Everyone here is probably a Superman fan, but I don't think you can love LnC without also being a Lois fan. After all, whose name comes first? On a less facetious note, the defining difference between the Superman character in LnC and the other incarnations of Superman is his humanity, expressed in part by his deep love for Lois. You can view it either as a strength or as a "fatal flaw," but he wouldn't exist without Lois and he can't survive without her. That doesn't explain why so many of us are willing to see Superman destroyed in Dandello's story (because I agree that the standalone story was more powerful but I like the continuation too). Maybe the answer is that in spite of being a murderer and evil, he never lost his love for Lois?
