Because you eat your vegetables and wash behind your ears, you would have realised that this week’s blog post is the follow-up to last week’s stunning Superman: Movie Preview.

Since I was old enough to identify the Kree warrior Captain Marvel (or his replacement) from the other one who likes shouting out his friend’s name, I have recognised that comic books are inherently political, and Superman is no exception. A great amount of my political leanings have come from reading comic books, which bleeds through from time to time, if you haven’t noticed.

Comic books have always been political.

I would love to discuss this further, but important blog posts don’t write themselves, plus, I don’t get paid per word. I don’t get paid at all. Let’s move on to one of the world’s most sought-after literary treasures, a Some Geek Told Me movie review.

Sadly, I had to break tradition to purchase a ticket. Physical tickets weren’t available to be presold for some weird reason, even though it was Tuesday, and the film opened on Thursday. Desperate times called for desperate measures, so I bought an online ticket for the first screening at 11.15 am.

I was at the supermarket about 90 minutes before the film started, where I was rocking one of my two Superman t-shirts. I chose my Superman logo t-shirt, since it’s been an important piece of clothing to me, and I wanted to celebrate Superman.

In the past, I have worn that t-shirt under my suit at my wedding and during the births of UMC1 and UMC2. I also wore it when we buried Indy. I know it’s silly and illogical, but whenever I anticipate a challenging event where I need to be brave and strong, I put on that t-shirt for the strength it gives me to push through and get it done.¹

Anyway, I was at the supermarket comparing the sodium content between two items; because I’m cool, when a child I had never seen before walked up and told me that he was going to see Superman that day. I told him I was going to see the movie as well, and that I hoped he enjoyed it. He replied that he loved Superman and proceeded to walk off. That kid was pumped for the movie, and so was I.

Since I had never purchased an online movie ticket before, I had the email open on my phone, so I could show anybody who needed to check it. I felt stupid, because just like all the other times after buying cinema food, I walked straight into the cinema, without anybody checking the ticket.

For an 11.15 am Thursday screening, the cinema was roughly 1/3 full. Superman was here, and people didn’t care about jobs! They played trailers for Predator: Badlands, and The Fantastic Four: First Steps, but also, surprisingly, Peacemaker: Season Two. That TV show had no right to be as good as it was.

As always, let’s go over the rules of the review.

1.) Please be aware there will be spoilers concerning the movie, so proceed with extreme anxiety and caution.

2.) The aim of my reviews are not to rip apart the subject or trash it. If I liked the subject enough to watch it, then I’ll give my honest (possibly biased) opinion.

3.) I’m not a professional critic, so I’m not going to dive into deeper concepts and themes, or the art of filmmaking. I’m just a geek; always have been, and always will be.

Let’s not just stand with our capes flapping in the wind; let’s get on with the review!

First things first, did I like the movie? Yes, I mean, of course I did. It was about the world’s biggest boy scout, Clark Kent. I love Marvel and their characters, but I also love DC, so it was fantastic to see Superman on the big screen again, along with his friends, enemies, robots, and a special canine.

Things I liked:

These are in no particular order; it’s more like I remember them, like the names of capital cities or the All Blacks. I appreciated the film’s exposition, giving a very quick history of the DCU, with details referring to how metahumans have existed on Earth for at least three hundred years. In future projects, those events will be revealed to us, I hope.

Another topic is the use of colour. By this, I mean the visuals, from Clark’s costume to Metropolis, to Guy Gardner, the colours were bright and warm. Even numerous scenes filmed against a clear blue sky were, to me at least, associated with Superman.

When you think of Superman flying around or saving people, the images you conjure up wouldn’t be at night or on a rainy day. No, it would be a clear, blue, and sunny day. I’m not a movie expert, because if I were, I would be making movies, but I feel that James Gunn went out of his way to canvas the film with explosions of colours, of varying degrees of brightness.

It is always great to see Clark’s concern for others while various battles were happening. This concern also covered protecting all life, even when it came to subduing the kaiju and caring for his robots. His ethos for protecting and saving life is plain to see when he saves a dog, a squirrel, and anybody else. Unlike Hawkgirl, who casually kills the President of Boravia, Vasil Ghurkos.

In regards to the battles, it was one of my biggest criticisms of Superman in Man of Steel, that even though Clark was fighting another Kryptonian in the form of Zod, Clark came out of the battle with no injuries, like no bruises, broken bones or cuts. The opposite has been true in Superman, with Clark sustaining several injuries throughout the movie, reinforcing that he may have the power of a god, but he is not a god or invincible; Mark Grayson is.

Clark’s interview with Lois was profound because he uttered a magic sentence with five words that sums up a huge portion of his philosophy: “People were going to die!” Just like what Ben Parker told his nephew, Peter, “With great power comes great responsibility.” Clark is arguably one of the powerful people on the planet, so he takes that responsibility very seriously. If he can save and help people, he will. I think David Corenswet did a brilliant job with this, as well as portraying Clark Kent as a developed character.

And speaking of Clark, his relationship with Lois Lane (Rachel Brosnahan) was interesting, since we’re seeing them at the beginning of their relationship. It was a strong point differentiating between Lois and Clark when Lois mentioned that she questions everybody, whereas, as she explains, Clark thinks everybody is beautiful. For me, at least, it wasn’t that Lois was falling in love with Superman; she was falling in love with Clark. That is a massive difference.

For this middle-aged crybaby, I thought the scene was beautiful and that Brosnahan gave a strong performance about a strong woman, who was dating a very strange man. I also thought it was spot on with Lois, as Brosnahan was detailing the news story to Perry White (Wendell Pierce), as Metropolis was getting ripped in half because of the black hole/rift.

When I explained to my wife that Nicholas Hoult was going to play Lex Luthor, she responded by saying she couldn’t take him seriously, because she could only see him as Beast from the Prequel X-Men films. Having said that, and seen the film, Hoult was outstanding. One of the interesting aspects of Luthor’s personality is that, from his perspective, he was king of the world until an alien freak show turned up and stole his spotlight and attention.

Hoult did a marvellous job at displaying Luthor’s brilliance and intellect, as well as his rage, narcissism, being a master manipulator, and his utter disregard for anybody other than himself. Luthor is Clark’s opposite, in every conceivable way; that’s why he is such a great villain. Clark cares, while Luthor does not, and Hoult nailed this. You could feel the contempt and hatred radiating from Hoult’s Luthor towards Superman. He was sadistic.

The top ten richest people in the world, Elon Musk, Larry Ellison, Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos, Bernard Arnault, Larry Page, Warren Buffett, Steve Ballmer, Sergey Brin, and Jensen Huang, have a combined total of at least US$2,009,500,000,000 ($2.009 trillion). It’s sad that with all of this wealth, not one of these people has become Batman; however, it’s a miracle that no one has become Lex Luthor, though Musk seems to be walking down that path.

I’ve always liked the character of Michael Holt, aka Mister Terrific. Since his first appearance in 1997, Holt has become a much-loved icon with DC and the wider world of comic books. Supposedly, he’s the third-smartest person on the planet, and Edi Gathegi was amazing at displaying Holt’s intelligence and morality. People have said that he stole every scene, and I have to admit, his no-nonsense attitude was funny when compared to Guy and Clark. He was the breakout star of the film.

Nathan Fillion was Guy Gardner personified, and I loved his “upgrade” comment and his haircut argument with Lois. It was very on brand for Guy to be a jerk, especially tossing Boravian tanks around, while giving them the finger. Classy.

I could be wrong about this, but watching Anthony Carrigan’s Metamorpho was like watching the alien from John Carpenter’s The Thing. I’ve said this before, but Metamorpho is a criminally underrated character, so it was satisfying to see him using his quirky powers.

I know introducing Krypto the Superdog could be considered corny, and it is, but like it or not, Krypto is a big part of the Superman mythos. Long-time readers will know my connection to Krypto, so I surprised myself by not crying; I was just happy to see him. They did an amazing job of creating a CGI flying dog.

There’s more positive things I could talk about, like Clark acknowledging that his real parents were Jonathan and Martha Kent, the children of Jarhanpur calling out for Superman’s help, the anti-war and pro-immigrant themes, the Boravia and Jarhanpur situation (Israel and Palestine), but it boils down to this: Superman is something that Clark can do. You can take away Superman’s powers, but you still have Clark’s ideals and philosophy. That’s what makes him super.

Things I disliked:

This is difficult because it feels like I’m nitpicking, but no film, ever, is 100% perfect from start to finish, and Superman is no exception. For example, even though I love the Star Wars films, there are still issues with them.

I have previously voiced my admiration for Superman & Lois, it was a phenomenal TV show. I enjoyed Tyler Hoechlin’s Superman, but I enjoyed his Clark Kent even more. At home with his wife, Lois, he would still wear his glasses because, even though he didn’t need them to see, the glasses were part of his personality.

Having said that, it was slightly disappointing to see Corenswet only wear the glasses for maybe two scenes in the entire film. Like I said, I’m nitpicking.

I would have loved to see more of the Engineer, or at least see her try to redeem herself. She seems to have been in debt to Luthor, so hopefully she will do that in future projects.

I felt the same with Hawkgirl. Mister Terrific, Metamorpho and Guy Gardner all had their time to shine, but Hawkgirl didn’t get the same chance, or maybe I’m imagining it. Regardless, I would love to see more Hawkgirl’s character.

I also got the impression that the Justice Gang were shoehorned into the film, but at the same time, I understand why.

There were two scenes that I found odd. The first was when the giant kaiju appeared, and the citizens of Metropolis were running in panic. I could almost picture Gunn shouting, “Action!” It felt humorous and unconvincing to me.

The second scene was when Krypto sat on Lois’ lap. It was obvious that nothing was actually on Brosnahan’s lap and that she was talking to thin air since Krypto would have been added in post-production. It was strange.

I’m being overly critical by nitpicking in this section. I enjoyed the film too much to find any more faults, as I realise I’m just being pedantic now.

So, what about my preview questions?

• Will the plot make sense, or will it be riddled with holes? The plot did make sense, though it did feel rushed. The pocket dimension and the tensions between Boravia and Jarhanpur could have done with some more explanation.
• Will any of the other superheroes be meeting Superman for the first time? From what I saw, Mister Terrific, Guy Gardner, and Hawkgirl had all met Superman before, while Metamorpho met him for the first time in the film.
• How long have Clark and Lois been a couple? You could debate that Clark and Lois have known each other for about three years, but they have only been together for three months.
• Will there be references to other superheroes? Though they were not all superheroes, we had Maxwell Lord (Sean Gunn), Bradley Cooper (Jor-El), Angela Sarafyan (Lara Lor-Van), Peacemaker (John Cena), and Rick Flag Snr from Creature Commandos (Frank Grillo), along with several famous voice acting roles, especially with the Fortress of Solitude robots. Here’s a shout-out to the Gotham City road sign!
• With the inclusion of several superheroes, will Superman be a supporting cast member in his own movie? Upon further reflection, I would say no, he was not a supporting cast member. Gunn did an excellent job of balancing this with the other characters, but Clark was still the main attraction.
• Will adding Krypto turn the movie into a spoof or comedy? Yes, adding Krypto did make it a bit corny and silly. However, that automatically did not make it a negative thing; it just made it more comic-accurate.
• How will Krypto be introduced? Krypto is introduced within the first four minutes of the film. Later on, I thought Clark was vague about how Krypto came to Earth, which I thought was odd. Having said that, there’s a reason that Clark did not explain that information to the audience.
• What is Lois’ relationship with Krypto? Lois first meets Krypto at Clark’s parents’ house, and is surprised that he has a dog, as she knew nothing about it.
• Do Clark and Lois live with each other? After the scene in Lois’ apartment, I would have to say they do not live with each other.
• Will there be a Supergirl cameo or reference? Good question. We had to wait until the end of the film for the twist: Clark was only dog-sitting Krypto because his owner was partying on a planet that orbits a red star. Krypto’s owner is Kara Zor-El, aka Supergirl. It’s nice that Clark still has a connection with Krypto, even though Krypto is not his dog. I can imagine that Krypto’s origin story will be linked with Kara’s, which will be explored in Supergirl, due to be released in 2026.
• Will Luthor be a pawn for another villain, or is he the one in control? Luthor was the puppet master in this film, with nobody controlling him. I mean, Luthor couldn’t even control Luthor.
• How many different villains will there be in the film? There were several villains for the heroes to handle. We had Lex Luthor, the Engineer, the President of Boravia, and Ultraman, who wore the Hammer of Boravia suit. I need to add two other villains that slid under the radar to a certain extent. When Ultraman was introduced in the trailers, fans assumed that “Ultraman” could have been Ultraman from Earth-3, the home world of the Crime Syndicate. It was interesting that after laying breadcrumbs throughout the film, Luthor revealed that Ultraman was a failed clone of Superman. With that revelation, it was obvious that Gunn had hidden Bizarro in plain sight, similar to Bizarro from Superman & Lois. The second secret villain was Clark’s comment to Lois about why he was not going to help the Justice Gang with the fight outside her apartment. He said that it was a dimensional imp, which fans will know as Mister Mxyztplk.
• How will Superman inspire the audience? That’s a hard question to answer. I can’t answer on behalf of society, however, people posting positive content before and after the film gives me hope about this. In my February blog about Superman, the character reminded me that I can be a better person; I just need to try harder. I had forgotten a lot of Clark’s qualities, so I’m reinvesting them in myself. Clark’s speech to Luthor at the end of the film was…well, super. It defines his character.
• Will David Corenswet’s portrayal of Clark Kent be Pre-Crisis or Post-Crisis Clark? I would say that Corenswet’s Clark Kent was definitely a Post-Crisis Clark, which does offer a difference from Christopher Reeve’s Pre-Crisis Clark.
• Does Krypto survive? Yes! How It Should Have Ended predicted a darker outcome for him, along with Clark looking for Krypto, but he survived!

• How does Lois cope knowing her superhero boyfriend is a target for Luthor and others? I don’t know why I asked that question, so I’m unsure how to answer it. On one hand, she was thinking about breaking up with Clark, while on the other, she recruited Mister Terrific to locate and save Clark, as well as Metropolis, risking her own life in the process.
• How does Clark manage that Superman is a global hero, and not just an American? The Boravia/Jarhanpur conflict highlighted this. In Clark’s mind, Superman belongs to the world, not just one country. By stopping a war, Clark was no longer a neutral player; he had chosen a side. This speaks volumes about his character. Over the years, various storylines have explored the theme of Superman’s identity and role in the world. This culminated in the Pre-52 reboot, where Superman (not Clark Kent) renounced his American citizenship. He realised that as Superman, he was needed to help people everywhere, regardless of their sexuality, religion, or nationality. By renouncing his citizenship, he aimed to avoid being controlled by the U.S. government. Clark knew Superman was more than an American hero; he was a hero to everybody, from the Ivory Coast, Romania, Peru, Iran, Canada, Vietnam, and even New Zealand. James Gunn just reinforced that Superman belongs to the world, and not just one country.
• Can I bring my 10-year-old and 7-year-old boys to the film and not regret it? I wanted to take UMC1 and UMC2 to see it, because my dad took me to Superman IV: The Quest for Peace at the cinema. I wanted to watch Superman first, so I would know what to expect. The first issue was when the kaiju was killed; UMC2 would be EXTREMELY upset with that. He hates that people kill and eat squids, so killing a CGI kaiju would turn him into John Wick. He would have been rooting for the kaiju. The other point was when Luthor murdered the Metropolis native. Because of this, I thought UMC1 would be able to see it, but that wouldn’t be fair to UMC2. However, it was a moot point because they both wanted to see Elio instead.

If you’re a movie fan, then Superman may come off as silly and corny, or even predictable. However, if you’re a comic book fan, then you will love this film because it is very comic book accurate. I enjoyed seeing Clark flying around saving people, and being a dork so much, that I can only offer this praise for the film: I don’t have to see it again, but I want to see it again. I’m starting a new job this week, so after I get paid, I’ll go and see Superman for a second time.

So, should you go and see Superman? If you don’t know who to believe after reading various reviews about the film, whether they are praising or trashing Superman, don’t trust anybody. Go watch it so you can judge yourself. Please tell me your thoughts about it, I would love to know.

¹ I graduated university wearing a black Superman t-shirt underneath my graduation gown, but I also wore Superman cufflinks to my wedding.

And I’m back in the room. My winter break is over, after staring into the cold abyss of a New Zealand winter, and I have emerged with my phalanges still cold. However, there is no time to settle and decry winter’s embrace; no, someone must continue the long struggle of producing inadequate writing for the faceless public, and that burden falls upon my scrawny shoulders.

In my mission to view more comic book movies at the cinema, my next project is not a Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) film; I’m as shocked as you. My last preview/review was in May with Thunderbolts*, but this time, we are headed into the DC Universe (DCU), which is the rebooted and rebranded version of the DC Extended Universe (DCEU).

The movie in question is Superman, which is the first cinematic entry of the DCU’s Chapter One: Gods and Monsters phase.¹ The film’s working title was Superman: Legacy, but “Legacy” was dropped in early 2024, so the title became Superman.

This, of course, can not be confused with 1978’s Superman, starring Christopher Reeve and Gene Hackman. The difference is that the 1978 movie is known as Superman, but technically, it was marketed as Superman: The Movie. Facts matter, ladies and gentlemen, facts matter.

As per tradition, I would have purchased a ticket to an early screening to avoid spoilers, to give myself enough time to write the review, and because I’m a geek. That being the case, I haven’t got a ticket because they don’t go on sale until Tuesday, 8th July, at 12 pm (NZ time). You can bet that I’ll be at the cinema at 12.05 pm to buy a ticket, though! Since it’s the only cinema in town, I may have to look at buying shares in the business because of the amount of money I have spent there.

I have previously discussed Superman in February of this year, and since his introduction in Action Comics #1 in 1938, Superman has entered our lexicon and consciousness, the world over. I’m not going to launch into a speech about who Superman/Clark Kent/Kal-El is, or who they are to me or you; that would take too long, considering this blog post is about his movie, not an analysis of his character.

However, in saying that, Clark means a lot to me. A lot.

As you can guess from the title, Superman heralds the return of Kal-El to the big screen. The film was written and directed by James Gunn, with an estimated budget of US$225 million, which is, to be honest, quite steep by today’s standards. I’m not smart enough to know whether that’s a possible or negative thing.

I’ve seen the teaser trailer and various trailers for the film, and if I’m honest, the teaser trailer was one of the reasons I left my job. Superman inspired me to try to do better. Seriously. That and seeing Krypto, which resulted in the below tweet.

I am also aware of the Pro-Henry Cavill camp, as well as the Pro-Zack Snyder camp, which have been mocking and criticising DC Studios for any shortcomings of Superman, while ignoring any potential positive aspects of the film. This backlash has been ongoing since the announcement that Cavill would not be returning as Superman and Snyder would not be involved in future projects.

Even if Superman earns over $1 billion, wins multiple awards, and achieves a high rating on Rotten Tomatoes, it still won’t be enough for them.

For an introduction to one of my movie previews, this is somewhat subdued. With that in mind, let’s get on with the preview!

Am I looking forward to watching Superman?

As always with this question, the answer is a resounding, YES! Following my stupid commitment to view new comic book movies at the cinema, instead of on a streaming service, watching Superman is a no-brainer.

I’m excited because this is the first time since 2017’s Justice League that we have had Kal-El on the big screen. Yes, I know Henry Cavill also had a cameo in Black Adam, and whatever Nicholas Cage’s cameo was doing in The Flash, but I’m talking about Superman as a main character.

I’m a little biased since I love various superheroes for different reasons; what geek doesn’t? But my first superhero was Superman. As I said before, Superman means a lot to me, and I don’t know if I could ever truly explain or articulate why.

Another reason that I’m looking forward to the movie, as I mentioned before, is that it’s the first cinematic entry of the DCU’s Chapter One: Gods and Monsters phase. We have David Corenswet (Clark Kent/Superman) wearing the cape, Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane, and Nicholas Hoult as everybody’s favourite bald megalomaniac, Lex Luthor.

Rounding out the supporting cast, we have Edi Gathegi (Michael Holt/Mister Terrific), Anthony Carrigan (Rex Mason/Metamorpho), Nathan Fillion (Guy Gardner/Green Lantern), Isabela Merced (Hawkgirl), Skyler Gisondo (Jimmy Olsen), Sara Sampaio (Eve Teschmacher), María Gabriela de Faría (Angela Spica/The Engineer), and Wendell Pierce as Perry White.

Mister Terrific, Metamorpho, and Hawkgirl are some of the most underrated characters in DC’s toybox, so it will be great to see them saving lives and kicking arse. As for Guy Gardner, I hope Nathan Fillion has understood the assignment, because Guy’s infamous haircut is an awesome start.

I have high hopes for the DCU to be a more streamlined version of the DCEU.

The final reason I’m pumped for the movie is Krypto. He debuted in Adventure Comics #210 (March 1955), and although he’s starred in various animated series and films before, along with the lead role in DC League of Super-Pets, and live-action appearances in Titans and Superman & Lois, Superman is his first live-action film appearance. ²

I would often joke about Indy looking like Krypto, now Krypto looks like him. I may cry watching Clark’s interactions with Krypto, but I’ll be ok. Indy was a good boy, just like Krypto.

What is the movie about?

According to DC.com, the premise is this:

“Superman,” DC Studios’ first feature film to hit the big screen, is set to soar into theaters worldwide this summer from Warner Bros. Pictures. In his signature style, James Gunn takes on the original superhero in the newly imagined DC universe with a singular blend of epic action, humor and heart, delivering a Superman who’s driven by compassion and an inherent belief in the goodness of humankind.

On my local cinema’s website, it states:

Superman attempts to balance his Kryptonian heritage with his human upbringing in this DC superhero film from James Gunn.

What can we expect?

The running time is 130 minutes, so pace yourself while drinking, since you don’t want to run off to the toilet while an epic fight is happening! I want to take UMC1 and UMC2 to see it, but since the rating is M, I have to watch it first to determine whether it’s alright for them. Don’t let me down, James, don’t let me down.

Based on what I understand about the film and the overall impressions of the DCU, superheroes are already an established part of this world. As a result, we may or may not see any origin stories. Instead of focusing on how citizens of the DCU come to accept super-powered humans and aliens, the film will likely explore how they co-exist with them and the consequences of this co-existence. Maybe.

I can imagine that we’ll see several fights, Luthor’s monologues, Clark’s relationships with Lois, Perry, and Jimmy, as well as the relationships between Superman, Mr Terrific, Guy Gardner, Hawkgirl, and Metamorpho. There needs to be examples of Clark saving a lot of people, but also inspiring people to be better. The message needs to be about hope. Also, the shenanigans that go with training a super-powered dog.

I know it’s a huge amount of pressure, but if the DCU has any real chance of succeeding, Superman not only has to generate a vast amount of money, but it also needs to win over critics and fans. However, if anyone at DC can knock the first ball out of the park, not counting Martian Manhunter, then it’s Superman.

Do I have concerns?

I always have concerns with movies like this, and Superman will be no different. Since this is the first cinematic entry in the DCU, they need to stick the landing with this, especially with a beloved character like Superman.

Here are some of my questions:

• Will the plot make sense, or will it be riddled with holes?
• Will any of the other superheroes be meeting Superman for the first time?
• How long have Clark and Lois been a couple?
• Will there be references to other superheroes?
• With the inclusion of several superheroes, will Superman be a supporting cast member in his own movie?
• Will adding Krypto turn the movie into a spoof or comedy?
• How will Krypto be introduced?
• What is Lois’ relationship with Krypto?
• Do Clark and Lois live with each other?
• Will there be a Supergirl cameo or reference?
• Will Luthor be a pawn for another villain, or is he the one in control?
• How many different villains will there be in the film?
• How will Superman inspire the audience?
• Will David Corenswet’s portrayal of Clark Kent be Pre-Crisis or Post-Crisis Clark?
• Does Krypto survive?
• How does Lois cope knowing her superhero boyfriend is a target for Luthor and others?
• How does Clark manage that Superman is a global hero, and not just an American?
• Can I bring my 10-year-old and 7-year-old boys to the film and not regret it?

There are probably more Kryptonian questions to ask, but I’m out of time and beauty sleep.

That wraps it up for me here, as the only thing left to do is to buy a ticket when they go on sale tomorrow. I’ll wear one of my two Superman t-shirts to the movie, because, well, how can I not?

Before I go, I mentioned this in a previous blog, but I would like to reinforce it. The world is very dark at the moment, but it’s not all bad. There are slivers of hope and light. Keep your head above water and remember to be kind. Your words and actions can help lift people up. Hang in there.

¹ I think Creature Commandos was the first true entry in Chapter One: Gods and Monsters, but that was a television series. Also, the show was a lot better than I thought it would be. It was insane, but fun.

2 Krypto is one of my favourite unlockable characters to use in Lego Batman 3: Beyond Gotham.
