Oh, no, back when Lex Luthor was the president, he made it legal for Superman to be used in fictional works, because he’s a historical figure, and part of the public domain.

Makes sense! Still weird what people do with him though on Archive of our Own…

Let me ask you guys this – what’s worse: Superman throwing the car you’re still making payments on at the giant robot that was attacking Main Street, or Superman throwing said car and missing?

Missing 100%.

I mean Lex is right! Everyone’s always saying “Superman’s a hero for all!”

Tell that to the people living on the streets because we have to pay for the things Superman broke!

Guys- I was just pulling a load from the dryer when what I thought was just normal static electrcity charging through my clothes turned out to be a REAL HUMAN BEING. When I dumped the clothes out on my bed to fold them the snap crackle and pop of the static was louder than usual and then BAM- there was a woman with bone white skin and blue hair dressed in a leotard with a lightning bolt down the front and some spiffy thigh high boots standing right in front of me. All she said was " ‘Sup." and then just like that she vanished. Her voice sounded really familiar tho, kinda’ like Lori Petty from Point Break. Weird.

That might’ve been my sister. She’s in this goth magician phase. I’ll yell at her later

This morning at Jurgens Park there were TWO sets of fake Jor-El and Laras that showed up. They argued with each other and then flew off before Superman arrived.

As an authentic citizen of Metropolis, I don’t understand why people are always knocking LexCorp. Sure, they can be a bit heavy-handed, but at least they’re human. Everything about them is human. This message was written by a human. Give your moneys to LexCorp now.

This automated message has been provided by LexCorp. LexCorp is not responsible for any injury/death/illegal experiments/tragic fate that occur to you or your loved ones as a result of giving money to LexCorp.
