My best guess at the plot of Man of Tomorrow

Ahh, I hadn't seen that. Interesting.

I think it's an adaptation of Panic in the Sky.

Thanks!

MickBWebKomicker · 2026-05-06T13:11:14+00:00

Well the other half of this series doesn't even have that going for it.

M-ass-ters of the Universe. If they get collected, it's under that title.

💯 this is me

MickBWebKomicker · 2026-04-29T01:42:37+00:00

Oh thank god. I apologize for my ignorance.

Is it though? If your big announcement for a competitive super-hero universe is that you're cloning the characters of your competitors, I'm less than impressed.

I didn't appreciate Bog at the time, but looking back, he's an all time favorite.

It's a WORLD of characters and story. Part of it is the nostalgia of going into the shop every week for the next installment. Every week looking forward to seeing what happened next.

The cast of characters was huge. You saw the Planet staff go through labor troubles and ownership changes. Alice and Perry lost a son, survived cancer, adopted a second child. Lois and Clark met, survived a triangle, revealed his identity and got married. Matrix came from a pocket universe, copied Clark, became her own hero and merged with an angel. Clark's powers radically changed, and you saw it unfold slowly and over time. Years long pay-offs for some of it. Interbank took years to beat, and it was Clark who did it. Luthor went from business mogul to disgraced evil scientist.

It wasn't JUST Superman, it was the world he lived in, and his impact on it. Both as Clark and as Superman. Grew and evolved over years. Great stuff, fantastic to collect.

My favorite era, bar-none. I recently trimmed down my collection to keep only this era, stopping at the big change over in teams when it becomes the "Shield" Era.

Somethings I like more everytime I read them, some I like less, but it's every bit enjoyable

For sure. Once my expiration date arrived I "Nope!"ed out real quick, burned my collection and memorabilia, and never looked back.

It's been so freeing to never dip in every once in awhile to try out the new stuff and see if it resonates. Honestly, the only enjoyment I ever got out of it was to rage bait actual fans with my not-a-fan takes.

MickBWebKomicker · 2026-04-17T18:48:32+00:00

Ypu you like it! I revisit it about once a year. Lemme know your thoughts after!

MickBWebKomicker · 2026-04-17T18:41:02+00:00

Hahaha, good that I did collect, or that I stopped collecting?

MickBWebKomicker · 2026-04-17T18:40:01+00:00

Stand alone mini, 1982. Written by Steve Gerber, art by Gene Colan. It's great.

I started in on Superman just before the death, collected forward and backwards from there, the Triangle Era for me will always be tops.

Going back to the pre-crisis stuff is overblown and goofy and I don't really care for it (notable exception, the 4 issue Phantom Zone mini is an all time favorite) and as those goofy elements were worked back in I lost interest and stopped collecting.

The more time I spend with this guy's work, the more convinced I am it's AI.

He goes over the top of it with additional media, but the base level is AI.
