Superman could sit down with Lois and explain the purpose of his dual identity, talk about how his secret must remain safe, and ask for her help(There was an unpublished Seigel story from the 40s where they were trapped in a cave and he told her he was Superman and busted them out; she agreed to keep his secret and help out with excuses for Clark). <BR/><BR/>Instead, Superman decides on an elaborate ruse that can never work, and hinges on the fact that Lois will soon be too pissed off to care what actually happened. I blame Batman for this scheme, and I kinda wonder what Superman would have done if Batman hadn't been there wanting to swap outfits. Do you think Superman would have made Jimmy pose as Superman?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31586138.post-78712529922195603632007-10-23T21:33:00.000-03:002007-10-23T21:33:00.000-03:00I know that Silver Age Superman is a dick and all,...I know that Silver Age Superman is a dick and all, but honestly, with friends like these, who wouldn't be? His would-be girlfriend and so-called pal spend all their free time trying to reveal his secret identity to the world for no discernible reason! That's the real dick move if you ask me. It's like they want to be killed by revenge-seeking enemies.Bill D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/18013121134005443309noreply@blogger.com
