#ac791 is also good! and sad. and standalone (it's mostly a flashback to clark's days at smallville high)

Immediately went to read AC792 because you recommended it (cuz your recs are always amazing) and ooooh ouch ow it was such a good exploration of Clark's character like you said, and the amount of care he showed trying to find Valentin, like asking his friends and loved ones for help and doing everything he possibly could both as Superman and Clark to find him just really illustrates the depth of how much he cares for people and specifically individual people. It literally almost had me in tears at the end because I was just so hopeful Valentin would be found alright. That line said by Pablo towards the end "Who would miss him? Who would care?" just hit me so hard because not only was I thinking "Clark Kent/ Superman would", Pablo was realizing that too and really coming to terms with what he'd done and aaaaaa I'm going to be thinking about this issue forever now whenever I think about Superman. Sorry for rambling, but thank you for the wonderful rec!!

never apologize for rambling at me about superman comics but ESPECIALLY not ac792. oh man.

im so glad you liked it too!!! bc GOD its one of my favorite comics i have ever read asdfhkjds like. you get it!!!! "who would care?" superman would. every time. and omg same when i was reading i was honestly so uncertain like, surely he'll be okay, right? superman is the fantasy of being able to save people. right? except for when he can't... like i was genuinely so not sure if he'd be okay or not.

which is like. that's so well written!!! the ending being what it was is so... ough :( at least he got closure for valentin's daughter but it's still just so sad but in such a believable way. like, the mundanity of tragedy. the panel of him standing at the bottom of the harbor looking so sad GETS me. augh.

BUT YEAH im glad you enjoyed it!!! ac792 the comic that you areee 😭🩷🥺😭🩷🥺😭😭🩷🥺😭🩷😭🩷😭🩷🥺🥺😭
