In Other News ...

Of course, we're going to see the new Superman movie on opening night.  But cast your memories back a couple of decades ... 

Back in 2006, Superman Returns was the "new" Superman movie.  While there was a lot of good in it, there was just too much creepy x-ray spying and other stuff going on.  However ...

Somehow our local rag heard about my status as a big Superman fan.  I took a reporter and a photog on a tour of the Fortress of Markitude and ended up on the front page!

Above is the article as scanned from the June 28, 2006 Oklahoman.  Following are pix taken for the article.

Here I am showing off some issues in the Comics Closet.

This is a copy of Superman #158, which introduced (among other things) Nightwing and Flame Bird.

The above photo WAS NOT in the article, but it's me in 1963 with the same issue of Superman #158, when it was new.

Here I am with an (empty) box of wonderful Superman processed cheese food!

Here's a separate photo of the box, which can be studied in depth here.

See you at the movies!
