I am spectacularly PC and left wing and an overly sensitive liberal type who will cry at the drop of a hat.
As evidenced by the fact that I did on the walk to the station this morning listening to a documentary about the US Dakota War and the Dakota Indians walking back into Minesotta after being officially unbanned on the 150th anniversary.

Yup, I agree, that doesn't sound like much to cry about.

Much more interestingly
what did you think of the New Krypton stuff? Been reading it recently, excellent stuff so far.

Nope. not read that one.
I'm not a massive Superman afficianado really. I'm reading the current run, but don't have any real background knowledge.

Batman, on the other hand...

Ah sorry I thought you were a DC completist
Am reading Kevin Smith's "Cacophony" at the minute. Well I say reading, occasionally picking up in between slavishly devouring "Preacher" would be more accurate.

I have the full first 12 issues of the New 52 and a fairly extensive collection going back
but it has a big Superman sized hole in it.

Cacophony is good. And Preacher is amazing. The first full run of anything I ever read and still one of my favourites. It is entirely the fault of Jesse and Cassidy that I spend as much as I do these days.

Preacher is just about my favourite full run ever
Which is a little unfair - one can hardly expect X-Men to sustain that sort of level of quality over 40 years. Joss Whedon's Astonishing X-Men series from 2004/5 is the best Marvel output I've ever read.

I'd go with Y: The Last Man (which is something else that made me cry, actually) or Transmetropolitan. But yeah, Preacher is up there.

Just got started on Transmetropolitan, first compendium was excellent
Y is on the list
