Ok, so in case you’re not caught up with the comics, here’s the situation.
In DC Comics New 52 relaunch, they reset a lot of things, one of which was the exposure of Superman in regards to who knows about him and who does not. Chief among these was the fact that Lois Lane does not know that Clark Kent is Superman, though at times she was suspicious.
Anyway, with the DCYou initiative, DC Comics is pushing new and bold status quos on pretty much all of their characters, and Superman is no different. Two things are soon (or are already happening) to the Man of Tomorrow. First, he’s going to become severely depowered, to the point where he doesn’t even have a majority of his powers anymore. Second, his identity is going to be exposed to the world…by Lois Lane!!!!
Oh yeah, the woman he’s supposed to marry (eventually, you know it’ll happen again) is the one who will expose Clark Kent to the world. And to help promote this, DC Comics has revealed the article that does indeed expose him. Note the type of piece this article is, and who is making an appearance via quotes.
It’s very interesting to be honest, and very on point with how our modern world (right or wrong) would react if someone like Superman actually existed. How this will play out is anyones guess, but you can’t deny this is an intriguing development.
