[Charissa, That's Ms. Obnoxious Twat to You.]

Check out these awesome comics from back in the day:

Some of my favorite styles right there.

Midland will be the first dual-purpose commercial nuclear plant. Not only will it generate electricity for the Michigan power pool, it also will deliver large quantities of process steam for industrial use in the giant Dow Chemical Company Plant at Midland.

Midland certainly sounds like paradise.

It seems that one of the characters in the comic is Clark Kent. Here is Clark in his first appearance:

Cyril, that's not Clark Kent. That's Superman. Unless you're saying they're the same...hmmm.

[Félix]

Doh!

[Jackie "the Librarian", Cool Star Trek Nerd]

No no no!!! Clark Kent wears GLASSES. Superman does not. No WAY can they be the same person.

Think about it: Have you ever seen someone who wears glasses try to function without them? Squinting and groping around trying to find them... Some superhero THAT would be!

[Félix]

Thanks for setting my mind at ease, Jackie. Whew!

[Rusty]

I've always suspected that Jimmy Olsen is Superman. And it checks out - NO GLASSES.

[Charissa, That's Ms. Obnoxious Twat to You.]

Hey, I don't wear glasses, am I Superman as well?

[Rusty]

Nice try, Char. I don’t think Superman would so careless as to out himself on the internets. Or would he/she………

Come to think of it – I’ve never seen you two together.

[Charissa, That's Ms. Obnoxious Twat to You.]

wouldn't it be just like Superman me to disguise himself myself as a woman?

[Félix]

Stupid! Brilliant!

[Félix]

Wait a minute. I have to look in the mirror and ask myself.

[Félix]

Now this is living.

[Félix]

What was that?

[Charissa, That's Ms. Obnoxious Twat to You.]

I think a naked BunWat just ran through the room.

[Félix]

Or was it ... Superman?

[Charissa, That's Ms. Obnoxious Twat to You.]

I didn't notice any glasses.

[Félix]

Well. I guess that proves it.

[Charissa, That's Ms. Obnoxious Twat to You.]
