Comments for The Least Useful Superpower

I wrote the first half of this a while back, but I was stalled on the ending. I finally figured out yesterday how to wrap it up successfully.

Super-ventriloquism is a legitimate power that Superman had in the comics from the late '50s to the early '70s. He used it all the time. This story came about when I was wondering what if L&C Clark had the power but just never mentioned it. What would he use it for?


"It is a remarkable dichotomy. In many ways, Clark is the most human of us all. Then...he shoots fire from the skies, and it is difficult not to think of him as a god. And how fortunate we all are that it does not occur to him." -Batman (in Superman/Batman #3 by Jeph Loeb)
