Superman - Batman #1 - 87 + Annual (2003-2011) – GetComics

You know... halfway through issue 13, the last issue reintroducing Supergirl, I legitimately started crying. That **** was heavy and meaningful and everything I wanted from comics. Then Jeff Loeb showed me exactly why he's been revered throughout the 90s.

And why he's been despised ever since. Oh my ****ing god within a single page you just took one of the most emotional sequences I've read in all of comics and took a giant dump on it. I can't even reread this issue because I'll know what's coming and know that every brilliant emotional moment you built up meant absolutely nothing. **** you, **** your mother, but **** you most of all for having no vision.

*spoiler* But I will always remember the second death of Kara Zor-El and what it meant to Superman and how NOTHING after it existed as far as I'm concerned cause **** Jeff Loeb.
