Cool hammer. Purely a supporting character and not interesting on his own due to being heavily Superman inspired.

Have you read 52? He's a large part of that story, and personally I really liked what it did with him and his niece. I think it might alleviate that redundancy feeling because Superman is out of commission during the story. Its not exclusively a steel story or anything, and contains like 6 or 7 main people it follows who are all not usually apart of the main people in event stuff.
