Let's begin at the end, as Batman and Superman have put down another fiendish plan by Lex Luthor.
It's the next day, and by gum, Clark Kent wants a hot dog!
Ah, but fortunately...
Now, this is the kind of Batman v Superman I can get behind--stupid practical jokes and public punking!!
You know, it's too bad that kid fell, because I really want to know what Batman's endgame was with the $72 hot dog bit. Would he have relented, and winked, and let Clark know it was a joke? Would he have continued to embarrass Clark, and make him pay lest the people of Metropolis thought he was a skinflint? What the hell would he have done with the money if Clark paid?
From Superman Annual #9 (1983)
Man, Alex Toth can do no wrong...
ReplyDeleteAgree about Toth, but in 1983 they were still writing "at's-a-righta-Joe" fake Italian accents?
