@achewood I haven't had a haircut since July. I'm hoping to, "wait it out."

This is fascinating.  Superman is kind of thuggish.  He also has a sloping brow that makes him look like a neanderthal.

That was excellent.  I wish they'd have Superman putting the fear of g-d into current corrupt politicians.  Superman all running along electric wires with Donald Rumsfeld.

I just re-read the story, it's been a few years.  Oh yeah thuggish might be the right word, but I think those creeps got off easy.  Ol' Clark just had his balls handed to him by that cold hearted bitch Lois Lane.  So I say he acted with restraint.

I can't believe I read every page. Thank goodness they recognized the one quality story they had and dumped the rest. "Sticky Mitts Johnson" -- what the ...? &c.

Also, DAILY STAR. And "attendants," not "adoptive parents."

I'm not entirely sure I can blame him. Also, I like how the governor is so certain he's being menaced by a madman, mostly because he's actually right -- it's a mark of something that we today can accept the idea of a square-jawed guy in a silly costume marching into the governor's mansion to enforce justice.

Are you talking about the guy on his hands and knees gawkin' or the guy holding his head like it's gonna fall off?  'Cause they're both pretty cool.

I like the guy running away like a bitch. Ol Supe' laid a double-nut beatdown on the baddies in those early days.
