Doomsday Will Reign? What will this mean for Superman and the DC Universe?

News, Top Story

There are few more ominous symbols to come out of DC in the past twenty years as the one that they posted on their official blog today.

Few images remind readers that, yes, even Superman can die.

And with a title like “Doomsday Will Reign!” the kid in me that ate up the Death of Superman when it happened is getting giddy. I mean, what can this mean? Is Dan Jurgens going to write it? In our recent interview with him, Dan teased some good stuff coming up, but no specifics. For the love of God, let Dan Jurgens write this!

Despite his strong start and immediate impact, Doomsday has….not really amounted to much of anything since he beat the Man of Steel to his apparent death. This needs to change, I mean, look at Bane, he was created to break the Batman, and he’s one of the stars of Secret Six. Not saying Doomsday needs a book, but a little love given to the Armageddon Creature is much needed and very long overdue.
