Scans: Man of Steel Annual #3

Aug 04, 2007 19:59

I mentioned this yesterday when I posted the first chapter of my new WIP "The Light and The Silence" and promised scans of. It's an Elseworlds Superman story, but with additional Batman. Sadly, it is also from the nineties ( Read more... )

I'm getting a very strong Movie!Wolverine vibe from this Lex. But that just might be from beard-having, cigar smoking, and alcohol drinking. Where does he keep that chair and glass?

And it's nice to see that Jor-El and his dickish plans to make Clark do what he wants isn't something that was original to Smallville.

I don't think this Lex ever parts with his glass. He keeps it nearby, probably in his jetpack ;) The Wolverine vibe is the strongest in that pic where he leans against the doorjamb at the Kents'!

*loves crazy Elseworlds*

*but really can't deal with Lex and all that hair* That's what keeps me enjoying Superman comics from the era of "Lex is a clone of himself". I like mullet!Superman more than I do hair-having!Lex.

I could deal with hairy!Lex if it wasn't for the beard. Red beards never look good. (If his hair wasn't, like, fire-engine red, one could imagine him to look a bit like Lionel, to which I wouldn't object.)

I have to agree: the facial hair is definitely the worst part. Maybe Kal-El/Superman could sneakily apply some kind of high-tech permanent hair-remover while Lex is asleep in his hospital bed, if only because Lois has Kal used to kissing a partner with a smooth face, and he's in the mood to give Lex a try....

No, I imagine it goes like this:

Because Lex used kryptonite to beat up Clark, fate "punishes" him and he looses all his hair while in hospital. Actually, Lex takes this with some amount of humor, but he immediately sees the potential for making Kal feel guilty and makes a big deal of it - "If you had not insisted on genocide, I would not be permantly disfigured!" Guilt-ridden, Kal tries to make up for it by trying to convince Lex that bald is beautiful. Lex continues his self-piteous charade - "I don't need your pity!" - until, desperate to proof that he means it - Kal sleeps with him.

Lois calls both of them on their bullshit and they have a happy threesome.

That could be so cute! *loves on guilty Kal and sneaky Lex* Any chance you might write it...?
