I know some of the Teeming Millions are already aware of this site (in fact, I think it was a link established in a previous thread that led me to it in the first place), but I love this site so much, I just had to start a seperate thread about it: [Superdickery.com](http://www.superdickery.com/), a collection of the worst comic book covers / panels ever. The site started as a spinoff of a National Lampoon feature (“Superman is a dick”) citing graphic evidence of the Man of Steel’s all-around obnoxious behavior. It grew to include other regular features on subjects such as the homoerotic subtext behind Batman & Robin, and Wonder Woman’s lesbian & kinky predilections. My personal favorite covers / panels are: [the mysterious golden showers](http://www.superdickery.com/seduction/27.html), [Superman vs. gay cowboy](http://www.superdickery.com/seduction/12.html), and [Lois Lane’s head in a box](http://www.superdickery.com/other/1.html). ---

What good can it be? Under **Stupor-Powers** they don’t even list Wonder Woman’s ability to Run up a Glass Wall Thread a Needle Underwater And they don’t mentiobn the Super Woman’s Intuition Superboy gets when he gets transformed into a girl! ---

And I still say Seanbaby’s Super Friends site (which is likely not safe for work) is the hands-down best. ---

A little too much Superman. I’m sure that other comics have their fair share of stupid covers. ---

If you read the site history you’ll notice it all started out by noticing what a dick Superman is. Having fairly well mined out the super-dickery of the man of steel, the site now seems to be branching out to other stupor heroes. Give’em time … And if you’ve got a few helpful hints, you might oughta drop a line. There’s an email address listed on the site for just such a purpose. :: cough :: CalMeacham :: cough :: ---

I’m surprised he doesn’t have the famous “Captain America, I command you to WANK!” panel up yet. Just a matter of time, I suppose. –Cliffy ---

Yeah, I like to see that too. At least describe what it’s supposed to portray, I cannot fathom a non-dirty scenario where somebody would say that! ---

Could someone explain to this non-comic reader why Superman is such a dick on those covers? I always thought Superman was a good guy. I actually thought those were spoof covers at first. If this is too much of a hijack of this thread, let me know and I’ll start a new one. ---

Sales. Someone walks past the rack of comics in the drug store, see’s Superman burning a gift from Jimmy, or holding a dead Lois in his arms, claiming he killed her, thinks ‘what the hell?’ and picks up the book to find out why Superman is being a dick on the cover. ---

Superman Framing Jimmy Olsen? That can’t be! I must buy this issue to find out how it happens.” Of course, the cover often turns out to be misleading… [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/superdickery-com-best-comic-book-site-ever/304106.md?page=2)
