shankieMust inevitably result in sharing! :D
Starting with just one shot from Red Son.
Because everyone knows Clark looks good in a uniform, right? Well, he looks even better in that kind of uniform.
Batman was a crazy terrorist in that one. You know. Like half of Elseworlds, only a little crazier than usual.
Now.
You know what really surprised me those most out of anything in a while? True Brit. Superman if he was raised in England. There are multiple references to Monty Python, and the whole thing shifts from farce to realism left and right. It's pretty darn funny.
This is just a little. Bat-Man revealed, farming with super-powers, and a suit-shot. Just because.
Next, Kal. A medieval setting in which Clark is generally shirtless/naked.
Seriously? The point of this book seems to be beefcake. So, here's some half-naked Kryptonian for you all.
Lastly, Act of God. The lack of Wally in Elseworlds (for the most part) had me going back to this, because I really liked his part.
The superheroes of Earth have all lost their powers. In the middle of what they were doing, which is disastrous as you can well imagine. Flash was in the middle of stopping a bullet.
So, a few de-powered heroes go to Batman for training; to learn how to be heroes without powers.
Unsurprisingly, Wally and Bruce get into a huge fight where he stalks out all huffy.
But he does come back. Joins merry band for battle in their dubious costumes. I guess Wally's is alright. He ends up kicking a super-powered Joker's ass later, so, he must be doing something right.
And what are Clark and Diana doing? Well, going insane. Clark leaves Lois for Diana, then leaves Diana for booze once she gets all... Christian and pious, but with skin-tight mini-skirts.
Clark is later found drunk in an alley.
Jeeze.
