This bookish meme tells the blogosphere what we're waiting patiently (and sometimes not so patiently) for! It's hosted by Jill over at Breaking the Spine!
When the dawn breaks, a hero rises.
His power is beyond imagining.
Clark Kent has always been faster, stronger--better--than everyone around him. But he wasn't raised to show off, and drawing attention to himself could be dangerous. Plus, it's not like he's earned his powers . . yet.
But power comes with a price.
Lately it's difficult to hold back and keep his heroics in the shadows. When Clark follows the sound of a girl crying, he comes across Gloria Alvarez and discovers a dark secret lurking in Smallville. Turns out, Clark's not the only one hiding something. Teaming up with his best friend, Lana Lang, he throws himself into the pursuit of the truth. What evil lies below the surface of his small town? And what will it cost Clark to learn about his past as he steps into the light to become the future Man of Steel? Because before he can save the world, he must save Smallville.

Why I'm Waiting: With the release of Catwoman came the release of the cover and the synopsis for Superman's book by Matt De La Pena. And let's be honest, with the Smallville reference, it sounds amazing. (I LOVED that show when I was younger.) And even though Catwoman was good, I'm happy to get back to having another HERO and not an anti-hero from DC back in my hands. I'm super interested in seeing where this will go and if this is really the end of the DC Icons series. I really want someone to write one of these about Aquaman and Green Lantern and ugh about ALL OF THE DC lol
And lastly, let's talk about how these covers all look SO FRIGGIN AWESOME TOGETHER!
Will you be waiting on this with me?
What are you waiting on this week?
