We told you it was likely that today’s Batman/Superman #32 would be giving us an origin for Kenji Kenan, the New Super-Man launching in DC Rebirth. As well as why he may be a very appealing character indeed.

Well, as we suggested, the “SuperFriends” were indeed off to China, following a Superman doppelganger energy signature.

And they bump into some old “friends” who we haven’t seen in a while. Since the New 52 reboot, August General In Iron was briefly in Justice League International, but that was about it.

And after the inevitable mistaken fight/teaming up trope, they all follow said energy signature back to its source.

And we get to see a new figure… and an understanding how he was formed from Superman…

And why he is different to other members of the children of The Mother Of Champions, who now given birth to ten super soldiers every three days…..

…..rather than the Pre-52 twenty-five. A slip-up? Or something to reflect the Great Ten? Anyway, we get to see the fellow for the first time…

But what about that energy signature doppelganger? and what about the new Superwoman?

Could they be linked at all???

[size=32]COMICS: Forget Nazi Captain America, You Won't Believe What Happened To Superman This Week[/size]

There's been so much of a focus on Captain America and DC Rebirth this week that the Man of Steel's shocking new status quo has been largely ignored, so hit the jump for the SPOILER filled details...

Chances are that the New 52 Superman isn't even the real Man of Steel (you can find more on that theory by clicking here), but the original DC Universe's Superman is going to take over the role regardless. He'll be joined by a different version of Lois Lane and his son, so chances are that the younger Clark Kent won't be missed, but let us know your thoughts on Superman' death below...

Definitivamente estamos volviendo a las raices. Es genial como Tomasi plantea este preludio a lo que se viene dandonos a Clark, al Superman que conocemos todos, con el corazón y y los sentimientos que siempre lo destacaron.

El número es un emotivo adiós al Superman New 52. Y un sabor amargo con la revelación de que "aparentemente" no puede volver a la vida porque en este mundo "oscuro" del Doc Manhattan no existe la Regeneration Matrix que hizo posible que Clark volviera luego de la pelea con Doomsday. Me encantó Manke en el arte, le sentó perfecto.

Me quedé con ese sabor a que estamos por primera vez en 6 años bien encaminados y que Supes está en buenas manos.

Por otro lado, la última hoja "promete" un Reign of Supermen algo diferente. Y me parece que por ese lado va a venir la mano, cuan diferente pueden darse los hechos ante la muerte del Superman de New52 con los que conocemos nosotros del Superman Pre Flashpoint?
