Attention you Friday Night Fight lovers that may be a tad bit on the younger side: did you know that Superman used to be cool, and popular?
No, really!!
Let's journey back a bit. A Darkseid-built, Morgan Edge-controlled robot of destruction is, well, destructing the heck out of Metropolis.
Fortunately, a certain someone has just returned from a sojourn in space:
POW!!!!
But wait--here's the unusual part:
Wait--the citizens love Superman?!? They cheer super-heroes?!? And he's not brooding? What poor, benighted universe is this??
Ah, but Turmoil, the killing machine, isn't quite done yet:
YOWZA!!
Spacebooger is concerned that this type of rough-housing may set a bad example for his younglings.
George Perez (story and breakdowns) and Brett Breeding (finished art) completely forgot to take away the red trunks and make the guy emo in Action Comics #643 (1989)
Now, the time has come for you to vote. And if you like a world where people aren't concerned that a hero "wears his underwear on the outside," then maybe you should rewards this fight. So vote, dagnabbit!!
Huzzah!
