Lois & Clark Forums Forums Fan Fiction Fanfic Challenge The Amazing Clark Kent!

Just had an idea pop into my head. For as often as it happens, Clark hardly gets questioned on how he manages to get out of all the scrapes he and Lois get into. What if he absently remarks that he used to perform magic? Houdini didn't escape as many traps as Clark.

I'm always fascinated by the idea of superheroes pretending they're just really dope magicians.

I like the idea! Sorry for the pointless post, but I just had to share this Bronze Age cover:



Never read the story but can't say it doesn't make the concept seem interesting! lol

I haven't read that story either; I'm guessing that Clark used one of his Superman, and that this is Clark's way of disproving (yet again) that he is Superman. Since it isn't generally known that he has robots, people would figure that the secret to the trick is that Superman actually agreed to pretend to be a puppet to help out his friend. (Maybe the show is part of a charity fund-raiser.)

If anyone has actually read the comic, how close did I get? Either way, it does look like a fun read. Thanks for sharing the cover.

Joy,
