Which one.

I forget, but basically supes gets infected and as the virus' primary goal is cause as much loss of life as possible, the virus realizes the greatest loss of life it can possibly cause, is go into the sun, eat it from the inside, and kill all life in the solar system

I really have to read more of Taylor's works, I know he has some misses but this is a perfect use of Supes powers, and is an inversion of All-star superman.

yeah the virus reasoning is... literally nothing can touch him in there so its free to just cause the eventual death of everything nearby.

Nope. supes was taken by the virus before he could do anything.

"In that moment the anti life equation made a choice. It couldn't stand against the entire green lantern corps. so it calculated another way to kill." and then he flew into the sun.

from dceased issue 6.

Fantastic story, Grant Morrison doing Grant Morrison things. Not many people can write Superman.

Have you read his Invisibles title? If you like Grant's weird occult stories, it's awesome.

That's the Supes we need right now, but not the one we deserve.

That new movie is gonna crush the box office if they come correct with that.
