We ran a couple of Before Watchmen August issue covers last week. But we didn't run this one for Ozymandias #2, with Jae Lee showing Ozymandias in a

An utterly fascinating account of some DC editorial history caps off the week:  "Shortly after the completion of the Watchmen series by Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons, DC's main editors went on retreat The retreatees included Karen Berger, Mike Gold, Denny O'Neil, Mike Carlin, and Andy Helfer The brain trust returned with three "sequels" to[...]

But I didn't. This month's issue of Superman, by Giffen and Jurgens, gives us the Wildstorm villain Helspont in his war against the Daemonites on Earth, but in doing so captured Superman, in a rather familiar fashion.
