Too funny! Love it!

Poor Cat, she should have put everything together before saying anything to Lois.

Hmm, just thought of something, what if Clark shows up to the party wearing a different costume?

Very, very funny little vignette. And I have to second Morgana's question, what if Clark shows up in a different costume? I mean, there's no reason for him to wear the costume under his suit instead of keeping it in a bag, is there? Unless, well, he *is* Superman.

Of course, Perry might have ordered him to wear just that costume, in which case I'd still like a sequel.

Oh, and what will Cat's costume be? Catwoman? (Pun intended.)

clap Very enjoyable! So funny that the only reason that Cat thought that Lois is WW is because of what she found in Lois's gym bag. ("Oh, those are just my workout clothes!" says Lois, wink, wink, nudge, nudge.) Come on, Cat, how about verifying the facts independently.

I'd also like to see a sequel, but I'm sure that Clark could easily change his mind 'at the last second' as to what he was going to wear to the party. The confrontation between Lois or Cat with Clark why he didn't come in his Superman costume would worth the read. lol Or if he did come as Superman (per Perry's request as Lara suggested), would one of them assume that he was wearing one of those costumes with the fake muscles? Also, it would be funny if Jimmy showed up as Batman. wink

Thanks for the giggles, LLF!

Very funny! I agree - we need a sequel of the actual party. smile

I have that one! lol

The plot is almost Don't Tug on Superman's Cape, too! A brother and sister fighting it out to be the one to steal Superman's cape and have it in their collection.

Cute story.

Virginia, there's a reason why Cat is the gossip columnist and not a real reporter.

DC, I think Ralph would make a better Guy Gardner. So who would Perry be? I can think of a couple Marvel possibilities (specifically, Hulk and The Thing), but I can't think of any broad-shouldered DC heroes off the top of my head. Maybe Martian Manhunter, since he can shape shift? Of course, no one with his fear of fire would ever choose to smoke.

I thought of that as well. Was Clark there and overheard them talking? What would Cat and Lois say if he didn't show up as Superman? Does he dare show up as Superman with some alterations to the disguise? (different cape/glasses/padding underneath to make him look chubby)

Chickberry, there actually is an amusing story in the archives in which something very similar happens; the blurb for it reads, "The Planet's holding a costume party for charity, and a suspicious Jimmy thinks Clark ought to borrow one of Superman's spare uniforms; it ought to fit him really well -- maybe even as well as if it had been made for him!" The story is...

Great job, Lois Lane Fan smile.

I totally loved Cat's confidence--how sure she was that she 'had' them. It made the turn around, that there was a costume party that evening, that much more perfect.

Can I chime in and add a vote for a sequel? It would be so fun to see how the evening were to go. Loving the ideas so far clap.

Thanks for sharing,
Laura


"Where's Clark?" "Right here."

...two simple sentences--with so much meaning.

I think that Ralph would be just as brilliant as Guy Gardner (never liked "Rambo with a ring") as he would be as Plastic Man. I could even see him as the Flash (Wally West), too.

Regarding Perry: How about Wildcat? (Or just plain Elvis.)

Come to think of it, Jimmy would be even better as the Flash. No kidding. And Bobby Bigmouth could crash the party as Batman. laugh

Lois' eyes darted down to the gym bag lying at her feet. "You went through my gym bag?"
To be fair, it wasn’t locked away in a sealed vault, so there was practically a standing invitation to investigate.

"Cat, if I'm Wonder Woman, why is it that I need Superman to save me all the time?" Lois asked.

Erm…she never pretended to be a wimpy reporter and she usually is stronger.

As Lois began laughing again, a wave of embarrassment suddenly hit Cat. "Oh."
Face!

That was fun!

Oh, yeah. I could totally see Jimmy as The Flash. Rather ironic, since one of Jimmy's alter egos in the Silver Age was Turtle Boy (or Giant Turtle Man).
[Linked Image]

But since he has also been Elastic Lad:

it wouldn't be much of a leap to turn him into Plastic Man.

I could see Wild Cat working for Perry. (I had forgotten about him.) But of course you are right; the Chief would much prefer to be The King.

No matter what, with all these suggestions, this is going to be a wild costume party! clap

Maybe Inspector Henderson can be Sherlock Holmes?

Just a thought ...

Good idea. He's definitely too sharp to be Lestrade, even if they happen to share a title.

Nah, he'd do well as Batman.


Wait, isn't it supposed to be a Planet Halloween Party? laugh

Cat definitely jumped the gun. It seems a lot of people are interested in a sequel. I do have a couple of ideas for one, so a sequel is a possibility.

I could see Hulk, the Thing, or Martian Manhunter all being a good fit for Perry.

I think Lois would definitely choose something along the lines of the Golden Age costume.
