Those first few issues were iffy, but as things went on I thought it got exponentially better, and finished overall pretty strong. This is probably the best Superman story I've ever read? It might be recency bias, and I'd need to go back and look over the stuff we read for Superman week, but it's definitely at the very top of an admittedly small list as most of the Superman I've read has been through this topic.

I feel like it wouldn't be a Grant Morrison story if we didn't have something that was mentioned briefly in one moment become extremely important or prevalent in another. I really like how he calls back to small things he mentions earlier in the arc, making nearly every single piece of dialog or exposition incredibly important for the story.

As I've already mentioned, this is also my favourite Clark Kent. He's the literal opposite of Superman (as Lex explains), and I feel like that works so much better than other renditions of the character where he is seemingly Superman in a suit with glasses on.

Also, I'm not sure how much times passes between issues, but I'm assuming it's a decent amount considering we had two issues of Lois questioning Superman's identity then it's essentially never brought up again.

120 packs

Free Hir'eek, the Bat
Halazzi, the Lynx
Golden Gonk, the Raptor
Shirvallah, the Tiger
Oondasta
Griftah

Seems like a very below average Legendary haul here. I've gotten at least 7 in all of the previous expansions in which I've opened roughly this many packs. I'm 5 packs away from the pity timer though, so I'll have another one soon.

Oondasta seems like the only card that is probably a must-have out of the bunch.

Shudderwock is probably my least favourite card in Standard. That deck isn't as annoying as the normal list, but any world where a deck featuring the card is tier 1 isn't great.

Looks like we have our Nylander casualty as Leivo has been traded to the Canucks for an AHL guy. He spent multiple years sitting in the press box then got traded as soon as he was given the opportunity to play.

Long term, I would have liked to see Leivo over Ennis at the bottom of the lineup, but he'll be an RFA and the money needs to go elsewhere.

Through the first 3 issues now. I wouldn't say #2 and #3 were as bad as I expected them to be based on what MI was saying, but it seems weird that these would be considered the best Lois Lane stories.

Admittedly, I haven't read that much Lois Lane, but her characterization here seems kind of...off? That's the best way I would explain it. I don't know if I've ever seen her as paranoid about Superman as she was in that second issue, and I find it kind of annoying that she still questions the Clark Kent thing two issues into her being told.

I'm enjoying the issues, though. Like I said, it just seems off.

Clinched a playoff spot in two of my leagues, and the third comes down to Golden Tate. If he gets 10 or less points tonight, I'm in. Anything more than that and I'll be 8-5 and somehow not in the playoffs.

So in one of my fantasy hockey leagues I'll be 52-4-4 after this week, which is pretty insane. I've never seen domination quite like this in any fantasy league that tracks categories as individual wins.

Brady just knelt forward a yard and made sure to tell the ref what he did so he wouldn't go back down to 999 rushing yards.

Good win.
