SUPERMAN: DISTANT FIRES

Gil Kane didn't deserve this.

...

...

...

F

...

What is this about

...

Nuclear apocalypse, Billy getting cucked by Clark, and then everyone dying.

>kills a rat
>muh code abloo abloo

What did Chaykin mean by this?

...

...

...

How many pages is this trash going to be user?

>has a crisis about killing a rat
>pours lead into mutant humans without qualm

What DID Chaykin mean by this?

whups

64

Lois a cute!

Honestly, the first dozen or so pages are fine.

...

Oh shit this is a good one

Legacy captcha make storytiming so much easier.

OP you doing Created Equal/ Act of God? If not I can do it in like a few hours.

>this fucking cover
I'm sold already.

THICC

I wasn't planning on it, my dude, but you can bet I'll be bumping both.

...

>narration mentions flowers as tall as trees
>art just shows trees

hmn

Alright, gonna do it in like an hour or two. Was also planning to do the first arc of America but I think everyone in Sup Forums is tired of it.

...

I think someone did the entire run of America a few days ago.

With the anti-mutant so far you'd think this was a Marvel book.

...

...

these seems immoral to me
why would a modern man see as more valuable the life of a cat than the life of primitive men?

Why are 99% of the comics ship Clark and Diana shit?

but dude mutants lmao

...

Honestly, I forgot how much of this wasn't outright terrible. It's also rather slow-paced, which makes me wonder if this was intended to be a mini much like Superman at Earth's End probably was.

...

will clark and diana fuck to repopulate earth?

>Gardner complaining about normies
>sane Joker
>asshole Billy

Buckle the fuck up.

maybe

I always knew Gardnered was /r9k/ deep in his soul

Fun Fact: Son of Superman was also written by Chaykin and also features a Superman expy (J'onn) as the antagonist.

...

JUST

Because they treat them as a eugenics program instead of a ship.

Keep in mind that the apocalypse happened about two years ago based on the evidence in the narration. Billy might not even be 18.

Wow you were not kidding about the cuckoldry

Why are everyone's superpowers gone? I might be skimmed a bit because these storytimes are starting to take a toll on me.

True. That Hyperman idea from The Kingdom was retarded.

That was just the warm-up

Radiation magic.

Something Something Radiation

Also think this was before J'onn's true form had been revealed but I could be wrong about that

FUCK SUPERMAN

Where would Joker even learn to do that? Being CUUUHRAAZEEYY makes you an engineer now?

>you couldn't protect his smile

>even his own lightning cucks him

J U S T

Maybe without insanity he's a 10th-level intellect?

I may be misremembering, but I think some jokers have lab workers and chemistry factory accident as the reason for their face.

...

Wait so how old is Billy supposed to be, I thought he was just stuck in his Captain Marvel form

Why did he never transform before if he could at any time

I have multiple questions

>We were MEANT to be together.
Stop it!
I SAID STOP IT!

The answer would probably be tied up with his age in then-current Power of Shazam! comics, but I'm guessing he was older than 16 at the time of the nukes. So he's about 22 on that page.

...

Babby out of nowhere

I feel bad for Billy.

This is a all a bit Kingdom Come, isn't?

Miracleman Intensifies

MAKE EARTH GREAT AGAIN

...

Get ready because things are about to kick up a notch.

...

Okay now this shit is turning into a Saturday Morning Cartoon

Introducing the New Marvel Family!

these book needs some rape

Why is there blood on her thighs?

...

How the fuck did Cheetah and j'onn die so easy. Really?

Because got his wish

...

WHY THE FUCK DIDN'T SHE JUST FLY AWAY
SHE DIDN'T HE EVEN TRY
REEEEEEEE

...

thats one super ass

Most of these Elseworlds parallel the mainline comics of the time so how did Matrix get Kyle's battery and ring?

...

...

rape glorious rape~

>We're all gods in twiliARRGH

What did Billy mean by this?

roborape

...

Grundle of Steel

...

So, speaking of "natural disaster" stories, how was "The Final Night"?

Was Superman wrong?
Yes

Hal was GOAT in Final Night

>that ugly ass kid
This is why Clark belongs with Lois.

>his name is Bruce
>his parents are dead

P O E T R Y

no, I would prefer to die too. Some things you just dont want to survive.

And I guess the ring can guide the boy to Oa.

Ah, Jenette, you brought so much joy and so much horror into our lives.

Because nithing good comes out of ut. Its the jock/cheerleader thing.

Thanks for reading, bumping, and commenting.
Let this be a lesson on the evils of cuckoldry.

>And I guess the ring can guide the boy to Oa.
This is the 90s DCU. Oa is destroyed/a tomb world, the GLC doesn't exist, and the Guardians are dead.

This was fucking dumb

I don't think Chaykin's ever wrote anything that I liked
