The Death of Superman Page #5

---

just like always.

We're breaking up!

Stay calm, everyone.

He's on his way. I know it.

- ...lose some thrusters. Out of control...

- Hey, what are you...

It's okay, Terri. You can

always count on Superman.

Terri, no!

Superman, I knew

you'd come.

Mr. Luthor? I have to

hurry before I'm missed.

The meteorite's landed

in the mid-Atlantic channel,

Coordinates 4712 North,

74595 West.

Did you get that?

You son's anti-toxin will

be delivered within the hour.

Congratulations on his survival.

Time to go for a swim.

Clark, flank me!

Seriously, Diana. We need to

use code names in the field.

You just called me Diana.

But that's what you

want to be called.

You want to be called Superman?

Sounds like even your ego

is super strong.

I just don't need

my real name public.

Besides...

I like Superman.

Because Wonder Man sounds

like we're married?

No. Because

she gave it to me.

You mean Lois?

Yeah, Lois.

Funny how you use her actual name,

but don't allow her to know yours.

It's a complicated

relationship.

Kind of like ours was.

It was nice for a while.

Yes, it was.

It's just as well.

I wasn't very good at playing

this masquerade of yours.

Towel?

I don't sweat.

Maybe not on the outside.

Guys, Lennon

finally made it.

We're all in

the meeting room.

Descending

down, past 9,000 meters.

2,500 meters. I hear something

off the port side.

I'm paying you for

your experience, Hazelwood.

Be skittish on

your own time.

We're already at

10,000 meters, Mr. Luthor.

Dive deeper. I wanna

find that meteorite.

Uh, Mr. Luthor,

there's someone out there.

Those are Atlanteans,

you idiot. Aquaman's tribe.

Hold on, Lex.

I'm picking up something.

I suppose you want us to find

out where that's coming from.

You suppose correctly.

They stopped.

Something just grabbed them!

I can't get a visual.

It sounds like they're being torn apart.

Mr. Luthor,

are you still there?

We've gotta get out of here!

We gotta... We gotta...

What the hell?

He's gone.

Go back. I want

to see that thing again.

Amazing. A creature

who's traveled light years

through space and survived

a catastrophic entry to Earth.

The Blue Boy Scout could

have some competition.

Okay, next up, the operating budget

for the upcoming fiscal year.

Utilities are above what the

UN cleared for funding, guys.

I'll handle it.

Move on, Cyborg.

Wonder Woman merchandise

did very well this year.

I can step up when the Wayne

Foundation falls short.

You're kidding, right?

Okay, okay. Let's just agree we

have this covered. What else?

Just the Excalibur incident.

Only three bodies recovered.

I've got my guards

investigating the impact area.
