Superman is great right now. I do have to say i thought the Zero Hour issues were fantastic to finish out the Valor series.

i had no idea! i'm staring really hard trying ot read it, i'm usually pretty good at sight-translating it but...
help?
It was shown awhile ago that the book of OA is interlac. (which I honestly find weird) The other type is the other "new" laws. There was a clearer shot of the book somewhere, but it's not a surprise - it's exactly what the other three laws are, which the Guardians spelled out as they did the fouth one here. This isn't word for word, but the other laws are: - lethal force is sanctioned against member of the Sinestro Corps - lethal force is sanctioned against all enemies of the GLC - romantic relations within the GLC are forbidden
So, I imagine the left hand page in the image reads: (I'm filling in the blanks where there are brackets)
"[lethal force again]st the [sinestro corps] has be[en] authorized"
"[lethal fo]rce has be[en authorize]d against all [enemies] of the green [lantern corp]s"

Valor was still better than whatever Mon-El is today, even though current version is good too.

I'm not so sure. I really did like the Valor series but it seemed pretty directionless until the build up to Zero Hour. There was quite a bit of construction of a mythos going on and I was eager to see where it might go but Glorith and the Legion took over the series. That's not actually a complaint, mind you, I loved it but it concluded the series and come to think of it concluded the entire DC reboot. The last half dozen issues were wonderful.

I may agree that it was a bit directionless, but character building was much stronger then. Now, it seems all pretty rushed, as most scripts these days seem to be (action-oriented). I think he was more fully conceived by Bob Fleming (and Kurt Busiek) than now.

I'm loving Mon-El and Tellus in Superman, the guardian not so much.
also maybe not DCU 'proper' but Landry Walker has posted concept sketches of Brainiac 5 online had he appeared in Supergirl:Cosmic Adventures in the 8th grade. (Why he didn't is mentioned there although he was mentioned and Supergirl wore her Legion ring and belt from issue 3)Also some Streaky the Super-Cat

Legion, specifically Karate Kid gets a mention in Wednesday's comics, the Teen Titan strip.
It say KK in a brainwashed state had taken on the Trident costume.
Did this really happen? I must have missed that story.
This would be the first reference in Wednesday's comics to traditional DC Universe, at least that I've noticed.

This happened in Justive League 1-4 & 7, in the run up to the Lightning Saga

Why in the world would the Wednesday Comics Teen Titans strip mention that KK was disguised as Trident? How did that even come up??
