Look, I don't want to sound like I'm making excuses.
But I'm going to be honest.
Action Comics has been going under some major troubles recently. With both writers being under extreme pressure due to exams, and a missed deadline last week, this hasn't been the easiest issue to write. In fact, I filled myself full of sugar and water about three hours ago and sat down, and wrote this issue in one fail swoop.
Also, with the absence of DrDread as editor (also due to real life getting in the way), the direction of this book has been questionable of late (I miss you, Doc!). I'm sorry Superman has not been present over the past few months in his own book, we could have done better by you, but I believed in this storyline, so we/i persevered and tried our/my best to get it out.
Anyway, [name redacted] has had to drop out of the writing of this book, as the high profile life of a DC2 writer got in the way with his life, so it's me and Roy for the home straight after this!
I hope you enjoy the issue [when it posts later today], and I hope you take the time to read Roy Flinchum's amazing ESCAPE TO KRYPTON, a back up series he's really pushed the envelope on, and made me appreciate him both as an artist and now an amazing writer.
Anyway, hope y'all are well, I've got some last minute editing to do! If you're bored, go read Doctor Occult #1!

.) I thought that this issue was really worth the wait. The battle between Mteropolis' Fab Four and those military type people was great. It was interesting to see how Lightray was almost defeated, I din't expect that to happen. I was expecting Caesar to really kick his cocky and arrogant ass kicked, but to find out that he comes back and saves Lightray. To me that was priceless.
