First Look: Lois Lane’s New Boy Toy

This week, the internet has been on fire about the new take on Clark Kent and Lois Lane’s relationship in DC Comics. Today comes the first look at Lois’ new boyfriend, a co-worker at The Daily Planet named Jonathan Carroll.

“Superman is one of the World’s Greatest Super Heroes, but he can’t have it all,” DC Entertainment Co-Publisher Jim Lee told THE NEW YORK DAILY NEWS. “Many of us know what it’s like to be the odd man out and we think readers will have a soft spot for Clark when they see his reaction to Lois’ new boyfriend.”

“In resetting Superman’s story and origin, it gave us a chance to revisit the challenges of that relationship in a contemporary setting,” said DC Entertainment Co-Publisher Dan DiDio.

SUPERMAN #1, by George Perez and Jesus Merino, flies into stores on September 28th.
