You have been named the next Superman writer after Bendis, what do you do?

Literally what I came here to say.

Superman learns how to do a kamehameha

I'd wanna do a Superman detective story. He's a reporter, but that's mostly just used as fluff nowadays. Why not give Superman a problem that only Clark Kent can solve.

Make Jon a kid again.
Make Clark and Lois less shitty parents.
Make Lois less insane.

This. Then give Action Comics to Tom King.
So we have Comfyman and Actionman

Even Batman hasn't been a legit detective in a long time, what makes you think Superman will? Let's be real, detective stories require actual intelligence, and most comic book writers just don't have the brains for it.

>Heroes with their own agency willingly sacrifice their own lives to win in a hopeless situation.
>If they happen to wear the S, it's actively Superman's fault when they die
Okay, man.

Make Jon a bisexual slut who has sex with both Demian and Starfire
Have Lex Luthor raise Nuclear Man from the death and kill, not fucking eat Rogol Zaar and Naomi alive

More stuff like Superman vs the Elite. I like grimdark battle-centric Superman... it is called "action comics" after all.

I would actively shit on his work with retcons, contradictions and direct insults to his family. Mickey Bendis will be an in universe joke about dead Lex Luthor body doubles. Naomi and Riri Bendis would be a black whores who sucks off bald white guys for crack.

christ, you just reminded me he already learned vegeta's final flash move in the Romita JR run a little while ago

>The Timebeast of Zurenaar is an entity that hails from the homeworld of Rogal Zaar and was the secret reason his world was destroyed, an attempt to kill it.
>The beast comes to Metropolis and when Superman, Jon, Kara and Kon-El team up, they're joined by the Legion to battle it.
>The fight shatters open time and space in their battle, freeing Powergirl and her black PG replacement from the vortex they were stuck in, and they join in as well
>One by one they're beaten and slain, and then Jon, using his training from Jor-El, defeats it with a supernova. He has won, but Metropolis is ruined and his family slaughtered.
>The Legion reveals to him that, although his family has perished, this is the day he becomes the greatest hero in history, and the world enjoys prosperity for a thousand years.
>But Jon is heartbroken, and feeling for him, Brainiac 5 informs him that the Timebeast's power could, in theory, be harnessed to take him back to the start, before his journey with Jor-El. His rapid aging and journey would be undone, and his family restored to as they were before their deaths, but in return he would be a child again and lose his assured future. He may yet fail, and lose not only his family but all life on Earth.
>But Jon is willing to risk it all to have his dad back.
>The clock is turned backward, Jon refuses Jor-El's offer, and at the appointed time the Timebeast is prepared to slaughter the Superfamily yet again
>Only this time, Jor-El steps in. He can't bring himself to lose his son twice. He sacrifices himself, forcing Jon to use his unstable powers to supernova both Jor and the Timebeast out of existence.
>Restructuring of Superman comics: Superman has his own book while Jon takes Action Comics and rejoins the Teen Titans. Supergirl maintains her solo, but a new book is made for Kon-El and the Power Girls, who form a trio as the "black sheep" of the family and have their own more lighthearted adventures, bonding as siblings.
How did I do?

Ten percent of my pay to the church and then I pay my bills.

Bruh the Final Flash is just the Kamehameha but yellow and done from the 'I want a hug' stance.

Supes just got a rip off of Magic Burst from Hero in Smash Brothers.

Deage Jon to be 14.
Him and Damian fuck. Jon is concerned about Damian being able to handle his 14 inch cock but Damian quiets him and rides him like a porn star.

Same thing I plan to do if I ever follow up Bendis on anything: introduce copies of his OCs, all of which lean far more heavily into being a minority while pretending his characters don't exist.

He was referencing Vegeta’s sacrifice

>give the job back to Tomasi
Writers don't get to do that.

Have Superman wake up and realize that Bendis' run was all just a dream.

Either that or say that Doomsday Clock ended with Doctor Manhattan undoing all of Bendis' run.

Ask to write a different character I like. Or somehow incorporate character (s) into my run.

it fine

That's why for five days a week I wear a shirt with a capital T on it so when I die doing the stupid shit i do it'll be Mr. T's fault.

Make him a homeless alcoholic with a sense of humor, add a female kryptonian. Make a shit romance plotline once they find eachother (make ntr a focus) and also remove his parents, job, louis, friends, costume, personality and villains. Also make him black.

Start the first comic with Clark Kent being called for a reporting job in New York for a high school science fair. He gets bit by a double radioactive spider made so by genetic testing and because a dark meteorite pased by it. Superman doesnt notice the bite because he's Superman and he cant feel like how normal beings do, so he ignores it goes back home. The spider bit is altering his DNA but not to a spiders but rather to what the spider last ate, a fly. Slowly Superman becomes a fly, a mix of comedy scenes and slapstick and funny reactions until the transformations goes too far (because Superman cant go to the doctor) and he acidily melts his baby in its crib and slurps it up with his new tube mouth and then grinds up louis with his new rub by arms and bexomes a full horse sized (approximately) fly. He then flies back to New york cuz he smells something. He finds petet parker with Louis Lane or the other one and he fights peter and wins, then he rapes her and flies to the twin towers to build his nest, now spider man must fight the super fly before the eggs hatch and shes eaten alive. Working title: Superman in: SPIDER MAN VS. THE SUPREME FLY. also make him black.

And have Reis draw it, he genuinely make Nuclear Man look fucking cool.

>The Superboy That Jor-El broght back isn't the real Jon and is a clone/alien that Jor-El created to trick Superman into being close with him.
>Do the entire run of superman going and meeting new alien cultures and races while he tries to find his son.
>Superman learns about different family and friend dynamics, a big theme in the run
>Supers also has to battle with what does his Kryptonian history mean for Jon and what he passes down
>We learn Jor-El was right about Krypton going to explode and Rog-Zol or whoever the fuck is a lying shit stain who was just a crazy person.
>Final few issues's is Clack finding his Son held hostage by Super-Boy Prime
>Prime is angry that he became forgotten and his Earth was left in ruin post Nu52
>Clark must stop Prime from killing Jon, who Prime believes got the life he should have had
>Clark understands that it's not his biology who made him the way he is, but his parents and the friends that influenced his life
>He now know's what he wants his son to really learn about family
>They team up and beat Prime
>Prime gets sent Back to Green Lantern Jail til Superman can decide what to do with him.
>End the story with Clack, Jon, and Lois having a movie night, just like they used to

> 1 6 issue arc.
> Centers around New 52 Faora in despair at seeing herself having been replaced by Rebirth Ursa but still has too much love/honor for Zod to try and break them up.
> She gets her hands on reality altering tech to try and kill Superman as a pre suicide goodbye gift to Zod.
> It doesn't work but she brings forth 3 other Faoras from other realities. The misandrist one from the 1960s, the cyborg one from the Russian Zod days and the one who found redemption aiding Superman against He'l. That redeemed one warns Superman and allies with him against the evil Faora trinity.
> Ivan Reis on art.
> The Faora's are sexualized.

Have Ed Brubaker write it.

I'd do very down to earth character focused comics involving not just Superman but most of extended cast in addition to whatever occasional guest appearances would be suitable and or fun.
But I'd get back to Silver Age shenanigans no fucks given. Not only am I convinced it'd be more fun and engaging reading, I also think it'd be a much better vehicle to actually explore the characters.

Would it sell? Maybe not. But the shift in style would probably garner some attention at the very least.

Doing exactly what every writer at Marvel did after they got a book that was formely written by Bendis: Retconning everything he did and never reference it ever again.

Kill Clark, the story is now his son trying to fill the father's shoes

>that greentext origin for Nuclear Man that turned him into a tragic villain parallel to Superman

Honestly the misandrist serial killer one would be the best. A powerhouse villain who actively avoids confrontation while using her powers to get away with horrific murders.

Write Goku vs Superman.

Can someone give me a quick rundown on what exactly Bendis did to the character that's causing such a fuss around here?

>Open with some stupid fight with Rogol Zaar with Kal and Jon sharing the fight, it's bright and colourful and he's getting his ass handed to him
>He manages to create a gash around Jon's chest and Superman quickly takes care of Zaar and carries a semi-conscious Jon off
>Jon begins to bleed Kryptonite and is panicked, immobilised while he watches his dad keeling over
>When Superman wakes up, he's in a kryptonite infused container on a spaceship helmed by Lois
>She reveals she created that Jon in order to get close to Superman
>This was the keikaku of Brainiac 14, who wants to break Superman and make him his pawn when the future catches up
>The artificial Jon uses the last of his power to bust through the ship and free Superman before passing away
>He's able to take out the fake Lois
>The ship is on autopilot so Superman rides it out
>He's brought to a planet that's been converted into a Warworld based on Brainiac 13's schematics in The Imperiex War
>Rescues Lois and finds out Jon has been fighting here
>He tries to rescue Jon but his son retaliates, angry that Superman couldn't hear him calling out
>Superman explains everything that happened but Jon doesn't believe him, thinking that his dad is another one of Brainiac 14's attempts to break him
>Superman is eventually able to convince him and they hug and return home, with Clark vowing that he'll come back and stop Brainiac 14
>Hero saves the day, Jon and Lois are back, Bendis' character assassinations of them are undone
>It's revealed that rather than burying the artificial Jon, he was able to save him and Jon 2 is living in their old house in the country from Tomasi's run now

There’s already the Braniac-Lois from the Black Ring, might as well use her. You could have her be trying to permanently rid Lex of Supes so he can grow as a person.

Honestly keep Jon but get rid of Lois. Superman should find another woman to be with. She’s been nothing but annoying.

There seem to be least two different women named Lois Lane married to Superman right now. You can’t tell me that Rucks’a fits her characterization in any other current run.

Just a massive two page spread saying "Bendis is gone."

End the series in a way that's impossible to retcon back to life.
It has been 85 fucking years, it's time to end this shit.

Superheroes will exist as long as the U.S. government and its masters need a way to message to kids.

He'd just make as many shit retcons as bendis

>tomasi
lol

Lex Luthor discovers somebody was fucking with HIS history.
Because being manipulated is the only thing he hates more than Superman, they team-up undoing Bendis.
At the end Luthor decides he's not going to hate Superman just because somebody else has decided it, and Superman decided to give a break in suspecting Luthor of everything.
They still dislike each other though.

The Legion brings back a Jon de-aged by undefined Legion shenanigans.
(this lets a writer to write Teen Jon in the Legion as long as they want doing whatever they want, they just have to de-age him back at some point)

Roll back everything Bendis did. All of it. Make it a fever dream, I don't care

Do a 6-issue arc establishing Bendis' run as a corrupted Black Mercy hallucination. Have an insert for Bendis get brutally raped and murdered.

Hand over the book back to Tomasi/Gleason.

Retcon Rogol into being a Czarnian that was off-world when Lobo killed everyone who lied about having destroyed Krypton to seem badass (to try and intimidate Lobo into not killing him). Lobo reveals this to Superman, they both laugh at Rogol being a little bitch, and then kick his ass together.

I would come here and make a thread asking anons what they would do and then I would pick the worst ideas and combine them all

Would this be before OR after Lex absorbed J’onn to achieve his final form?
