WTF Wednesday: Wait - Superman's a furry?!?

Who loves his kitty? Who loves his itty kitty?!? Superman! Superman loves his little woogie woogie, yesh he does! Yesh he ... oh. Oh yes. Oh my, yes.

Ugh, sorry. I even grossed myself out there.

Honestly, I don't even know where to begin. There are aliens, a kid in the hospital, a cat and the term "boomerang powers" running amok through this issue of Superman, and even though I've read it a few times I'm still not exactly sure what the hell is going on.

Also, that smile on Superman's face is the creepiest thing I've ever seen. Stop clipping that tail on under your cape, Superman!!
