Yes. Chloe appeared in back up stories to Paul Cornell's Action Comics run prior to the relaunch. Think the plan was to eventually bring her into the main book, but of course the relaunch happened. Prior to this Kurt Busiek attempted to work her into his run but it never quite worked out.

I was kind of surprised they didn't work her into the New52 Superman stories in some manner.

I thought they would with a bit about Clark having to pick up Lois' cousin at the airport (but didn't get around to it due to his Supermanning around.) I suspect they still can introduce Chloe but since Supes is hooking up with Wonder Woman right now, Chloe seems like -and forgive me- a step down.

I just think they gave up on trying to do anything with Chloe in the DCU/52'Verse. Those back up stories were kind of boring to be honest anyway and didn't bring anything to the character. Besides which we still have Chloe proper in Season 11 thanks to Bryan Miller and that's enough for me

Anyway, new images

Not nuts about the costume but saw the full trailer on TV the other day and the movie looks like it could be a winner. Fingers crossed.

It comes out on Thursday I believe.

I actually like the weird blue mesh look of the costume, but I think the red "S" would look better with a smoother texture. Either way, I've never been a huge Superman fan, and this actually looks like something I want to check out.

Okay, the nearest one is a state away, but it's only about an hour drive . . . .

^Isn't the camera on the wrong side to catch the guy in the suit?

Why is it that super-hero costumes have to look like kick balls? I've never understood the argument. Something about texture? Well why doesn't everyone's clothes look like a kick ball?
