I, for one, am sick and tired of the “evil Superman” stories. It is a cheap and easy plotline and it has worn out its welcome.

It played it safe in my opinion and didn’t do anything clever beyond its initial concept (which isn’t that original or clever). I thought they were going to play with the mythology more but it didn’t at all. It would have been much better had they showed the kid gradually turning evil instead of just flipping a switch in his mind. Wrestling with right and wrong would have made… Read more »
