Superman comic question...

[Mandi-chan]

Is Lois dead or something?

I was reading "Teen Titans:Life and Death" and noticed that in several panels Raven could hear someone's frantic cries for "Lois". It was heard a couple of times I think, and she also heard someone's worried thoughts about their wife (who I assumed was also "Lois").

Later on, at the end of the book, some of the supers are confronting the big bad (Alex?) and I believe it was Donna Troy who asked what happened to Lois and Superman?

So...what happened?

And why were there two Supermen at the end mourning the death of our Superboy?

That whole book was so confusing!

That Lois was Earth-1 Lois. She died in Infinite Crisis. The other, older, Superman was the Superman from Earth-1.

Earth-2, not Earth-1

Dammit. I can't say a single thing about the multiverse without getting disconbobulated. Sorry. Yeah, Earth-2.

Really, it'd make more sense for that universe to be Earth-1, since it came first and all. But that's just me nitpicking.

No, she's not.
