Michael, this was amazing. I think I'm in love with your Lois and Clark.

Lois was so utterly perfect. Clark was hilariously clueless. I love how that single glimpse of Lois when they were in college had the same effect (if not more!) than his first kiss with Lana had, even if he didn't understand that. And that confrontation in the newsroom...! I'm not sure what was better -- the way she tried to cut him down, the way he cut her off, or the way she grudgingly cut him slack. Either way, the whole thing was wonderful!

And some very nice parallels to what we know of Clark's life with Lois' conversation with Ben. Maybe we FoLCs would prefer to have Lois come to that realization on her own, but you've made it clear that she's already wondered about Superman's downtime and methods with dealing with tragedy before.

The one advantage of a super-Superman (i.e. Silver Age style) is that it makes Clark's humanity so much more poignant and real. It seems we're beginning to get an idea of what the "one bad day" of your title might be, so let's have MORE!

Hi,

Great part.

Michael, great atart. I am looking forward to more. Laura

Yep....she's wondering where he goes when he's not Superman....here it comes....."does he have a secret identity?"....

Love the wink she gave him after she chewed him out.

Now if I remember correctly, Lana Lang is a newscaster for WGBS....

You have me hooked....

Michael, excellant instalment.

What Hazel said.

I really like your Lois. She embodies so much of what makes Lois so special. She has strength and a no nonsense attitude toward her life and her job, but you also let us see that she cares. That's something that is often overlooked.

This is a fun amalgam of a silver age Superman with a more current Lois. This is going to be a fun ride.

Tank (who thinks that Supes had best worry now that Lois is on the scent)

An excellent part!
Please post more soon.

Michael,

I'm slowly catching up, but didn't want such wonderful writing to go uncommented on.

You have a real gift with characterization.

Like everyone else, I love your Lois.

Can't wait to see what's in store!
