The end of the Clark Kent/Lois Lane marriage

Excuse me while I sigh sadly, like Will Farrell as Alex Trebek having to introduce Sean Connery yet again.

Why? Why?! Because Dan DiDio hates you, that's why.



“Let’s just say it's being reexamined,” says Didio, who oversees the 77-year-old comic book company, which relaunches all of its titles with 52 new #1 issues in September, “because it's something that I think is something that is so valuable to the character's story that you really want to explore all facets of it. Not just as it exists currently.”

The marriage of the leading couple of superhero-dom was initially launched as a tie-in to the planned TV nuptials of the characters in the ABC series “Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman” in 1996 and proved popular with fans who found it fresh take on the age-old love triangle between Lois, Superman and his own alter ego, Clark Kent. But it may be time to redefine their romance once again.


You have to admit, they did rush everything into one big wedding album to time it with "Lois & Clark." Maybe they want to try "A to B to C" again at their own pace. Also, the mainstream media should know that Lois Lane has known Clark's secret since 1991.

Oh, and Dan DiDio hates you. And me. And everyone that reads DC Comics.



This page from ACTION COMICS #775 isn't the best example of how Lois and Clark love each other so much it is downright irritating, but I was in a hurry.

Uh...the way I read it, they're not confirming the end of the marriage at all. As a matter of fact, it more or less says that they're going to try to do something different with the marriage to make it more fresh.

Lois and Clark with optional Lana and Bruce if either/both happen to be town? Heck, throw in Jimmy for variety every now and again

That girl sure did love that horse.

And of course Grayson, when they're in a bondage mood.

Lois is always the top.
