NOTE FROM JENNIFER:
The family of Superman co-creator Jerry
Siegel won some complicated legal
thingamajiggy which we think basically
means they get money (SCORE) — and they
*might* own the character outright in
just a few short years! So what
nefarious (or not-farious) things might
they be plotting for Big Blue?


The Top 7 Siegel
Family’s Plans for Superman


7> Red pants part of costume now boxers instead of briefs.

6> A fully licensed line of vehicle decals, t-shirts, baseball caps, posters, limited edition prints and more — all featuring a Calvin-esque image of Superman peeing on the DC Comics logo.

5> He’s dumping that klutzy shiksa Lois Lane for a nice Jewish girl.

4> A haircut. That spit-curl has been driving them *NUTS!*

3> Superman no longer allowed to participate in any stories with the word “crisis” in the title.

2> Give him to Joe Quesada! Just to make DC cry.

and the Number 1 Siegel Family’s Plan for Superman…

1> “…because even a Kryptonian has to worry about colon cancer.”
