Oh Billy, you look so small right there…
Superman’s sheer anger over Billy Batson’s situation is a sight to behold. Batman and Robin get away with it because he knows it’s the world’s best internship and that Bruce is willing to put out all the stops to protect him. But Billy? He doesn’t have anyone looking out for him. And that pisses off Superman more than anything.
Seriously, Clark’s face here
He is ready to kick the ass of whoever put this boy in this situation SO HARD
Next page he really lets the Wizard Shazam have it.
Shit, son. I might have to buy this book for those last two panels alone.
When Superman is written well he is an amazing goddamned character.
these few pages are some of my favourite in comic book history. So good. For anyone wondering what the next few pages look like, here you go:
This is a bigger deal than some of you might think, because Superman is one of the heroes in the DC Universe who keeps his secret identity pretty damn secret, because as probably the most powerful and influential person on earth, a lot of people do not wish him well – and would jump at the chance to hold people dear to him as leverage.
Yet, he trusts this poor, scared little kid. To comfort him, and entrust him with his biggest secret – just as Billy did for him.
Superman is just really important, ok?
this for people to truly understand superman
I have read this over a dozen times now, and it makes me tear up EVERY TIME.
This is my Superman. Forever.
Best. Superman.
“Superman is boring because he’s all powerful and you can’t hurt him. He’s too much of a boy scout. Superman sucks.”
Those people don’t get it. This is Superman done right.
A superman who shows compassion, who shows care for other people and has emotion. THat’s the superman I love. The one that won’t kill no matter how dangerous the foe is because all beings have the right to life. This is the superman I love.
I’ve reblogged this before, I know i’ve reblogged this before, but i’m just so emotional about superman right now….
I personally love the fact that this is superman at his most angry.
Kidnap Lois land eh whatever.
Endanger lives. I can save em.
Force a young boy to do what i do daily forcing years of growing up on a kid who not only is homeless but is attacked daily by thugs and bullies.
You have one good reason why i should not kick you old ass into the gutter.
Social Superman is so goddamned great. His depth of compassion for humans is one of his greatest traits.
And stuff like this is why I always choose Superman whenever anyone is doing one of those stupid ‘is Superman or Batman better?’ polls.
