monition : spoilers for Action Comics # 1045 are ahead .
A Modern scourge to the DC Universe could be on its fashion . Although major threats are never in short provision , the farseeing - timeSupermanvillain Mongul has long been look at one of the most unsafe – and the current Mongul , son of the late , seems even more ruthless than his herald . Often referred to as DC ’s answer to Thanos ( a whim supported by the fact that Mongul co - creator Jim Starlin also create Thanos , ) Mongul has long been one of the few baddie who can declare oneself not only a reliable physical challenge to Superman , but also a moral and logistic one . The Warworld Saga inactivity Comicsby author Phillip Kennedy Johnson and artist Riccardo Federici , Will Conrad , and Brent Peeples has shown exactly why Mongul is such a scourge to the DC Universe – and Superman ’s private journal of result have testify why he may even be a menace in defeat .

Throughout the events of the Warworld Saga , Superman has been keeping a journal , to which the reader has been presented with relevant fragments . In his daybook toAction Comics#1045 ( written by Johnson , with artistic creation by Will Conrad and Brent Peeples , ) Superman write that " whichever of us defeats Mongul , the title of ' Mongul ' will pass to them , whether we accept it or not . Nevertheless , we will not accept it . " In stating this , he do it unmortgaged that he would prefer the people of Warworld to be free to prefer their own drawing card . An optimistic thought , but it opens a risk to the people of WarWorld thatSuperman is either unaware of , or unwilling to go for .
Should the gyration go as design , Mongul is shoot down and the people of Warworld freed , it will be up to them to freely choose a loss leader . Considering the nefarious powerful elites of Warworld , this could be a severe possibility . It could make a ability vacuum , one which the various tyrants and baddie of Warworld will be dire to fulfill . That would doubtlessly leave to infighting and perhaps more far-flung social topsy-turvyness . Perhaps it is naive to take on that a transfer of force would go peacefully on Warworld . Several appendage of Mongul ’s inner circle , specially his booster Teacher , and his consultant Chaytil , seem balance to take the throne from Mongul , not to name the hypothesis of unknown threat hold off to be reveal .
AlthoughSuperman ’s design are decidedly noble , he may have taken on more than he could handle by attempt to free another creation from tyranny . Although Mongul ’s rule is roughshod , and not justifiable by any means , the end of Mongul ’s rule could just as easily result in acid and deadly conflict on Warworld as it could in a peaceful changeover of power . If that happens , the incrimination willlie squarely on Superman . Of naturally , thing could go other than , and Warworld could have a peaceful changeover of powerfulness to a drawing card who can play justice and fairness to Warworld . regrettably , it is difficult to imagine someone other thanSupermanhimself who could sate that role .
