Superman Day 2025
For Superman Day, here’s the cover to one of my favorite Superman stories, penned by Paul Kupperberg towards the end of the pre-Crisis era. In a single issue, Kupperberg summarizes everything that matters about the Man of Steel…with nary a villain in sight. Gorgeous stuff. I highly recommend reading it. It’s a deceptively simple tale with a powerful message that really gets to the core of the Man

"I’ve been a fan of this series for over a decade now, and this one is no exception. Every story felt very distinct but still in the same universe. You could tell exactly whose POV you were in. Now having finished it, I’m wanting even MORE backstory. "

question:
Well, part of it might have been that when I wrote that book about a dead baby, I was a new father! So I was writing about that tragedy while my little daughter slept in a bassinet next to me. It made it very raw and real for me.

“You won't even know you've crossed the line until it's way back in your rearview mirror.”

“See, forgiveness doesn't happen all at once. It's not an event -- it's a process. Forgiveness happens while you're asleep, while you're dreaming, while you're inline at the coffee shop, while you're showering, eating, farting, jerking off. It happens in the back of your mind, and then one day you realize that you don't hate the person anymore, that your anger has gone away somewhere. And you understand. You've forgiven them. You don't know how or why. It sneaked up on you. It happened in the small spaces between thoughts and in the seconds between ideas and blinks. That's where forgiveness happens. Because anger and hatred, when left unfed, bleed away like air from a punctured tire, over time and days and years. Forgiveness is stealth. At least, that's what I hope.”

“This is why I forgive, but I don't forget. When you forget someone, the forgiveness doesn't mean anything anymore.”
