Since the beginning of his adventures in DC Comics For more than 80 years, Clark Kent has been a journalist at the Daily Planet, while his alter ego saved Metropolis time and again. Of course, the reporter recounted the superhero’s exploits in the pages of the newspaper as if they were separate personalities, but that is no longer the case.
As reported in Bleeding Cool, it was during the events of Action Comics #1067 When journalist Lois Lane has decided put a stop to unethical practices of her husband. Why has she taken this position? Lane has exposed the obvious conflict of interests in which the character incurs, since he is both a party and a judge of the same event.
Kent offers a absolutely biased perspective of each of Kal-El’s exploits, as he himself is clear about why he does what he does and what motivates him. In addition, it is possible that he acts differently or manipulates information so as not to accurately reflect reality, two circumstances that the Daily Planet’s reputation cannot afford.
The editor-in-chief of the media outlet exercises her position above all else and carries out with determination what Perry White never did. We will see how Kent manages from now on to tell new stories, but in the arc written by the New York Times bestselling debut authorRainbow Rowell, it’s not going to happen.
