A moment of supersilence, please: In Action Comics No. 870, released on Wednesday, Jonathan Kent, the adoptive father of Superman, suffers a fatal heart attack. His death comes after the supervillain Brainiac attacks the Kent farmhouse in an attempt to hurt Superman; despite all his mighty power, the Man of Steel is unable to save his dad. Superman “lost one of the biggest tethers to Earth and his human life,” said Geoff Johns, the writer of Action Comics. “It’s going to be pretty brutal for him to deal with the fallout.” This is at least the fourth death of Jonathan Kent in the Superman mythos, following previous demises in comic books (in 1939), the “Superman” feature film (in 1978) and the television series “Smallville” (2006). Rest in peace (again), Pa.
