I just got a chance to catch up on this story, and I am very much enjoying it so far.

The exposition that we have seen hints that this will be a dark and pensive story, but in a good way. The quality of your writing is very good, and I have been drawn into the story.

I am looking forward to more sections.

I like it, too. The hints that there was a second super-clone, the imminent danger that Leviathan poses to our favorite super-couple, the nearness of the rest of the Lane family (who seem to make good candidates for the WHAM you warned us about), your warning about Dark Superman (about whom I'm already wondering), the easy banter on a Monday morning, Clark's failure to discern between Lois and Lucy (which might also foreshadow an important plot point), and the general high quality of the prose all make this one of the stories which I hope continues quickly. Even this early in the story, the new characters are well-drawn, the conflict has been defined, and the participants have been introduced swiftly and efficiently. I'm looking forward to following this one.

I am hoping Clark's oops with Lucy was an oops and nothing more. Anything other is too spooky to ponder.

I just read the first 3 parts and really enjoyed them. I can't wait to see where this is going.

Just to let you know I've been skimming this story with increasing interest, and plan to read it properly at some point. Just from what I've seen so far, I can tell it's a well-balanced mix of original A-plot and B-plot, and the characters are very nicely drawn. Keep posting!
