* CrapsackWorld: The initial assessment of the ''New 52'' Earth from the Kents is that this is a very doubtful, suspicious, and edgy world with little trust given towards the superheroes that live in it, which is another reason Clark has needed to be more stealthy in his endeavors. May also count as LeaningOnTheFourthWall as the description Lois gives echoes the complaints fans have had about the direction of the ''New 52''.
