Cool preview!

I liked reporter style narration from Lois and that was a cool cameo by...

I thought this issue was pretty great.

I love how kick ass Lois is here, having everyone's number indeed!!!!

The threat of Rao felt pretty major (still does!) and the cliffhanger with Chris was very cool too.
I am a little worried that everything regarding Thaya/Chris, them as the embodiments of Flamebird/Nightwing and the round up of the sleeper agents is coming to a head pretty fasy now.
I'm really hoping that once the Last Stand of New Krypton/War of the Supermen event is over that we'll still have these two characters around the DCU.

I really dug the Captain Atom co-feature too, and how could I not when it featured Skartaris!

I don't know why, but I feel as though narration works very well in the Super-books. Kurt Busiek used that. I'd like to see Batman do that as well.

Issue was loads of fun...My favorite thing about Gregs run on Adventures of Superman way back when was when he used lois to tell the narative. I wanna see Chris use his Nightwing powers already.
