I'm not liking this Kal. But kudos to you for painting such a vivid picture of him. At least I don't hate him.
Still reading, though I'm still trying to find a redeeming quality of him. *grimace* And Lois, my heart goes out to her. If there's any indication that the damage she sustained would be reversible, and she'd actually return from being *shudders* Wanda Kent to Lois Lane, I'd feel better about Kal and this story.
Still reading... I'm looking forward to the next part, and yet dreading it as well.
