DC Comics' 'woke' Superman reboot fails to fly with readers: "Superman: Son of Kal-El" #1 sold only 68,800 copies since it debuted in July
The story line involves the son of the original Superman working as a climate activist, as well as an advocate for illegal immigrants.
California-based DC decided to make the new Superman bisexual, starting a homosexual liaison with reporter Jay Nakamura.
Sales of the new comic book have failed since DC replaced Clark Kent with his millennial son Jonathan Kent. That change took place last summer.
DC Comics Publisher Jim Lee announced the company was changing Superman’s motto of "Truth, Justice, and the American Way" to "Truth, Justice, and a Better Tomorrow."
Sales numbers fell way short of prior Superman reboots.
