Marcus, that's an excellent idea! Let them try...
Although, on second thought, Superman could take Linda flying, couldn't he? Maybe Ben will turn up on her radar. Anyway, shouldn't Ben be able to break free by now? He should have developed some super strength and invulnerability these days - unless he's held where the sun doesn't reach.
@Artemis: Whew, is everybody posting astronomical pics these days? :p
Anyway, the story was brilliant as always.
Can't wait to see how this continues.
