Excerpts from the fan reactions to the Amalgam relaunch from the message boards of BleedingAlliance.com and ComicBookResoucearama.com....
"I hate this new Super Soldier, he's a bully! The Super-Soldier I grew up with didn't beat up people weaker than him! He just stood above Nazi soldiers quietly judging them until they were shamed into surrendering! That's a real hero!!!"
"Amazon has pants!!!???!!"
"Five Sparrows in five years?! How does that work?"
"Why does Super Soldier need armour? Come to think of it why does he need a shield?!"
"That loser Blaze Allen is Speed Demon again but there's no sign of Wally! This sucks"
"So Barbara Hardy is Black Bat again? How does that work!?"
"Did you see what they did to Shatterstarfire in Deathlok and the Outlaws? Disgusting!"
"Liefeld on Hawk and Dagger? Count me in!!!"
"So did Identity War still happen?"
"So Spider-Boy is a complete reboot? Does that mean he's not married to Insect Queen any more?"
"Meh, this all just a rehash of Zero Hour Reborn. I give this reboot six months"
"J.D. Quidio has killed Amalgam! I've been collecting for thirty years but NO MORE!!"
"Bring back Super Soldier's red shorts!!!"
The Superman #1 (2011) cover is by George Perez. The boot flaps are from Cap's armour in Captain America #438 (1995) by Dave Hoover. The S-shield is from Jeremy Roberts brilliant interpretation of DCNu Superman, check it out.

I should me do some mix from the new 52 series of DC and the Ultimate Comics from the Marvel.
