Default Today's Kryptonian rant

Brian's news item today about Kryptonians being assholes seems to be on the mark, besides the "exception" of Jor-El and Kal-El. But I think that deep down, all of them are assholes at some point or another, even Superman. There's plenty of evidence of Superman being a total jerk at different stages of his career. It helps support Brian's theory even more: that Kryptonians are inherently assholes.

Example:

I went to the thread in question, and GOOD GOD those were bad. I could only make it to the fifth page. WTF was DC thinking?!

I love that thread and I'm going to end up going through every single page.

I never knew how much of a dick Superman was.

Well I'm looking at the "12 cent" tag and wondering exactly what crackpot drew/made them. Been ages since comics were 12 cents

Over at I-Mockery they have a semi-regular feature now looking at Superman comic covers. They already covered (ow!) Jimmy Olsen and Lois Lane.

I don't know, and I fear the truth will be a disappointment after the awesome premise. Gotta love how Superman sounds like he's giving Jimmy a valid reason for why he has to marry them, but then if you read his argument over again, you realize he's just going "Sorry, Jimmy, but I'm fucking doing this."

*remembers reading through that thread in November*

Superman is a dick, but so is Batman in some of these:
http://www.comics.org/graphics/cover.../216_4_186.jpg
http://www.comics.org/graphics/cover.../216_4_097.jpg
http://www.comics.org/graphics/cover.../216_4_054.jpg
http://www.comics.org/graphics/cover...1296_4_135.jpg
http://www.comics.org/graphics/cover...1027_4_115.jpg
http://www.comics.org/graphics/cover...1027_4_127.jpg

Apparently there was a lot of prank playing and witchcraft involved in the silver age of comics.

EDIT: I also love how the Jimmy Olsen covers proudly proclaim that he's Superman's Pal, yet they're always being dicks to each other, or trying to kill each other outright (when Jimmy is the murderer, he always gets some kind of special, I-can-kill-Superman-now power)

I actually own this one:


And yes, it's all about Superman being a dick. He let's Lois get in increasingly embarassing and dangerous situations as she gets younger and younger, just to teacher her the "curiosity killed the cat" lesson.

Now the real question is: where the hell did I get this?

EDIT
Also own this one.


...Yeah... he's a dick.

Guys, We think you've got it all wrong. Superman isn't the dick, its his 'pal' Olsen.


Seriously dude, ask the Man of Steel what size he is before throwing your money at JCPenny.


NOT THE HELMET OF HATE! YOU BASTARD!!! Gotta love that horn comment.


Dude, you NEVER have a chance once Supes gets his marble on.
