I love the story line and the character is the besttttttt can’t wait for the next update!

I wish I’d checked this out earlier, this is great!

Interesting and (well enough written in my opinion) a very good story. I like it, I like it a lot! It seems to be meshing the realities quite well, and I can hardly wait (but I will) to see where it all goes. I do know this, when someone who is not the creator of a character, writes about them, it is to have them do something that the creator doesn't want to or didn't think of. I know that I always think of my favorite characters doing things, I have never read of in books or seen them doing in movies. I think it is fantastic that others (here in "FanFiction") are actually writing their stories of what they want them to do in a "What If" world. For those who complain that the characters would not do this or that, forget them. You need to write this first for yourself, and then for the rest of us who do enjoy your take on what just might, could, should, would and probability (if a frog had wings, his ass wouldn't bump the ground nearly so often) can happen. I do know this as well, I am enjoying it and will follow it as long as you will write it. Also, do NOT feel pushed to post, sometimes the words and thoughts just flow and sometimes you have to cogitate for a bit. Just learn to let them grow at their own pace and those of us who appreciate them will be here to read them when they are posted.

Thank you so much for sharing.

Interesting start to what promises to be a good story. I have read quite a number of FanFiction stories, including crossovers, and most have been good. It looks as if it will likely take a few chapters to get all your main characters and store line fleshed out, but with the hints provided I like where I see this going.

Thanks for sharing!

My good sir, given the infrequent updates of your other fics, and having only been recommended 12 steps, I'd once thought you were a one hit wonder with a list of past failures.

This is resolutely, ABSOLUTELY NOT the case. You have a real talent. And, aside from, perhaps, pacing of power scaling/escalation, both this AND The Hancock Initiative are exceptional and should be continued post-haste.

Honestly, I LOVE reading 12 steps, but it feels like it's starting to slow down since it's so long in the tooth, already. These particular two fics would be a welcomed refresher as we all settle in and amp up for the final few acts of Michael's story in 12 steps post ascension.

In any case, whatever story it is, I can hardly wait for the next chapter! ((Also, I'll provide deeper thoughts than basic praise in my review of the next chapter or this fic, I prommiiissseeee!))

Very much enjoyed this story. I'm particularly looking forward to when he makes his debut with the Corps as well as Oas guardians. Raising kiddies is particularly interesting. he chose children that can both love, and defend their home. and even better that he cares about them, because it just makes for an interesting twist if anyone tries to play the 'he doesn't care' card. because if he didn't care why take all of them. why keep them after he had the genetic material he wanted? and they all know he could have just lied to get one of them, done what he needed to, and returned the kid with a "didn't work out" note. instead he raises them all? no. it's their home, and i pity whoever tries to take it from 12 kryptonians under a yellow (and blue?) sun.
the only gripe i have is overly anthropomorphizeing the ring. turning it into a person that actuay stops him, can refuse to be used. that's to far. i was expected something like a female jarvis. slightly snarky with a sarcastic back. but absolutely loyal, and it would certainly explain why things are a bad idea, actually punching him is again overly anthropomorphizeing the ring. actually making the ring drinking problem joke would be funny if matt was the one thinking it. like he thought it had the tone like someone that needed a drink. instead you made it so the ring actually wanted an alcoholic beverage, which overstrains credulity.
overall excellent. skip the over-anthropomorphizing and keep the rest coming!

Damn, this was a good chapter too, I really can't wait for the next update, I came over because I liked some of your other stories and wanted to see what else you got, in the end, I really hope you update your stories! and really hope your healthy! if you are, the stay healthy!

This was a pretty awesome chapter...

I like this fic, but i think this is need character interaction more with the kids and the ring...
Just curious, can he just use the speed force formula if he wanted?
And there's the life equation and anti life equation.

Curious where this one will go :)

I'm glad you got back to writing this. I do love his power ups and I'm glad he's slowly making it more targeted as he goes along. Sure, he won't go for every thing but some bits should make him really well rounded.

I feel weird knowing he will part ways with the ring which has been his companion for so long. You're right that this 2nd chap didn't have that great impact like the 1st but remember, the 1st was only a one shot.

This one opened the road for more developments than the other where we were left to fill the premise in our minds.

I like it please continue
