To save people reading, it's been available for 18 months, nobody's bought it. They're doing an offshoot miniseries instead with a bunch of different covers in a bid to get people to buy the same thing more than once and for it to try and enter the collectors' radar.

The simple fact is, nobody really wants a gay superman, even if he is supposed to be the son of Clark Kent and Lois Lane (Heteros? Ulgh! At least make Lois a trans, amirite?).

But in an odd way, it could work to bring some cash into the franchise given there are some out there who get googly eyed over collectors' editions. Or just want the novelty of knowing in 30 years they can show off this quirk of history, reflective of the 2020s, or twenty troon-teens. That and it may provide some thin legitimacy so the woke can harp on about how amazing it is.

They still haven't learned, go woke go broke. This stunt has already cost them dearly to the point where Warner Brothers have even kicked them out of their offices, they're a gnat's nose hair away from being canned. They are relying on their old IPs to put together viable future releases in order to keep Warner happy. You know, the ones that we all know and love, the ones where Superman isn't sucking cock, or Batman isn't showing up in a bondage club, or He-Man and Skeletor are battling it out with swords and not sitting down to talk about feelings.
