Many have justified Man of Steel's - to put it politely - questionable depiction of the iconic hero by arguing that the film showcases a Superman who's still new to the job and learning how to become the hero he's meant to be. You can't build a Superman without breaking a few eggs, right? Even if those eggs happen to be thousands of innocent lives and half the buildings in Metropolis? There are plenty of valid counterpoints to that argument, but perhaps none as eloquent as Superman: American Alien #5.
In the latest chapter of this unexpectedly delightful mini-series, Landis reconnects with a Clark who's at a similar point in his life as the one in Man of Steel. He's beginning to use his powers to help the people of Metropolis, even if he's not quite sure how to go about it. He wears a hodgepodge costume (including, hilariously enough, the cape he stole from Batman in issue #4) and lacks a good superhero name, but Clark is still determined to make his parents proud and use his powers for the betterment of mankind.
