The Death of Superman Page #3

---

Incredible!

That means it's even

stronger than you, Victor.

Always got an encouraging

word, huh, Dad?

You'll need some very sophisticated

resources to produce an alloy like this.

The S.T.A.R. Labs could do it, but

it sure didn't come from here.

Maybe Wayne Tech. Or even...

Of course. Cyborg,

we'll catch up later.

Thank you both for

your time and expertise.

Your welcome, Superman.

I appreciate you bringing

me in on this, son.

It's been a long time.

Yeah, I know.

Sorry about that.

Dr. Irons, you good?

Better than ever, Victor.

Lose something, Lex?

I'm sorry. What are we blaming

me for now, Superman?

Those weapons

this morning.

They're based

on alien technology,

but clearly modified

for Intergang here on Earth.

Ooh, that sounds scary.

But as you can see, I spend my days under

house arrest, wearing this crude leash.

I've added a little dash

of Kryptonite green.

Don't worry, it's not real.

Oh, come on.

Intergang has connections all over

the planet. It could be anyone.

We'll get to

the bottom of it, Lex.

And when we do, I'll be back.

You know something

I don't know?

Only that this city's never going

to love you just for hating me.

But Senator, the rents on

those slums were raised 200%.

As the newly disclosed owner, you

must have some kind of a comment.

- I guess not.

- Incoming.

I heard something juicy

and I had to share.

Doesn't, Daily Planet Live

go on the air in two minutes?

Mmm-mmm. I'm not on

until the second segment.

I'm sure it could wait.

So you're meeting

the parents?

Oh, God, make it stop.

Lois, you're great.

I respect you.

I wanted to be you until

I found out on camera

there's more than digging

through government garbage.

- Who told you anyway?

- You did, just now.

I had a suspicion something was up when

you stopped calling him "Smallville."

I did?

Sweetie, the women here notice

everything about tall, handsome men.

And the only competition in

this place is Steve Lombard,

and he makes me feel

like I need to shower.

Hello ladies, did someone

mention the Stevenator?

Yes, I think it was

human resources.

You see my point?

Hey!

Listen, Cat, Clark and I are

just good friends right now.

You wanna spread it around

the office? Have at it.

- Just let me get back to work, okay?

- Okay, okay.

Just be careful.

You always said Clark seemed different

like he's got a wall around him.

It's like he doesn't want anyone to

get too close, you know what I mean?

Yeah, I guess I do.

We need you

on set, Miss Grant.

That's my cue. See ya.

Dropped something?

As your long-suffering,

devoted wife,

I'm used to your butter

fingers at home

but, Hank, you're setting

a bad example for the others.
