Man of Steel, Woman of Kleenex
Posted: 12 Jul 2006 12:07 PM
Here is a cautionary tale by Larry Niven. I can't imagine why Bryan Singer didn't read this!

It's an older piece of work, but still very funny.

Thanks Mykal, really thanks mate, a day at the beach just ain't going to seem the same now, not only do we have Jaws in the water, we now have to watch out for giant sized super sperm trying to have it off with our beach toys... lovely.

Hmm, i probably should have warned people that this article is somewhat graphic and to read at your own risk.

That is all.

Uhhhh.... OKAY!

There were some pretty big discrepancies, and it was VERY assumptive. I say we try it out to prove him wrong.

Just remember that this was written in 1969, so alot of the assumptions about Superman are based on the Silver Age Superman. Most of that stuff, like the different colors of Kryptonite, was eliminated during the Crisis of Infinate Earths. I do remember the red kryptonite from the old Super Friends show, though.

Smallville, eat your heart out.
