382
Jon is missing Lois would have ended up there anyway and he couldn't leave her behind either.
>>
>>92458711
Lois gonna kick him in two with her Chrome Leg.
>>
>>92458711

It's pretty hard to turn someone to your side when you make a scenario that ends up getting your target's Mom's leg cut off.
>>
>>92455318
>>92455329
>>92455334
I feel like this is the dumbest reveal.
>>92455616
So stupidly one note.
>>
>>92455336
MUH
>>
>>92458628
see the poster above, she's standing with flesh colored legs in action comics (which takes place after this arc). although we don't know for sure if it gets retconned or real or prosthetic
>>
>>92458731
Jon doesn't know he set the monsters loose, he's probably telling him that if Superman hadn't tried to go non lethal his mom would have a leg.
>>
>>92455517
Out of curiosity what bothers you about it, anon?
>>
>>92455390
I hope supes finally shoves his boot up this cunt's ass
>>
>>92458579
>he's salty about losing to Superman in an argument once about the level of brutality heroes should enforce.
People like to hype up that story, but in the end Superman doesn't even win the argument. He just beats them up because he's Superman and they can't do shit to him.
>>
>>92458810
>He just beats them up because he's Superman and they can't do shit to him.
Pretty much, they go "might is right" and superman goes "Well then let me just kick your asses and show you that if I wanted to I could kill you in a few minutes, hey I guess that makes me right according to you"
>>
>>92455238
>>92455246
FUCK that looks so good, looks like lava is flowing out of his eyes.. damn
>>
>>92455390
Creepy.
Curious if he is resorting to all this tech because they chose not to retcon his psychic abilities being removed by Superman.
Can't wait to see how the antagonist of the story most known for challenging Superman's style of saving the day gets put down after trying to corrupt best son.
I also wonder how many people are going to take the gritty bait of this issue like they did when people swore Krypto had been killed when he was swallowed by the Eradicator in the first arc.
>>
>>92458853
>Curious if he is resorting to all this tech because they chose not to retcon his psychic abilities being removed by Superman.
Didn't he have access to alien tech in his introduction because his team managed to snag a ship in one of their adventures?
>>
>>92458829
>"might is right"
Superman technically proves them right, the argument boils down to them duking it out and Supes being right because he wins, and the story doesn't even acknowledge it happening.
>>
>>92458731

Jon doesn't know Black manipulated the situation, yet. He's still processing that his Mother just got her fucking leg cut off in front of him.
>>
>>92458853
>I also wonder how many people are going to take the gritty bait of this issue like they did when people swore Krypto had been killed when he was swallowed by the Eradicator in the first arc.

Eh Manchester Black's thing is bringing grit to any story he's in, he's the edgy antihero calling for more anti-heroes.
>>
>>92455390
Billy Butcher!?
>>
>>92458865
He did. Thought the ship wasn't terribly unlike the one The Authority had. Also seem to recall Superman having convinced the AI of the ship to help him and stand up against Black and the Elites in the end though.
>>
>>92458713
If she had gotten there later, she wouldn't have had a leg injury.
>>
>>92458879
Oh, I know, which is why I dismissed it as bait though. I can already expect anons who don't like Superman or Tomasi holding up the shot of Lois losing her leg when people describe the book as comfy.
>>
>>92455390
Goddamn, yes.
>>
>>92458894
But she couldn't be left anywhere else because he doesn't know whom else to trust.
>>
>>92458757
Doesn't really fit the optimistic tone of Rebirth to do something as grim as "Lois loses her leg anyway even after Superman seared it back on (ignore the junk science)."
>>
>>92458928
meh, i'll probably just wait for the next issues to know for sure. who knows, maybe frankenstein attaches it back
>>
>>92458963
Yea once they bust them out of the tubes.
>>
>>92458711
So basically, black doesn't exactly hate superman, but he wants to prove that his "justice and heroic way is "right and let Superman to acknowledge and accept his ideas so much to a point of obsession and villainy
>>
>>92458905
There are already anons here in this thread saying the story is shit because "Superman is able to read fast, therefore he should know where Jon is".

Just ignore the type.
>>

Terrific page.

>So basically, black doesn't exactly hate superman
He sure as hell hates him. "Ending Battle" is all about it.

Manchester is the ultimate Warren Ellis character.
>>
>>92458986
He is essentially Superman's Red Hood/Jason Todd.
>>
>>92459043
Superman Unleashed is a scary thing.
>>
>>92459068
Ending Battle was a straight up "If you kill me, I win" Joker plot though.
>>
>>92459045
Honestly Im glad Tomasi is writing a black that still has an interest in edgy superheroics. In ending battle he went from antihero to complete villanous maniac bent on getting revenge on supes, it was too much.

No he definitely hates Superman, had he not hated Superman he would have just moved on with his life instead of repeatedly targeting him and trying to drag his name through the mud.

He telepathically tortured his wife and revealed his identity to several villains. He really freaking hates superman.
>>
>>92455521
He's not the Flash.
As far as I know, Supes can't carry people at inhuman speed without inertia killing them.
>>
>>92459298
All writers usually just gloss over that.

Manchester?

If you want her dead, sure.

Clark doesn't have fucking speed force, he can only carry normal people so fast.

Yep, it's Manchester.

Lois' going to become a badass cyborg pirate, isn't she?
>>
>>92459298
Nah, he can, it's tactile telekinetic forcefields, I don't have to explain shit.
>>
>>92459500
Precisely what I thought. I'm really hoping this is all a figment meant to push Jon and it will all be revealed to have not been happening since Bruce disappeared.
>>
>>92459568
You ought to check out the last page of this weeks Super Sons to discover why you don't want that.

I feel like the real question is can Superman be more effective without going full Superfascist?
>>
>>92459045
But Superman is the only cape Warren Ellis DOES like.
>>
>>92455390
I wonder if they changed his union jack tattoo to a buckle belt just because a shirtless man holding a child hostage would had made this page rise more flags that it already does.

He never was you meme spouting moron. Superbro and Superdad both don't kill.
>>
>>92455390
Oh SHIT. Fuck I'm excited.
>>
>>92458986
He hates him like Regime Supes hates Batman. He hates that Superman won't accept his worldview and now that he keeps getting in his way it just infuriates him all the more.
>>
>>92463757
Nicely done

>>92455732

Never post these as proof of anything again. We groaned when it came out and no writer has used it since.

>>
>>92455346
I hope she dies
>>
>>92458874
Yeah but he doesn't kill them.

Superman isn't opposed to punching supervillains, he just doesn't think they deserve to die. they might turn around. Major Disaster used to be important because he WAS a Superman villain who rehabilitated, I think Clark needs one of those again.
>>
>>92455353
Seriously go the fuck back to /tv/ and stay there you fuck.
>>
>>92455390
He grew up to be Billy Butcher

Superman should be fucking worried
>>
>>92457555
Just ask Injustice 2 what happens when Superman does what Manchester wants him to do.
>>
>>92455256
>>92455267

AND THEN SUDDENLY HE WAS REVERSE FLASHHHHHHH

Dude.. Don't do that.
>>
>>92455390

Hell yeah! /co/ called that shit! And I'm glad too because I really like Manchester, because he's based on the Authority (even if he doesn't really make sense in that regard because he was based on meme-tier understanding of the Authority). Regardless though, it's pretty cool that they brought him back and they're doing something with him.

Plus they alluded to this somewhere else, there was a comic with a big montage of Supe's villains and he was in there. That's when I knew /co/ was right about it's speculation. They wouldn't randomly through him in there like that.
>>
>>92472569
I recall it was theorized back when the arc was originally solicited, since it was originally called Superman Black, and a solicit mentioned Jon questioning what "Truth, Justice, and the American Way" was.
>>
>>92455390
BOOOOORRRRINNNNGGGGG
>>
>>92455390
Also, didn't he off himself?

>>92472330

Could Manchester be interested in making Jon a "better superman" because he knows what's coming with Doomsday Clock?
>>
>>92455346
Oh shit not Lois
>>92469681
For what reason?
>>
>>92455423
Can you repeat the question?

>>92455401

Holy shit these actually look amazing
>>
>>92464590
>But Superman is the only cape Warren Ellis DOES like.
Which doesn't mean that HIS characters would like Superman. Ennis is also a Superman fan and his works sure as hell don't show it.

Besides, every British comic writer is a Superman fanboy for some reason.
>>
>>92465356
I find funny how Regime sup prove that balck is kind of right.
Of course killing all the time and in all the situation is wrong, but there are people who just aren't going to change.People
like the joker and Zsasz is never going to turn good, and like the extreme religious or political terrorist we have in real life,
they are not or is vary vary hard to turn good and love

>>
>>92475571
Then how was it captured on a video screen?
And how could Clark cauterize the wound?
>>
>>92475743

he's just putting the images in people's minds. Clark only thinks that he cauterized the wounds, Jon only thinks he;s seeing shit in the TV.

Nah I think the wounds and Supes cauterizing it are real.
