2. Jor-El

(Superman, DC Comics)

Anyone who isn't current on DC Comics is probably pretty darn confused right about now.

But yeah, Jor-El is back. And he's evil. Look, I like Dan Jurgens a lot and I think his Action Comics run has been one of the better DC Rebirth books. Hell, it brought me some new Booster Gold. How the hell could I be mad about it?

Buuut with the recent revelation that Mr. Oz was actually a rescued Jor-El – seemingly spirited away from Krypton's destruction by SOMEbody *cough cough* Dr. Manhattan *cough cough* – we unfortunately have Superman's papa  back alive. Which was a very bad idea. Superman's birth parents and Batman's parents were in the Uncle Ben category of Don't bring them back, you idiots.

Having Jor-El back really didn’t give us anything, but it sure as hell took something away from Superman as a character. Krypton's inaccessibility was an important part of Clark's humanity, and giving him a living breathing link really messed with that.
