I wish golden age Superman would destroy the cars in my neighbourhood when the car alarms go off late at night.

Also always loved the guy in the lower left corner who is just freaking out about what is going on.

I do love that guy. :-)

[zapbiffpow]

Yeah, me too!

I think they named that guy - can't place the exact name, but it was in that infamous issue of Superman/Batman where Starro gives those cupcakes to Superman.

[grazzt]

Infamous!? "Fuck you" cupcakes are the best thing ever!

...

I've started handing them out at work.

[zapbiffpow]

Ah, no, I didn't mean 'infamous' as derogatory! I meant it like, uh, bacon was infamous.
Crap, I had better examples.

P.S. Update! I think the dude in the corner's name was Rick Radomski, of Radomski Hardware.

[superfangirl1]

After looking up that name on google. You are correct. :)

[zapbiffpow]

Yes! Hooray for research!

[pteppic]

Superman appears to be destroying property for no "good" reason. Ok?

[cainofdreaming]

If there's be more people with super-hearing there'd be lot less neighbours who blast their speakers at max at one am. So I'm totally supportive of this.
