I'm sitting here thinking about everything and nothing.
Reading "KINGDOM COME" - a graphic novel about the last event in the DC comics universe - and it's really got my mind going. The basic run down on the plot is; 10 years before the story begins, Superman goes into seclusion after he is put on trial for warning that Lex Luthor is evil. Following this his peers (Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, The Flash) also retire. The children and grandchildren of these heros have no concept of TRUTH AND JUSTICE - they are simply superpowered thugs who destroy the better part of the USA - This causes Superman to return with his crew and clean things up. He tries to get Batman (now a broken old man) to join him but Batman refuses. All these events begin the end of the world.
It's got me thinking about mankind..... how apathetic we have become. This country was hijacked by the rich. War has been waged over oil and people still think that the USA is doing this for human rights. I've lost faith in people because there is something very alarming about a race that will ignore truth, disregard all signs or wrong doing..... who are more upset when their cell phone doesn't work than when the leader of the country is a LIAR, KILLER and DIPSHIT!
I don't believe Superman is going to save us but it would sure be welcome.
