June 18, 2013: Ultimate "Man of Steel" Easter Eggs and References Guide
Jeffrey Taylor has published an article at Movies.com highlighting all the "Easter Eggs" and references that Superman fans and comic book fans might have missed in "Man of Steel".
- Steve Lombard became a Daily Planet sports writer after the 1970s editorial shift at DC Comics. He's something of a jerk in the comics, which may be easier to see in the inevitable sequel. He was mostly absent from Superman stories for years after the 1986 comic book reboot, but returned just a few years ago.
Major Carrie Ferris who said "I just think he's kinda hot," is Carol Ferris, the love interest of Hal Jordan as Green Lantern (played by Blake Lively in the recent Green Lantern movie) and she became the villain Star Sapphire in those comics.
Father Leone was the character's name that Clark spoke to in the church while deciding whether to turn himself in to authorities. A character with the same name was used while Superman was having some emotional troubles in the famous "For Tomorrow" story by Brian Azzarello and Jim Lee in Superman (vol. 2) #204-215 around 2003.
Ken Braverman was one of the bullies giving Clark a hard time in a flashback in front of Sullivan's Tractors. Kenny Braverman was from the comics in 1994-1995 who was a childhood friend of Clark, but always came in second in athletic and school events, which angered his abusive father. He became the villain Conduit and had a hard time killing Clark Kent, only to discover his dual identity and attacking his family, friends and fiancée Lois Lane.

June 17, 2013: Update on "Man of Steel" Box Office Success
BoxOffice.com reports that "Man of Steel" broke through the $200 Million point on its opening weekend.
- Revised figures from Warner Brothers indicate that Man of Steel broke the $200 million mark over the weekend. The North American debut for the Superman reboot exceeded expectations by taking in $128.7 million, up from Sunday's $125 million estimate.
The overseas grosses also came in higher than originally reported. New figures from Warner Brothers point to a $73.3 million debut for Man of Steel outside of North America. The Superman reboot grossed $202.1 million worldwide in its opening weekend.
Additionally, Reuters reports that "Man of Steel" has broken the record for the biggest June opening ever.
- "Today is a big day for us," said Warner Bros' president of theatrical distribution Dan Fellman, noting the film's record opening. He added that "Man of Steel" was now well-poised to reap big box office "in the heart of the summer play time."
The studio was also pleased by 56 percent male, 44 percent female audience, which Fellman said bodes well being a higher-female makeup that was usual for superhero-centred pictures.
"The film is playing extremely well for fan boys as well as the family," he said.

Mild Mannered Reviews - Superboy #21
Scheduled to arrive in stores: June 12, 2013Cover date: August 2013
"State of Decay"
Writer: Justin Jordan
Penciller: R.B. Silva & Edgar Salazar
Inker: Rob Lean & Denis Frietas
Cover: Ken Lashley with Matt Yackey
Reviewed by: Adam Dechanel
- A great tale, a bit odd to have Krypto arrive/hunt for Superboy for no reason and the overall reveal was rather predictable but as a whole the story was a very enjoyable one that ups the ante for the Blood & Steel storyline. I have never read any Dr. Psycho stories past but I'll admit he's a fun addition to the cast. The throne was a real odd moment by the way...
