Superman Returns Superman Returns Prequel Comic #4 Clears Up Some Issues About Lois Lane and Jason

[Kane]

Now this comic was written by Singer, Mike Doughety and Dan Harris to explain the timeline (history) of the film.

However it raises some interesting points.

The issue makes it clear that Lois believed that Richard WAS the father of Jason.

Lois also did not appear pregnant prior to meeting Richard and said "Oh Richard, why'd I let you do this to me" as she was giving birth.

I wonder if Superman is really the father or something happened to Lois' body in the FOS that would cause her to produce a child with partial Kryptonian genetics?

It also officially confirms 5 years passed since Superman's disapearance which makes Jason 4 (close to 5).

I really think Singer and DC left this paternity question open ended to gauge the fan responses before revealing the true outcome.....

But I think theres more to this than we initially believed...

 

[Thunder Emperor]

which is a rather stupid idea.

which is a rather stupid idea.

Yeah, let a million of us make up our ****ing mind instead of writing a good ****ing plot for the child of Superman that didn't make SII a vague history... why not own up to the Donner vision instead of making everyone crossed eyed from trying to figure it out.

Whaever...

edit:

I didn't even buy the comic (or go to the comic shop) because I went to see the movie again. I'm still going to get that damn comic because I'm Superman fan but this **** really pisses me off. LOL...should have went to the shop first though

The novel isnt supposed to be accurate, its just an adaption by Wolfman.

The prequel comics are 100% canon.

Read it for yourself...its all there.

Like in the case of the Star Wars cartoon (the most recent one), when you need extra material for pivotal characters and plot points, you need to fire your writers and get a solid script.

Intriguing. Jason Lane huh? I dunno if anyone else has mentioned this, but does this make little Jason's Kryptonian name Jay-El (JL)?

But even the Topps trading cards says his name is Jason Lane .


I'll do that .

What did it say in the ending credits of the film? Jason Lane or Jason White?

Keep in mind the film is the most recent cut of the story while the Topps card reflected the story months ago when they were still cutting stuff out and doing revisions.

 

[The Caped Knight]

I thought I saw Jason Lane

 

[Kane]

I'll have to see it again to be sure....or ask Boyscout, he saw it like 300 times.

They could always say it was because of a kryptonian/human birth that maybe she didn't know or appear pregnant until months after...I know that is a stretch but it would also make people not call Lois a "****" (Although I never saw her as one anyways) since it would have been months before she moved on with Richard.

Ya. The comic did make it seem like significant time had passed while she was growing closer and closer to Richard...but she didnt appear pregnant in all that time and it was never stated she was.

And then a long while later, shes giving birth but says "oh Richard, whyd I let you do this to me"....implied Richard impregnated her..


Very curious indeed.

Something tells me we dont know everything and theres a major twist coming for the next one involving the truth about Jason...

If so that pisses me off. Big time. Way to make a big deal out of something (Superman having a son) and then just betray the entire idea. I wasn't a fan of the Superkid idea to begin with, but to do that is just ******ed.

For what it's worth, I think it is Supe's kid and it'll stay that way.

 

[Spidergurl4302]

But we were made to believe this in the movie too. Lois truely believed Jason was Richard's son. Like most have probably said it could be due to the memory kiss in Superman II or maybe too much time passed for her to think it was Superman's without knowing the complications a Kryptonian/Human pregnancy would cause. It has never been done so Singer and co. can kind of come up with any twist or situation they want.

Are you sure this is acturate info,{and it's not just planeted their to fool you into thinking Jason isn't sups kid ?}

Because the movie clearly tell's you dead on even before he displayed his powers, that Jason is Sups kid .

 

[Kane]

I dont have an explanation. Im sure they have some but I just deliever the facts, we can speculate and assume all we want but we wont know for some time....

But this prequel comic makes it clear exactly how the Lois/Richard thing happened and the timeline of Jason's birth. It doesnt jive with Superman's departure or a 9 month pregnancy.

Hopefully we'll get hints to the truth behind Jason from the writers and Singer before the next film.....

But I think we all may be jumping the gun on what Jason really is and his true purpose/future.

Accurate info? Its in the comic, see for yourself.

And it was written by the SR writers and Singer as official cannon to bridge the gaps leading into SR.

This comic was also slated for release after the film's premiere, so there would be no logic in trying to fool people anymore.

 

[The Caped Knight]

All I'm saying is their better not mess up Lois & Superman's relationship before they get back together . Their DESTINED to be together .

It's clear as daylight that Jason is Sups son . And in no way is he richard's kid.
For crynight loud LEX fliping Luthor knows The Kid is sups .

He thought, though since Jason didnt react to Kryptonite....I dont know if Lex continued to believe that.


But Im sure theyll resolve this is the best way possible, one way or the other....

But its too soon to speculate. Theres more going on here than we know.

I trust the men in charge, they delievered a stellar film.

jason did so react to the kryptonite, you saw him get weaker and the kryptonite glowed green when it was near jason. even in the novel it said jason stared to look more sick that before as the kryptonite came closer to him .

 

[Poetic Chaos]

1) They had sex when he was depowered so one would think any offspring would be normal.

2) Lois doesn't even remember having sex with Clark/Superman thanks to the super-kiss at the end of II, so really she should be all kinds of confused.

3) For either Lois or Richard to believe Supes wasn't the father means she must've been knocked up not even 3 months after his departure. Didn't take her much time to get over him, huh?

It said in the novel adaption.. but on screen, there was no reaction to it. He looked the same.

Part of that could be his human/kryptonian DNA mix, he could be not effected by it.

 

[Regex_1]

I was not big on the whole superkid, but they might as well go with it now.

I dont know if any of this is true.

But as far as the sex thing. Being depowered doing mean his actual Kryptonian DNA was changed.....his genetic reproductive material would still be the same. He wasnt genetically mutated into a human.....

 

[The Caped Knight]

The kryptonite glowed green around jason their was a reaction. Jason showed a reaction to the Kryptonite . just like Sups did on New krypton .
