How did I miss this thread before? I read this story when it first was put up, and I thought I left comments on it. Weird. Well, here's my feedback. I hope I remember the details correctly...

I loved your story as well. I always thought that with Superman's powers being what they are, it would be so much easier to use them for destruction/conquering than helping humanity. But even in this story, where Superman does take over the world, he's still Clark at his core. *Trying* to help, even if he's being hurt and stubborn and going about it completely wrong.

And how valiant of Lucy to stand up to him--some real Lane genes at work! And how it must hurt Superman to see her, so much like her sister, dressed in *that* dress. His love for Lois shines through--he can't bring himself to use his own laws to stop her. And here we thought Supe's greatest threat was colored green!
