Juvenile Superman questions

I understand that this was the first draft of how they were going to write Hal Jordan out of the DCU.

Superman presumably has super sphincter control.

Superman

shaves with precision

searing stubble

with heat vision

–burna shave

These and other burning questions are addressed in Larry Niven’s “Man of Steel, woman of Kleenex.”

Juvenile Super ejaculate rocketing off at near-light speed comes (:eek:) to mind!

That’s the link in Post #3.

Sorry. My bad. :o

Brilliant.

What if Superman farts, man? Would he choke everyone in the room?

Yup. Well, it happened that way in a Wonder Warthog underground comic strip; and in MAD parody he knocked everyone out with his superbad breath.

Perhaps we have stumbled upon the answer to the worlds energy problems:

I give you “Supernatural Gas!”

Let’s just hope Superman is a big fan of baked beans…:slight_smile:

Wasn’t there some Elseworld comic where Superman runs a giant dynamo to power America and/or the world? Or was that a Superman expy in another comic?

In The Dark Knight Returns by Frank Miller, the powers that be have the Flash running on a treadmill to power the USA. I haven’t read all the Elseworlds, so maybe there too.

Maybe you were thinking of this.

Actually yeah, I think I was thinking of that. Am I ready for the weekend or what?

Actually, he did! He came back as the Hate Monger, dressed in a purplish version of a KKK cloak/hood and fought the Fantastic Four in the 60’s.

He was stuck in the Cosmic Cube for a while as well. Comic writers have gotten a lot of mileage out of Hitler.

I was listening to talk radio today when this subject came up amongst the host and his guests. One of the guests proposed the Hancock method: scratches the whiskers off with his fingernails.

Which, of course, prompted the question: how does Hancock trim his nails?

So, coming back around: Marvel’s super-powered hero may have failed to kill Hitler in his bunker, but IIRC it’s canon that DC’s Unknown Soldier iced the guy just fine.

He’s a chronic nail-biter?

Works for his fingernails, but what about his toenails!? :eek:

I can’t believe I’m the first to mention ye old classic Man of Steel, Woman of Kleenex. :wink:

You’re not. :wink:

Not even the second.
