I've run into so much Quitely art from The Invisibles to The Authority to We3 to All-Star Superman that I think I've finally started to appreciate his evolution. Millar and Quitely ruined The Authority for me (though I think Millar deserves most of the credit), but We3's focus on its animal protagonists emphasized his strengths in storytelling and de-emphasized his main weakness -- that being the human face. His static images conveyed an impressive amount of motion and action in layouts that just boggle the mind. But I don't blame anyone for not getting into his work. He's still very much an acquired taste.
And the Super-Lois bit I just took as a pastiche of the Silver-Age Lois/Superdickery that was so common between those two. In the comic it's jarring, true, but in the movie, even more so.
