Wow,had to re=read the other 7 installments again, seems like it was awhile ago I read # 7! You certainly left things up in the air....

Will Superman save the day or make it worse? Is Lois Lane starting to figure out that Clark and Superman are never in the same room at the same time????

Ah, the pain of waiting for #9.....

Michael, good instalment.

I like your Henderson and Sawyer's exchange. Maggie Sawyer was always a good supporting character in the comics.

It will be interesting to see if your Lois falls hard for the Super guy, or just admires him. And then there's Clark. She seems to not despise him, or even dislike him. Will she eventually grow to like him?

The part was short but solid. But that just means you have to give us MORE!

Michael

Another great part!

Tricia

Hi,

Great part.

Great part Michael!

I can understand why Clark would dismiss Lois concerns, he has been living like this for a long time and he got used to shut himself out. But Lois was right, he can't keep living like this forever, he is super but he is still a man.

Can't wait to see what happens, especially how Lois and Clark's relationship progresses.

Post next part soon.

Bill and Maggie were *great*. I love their recognizance of Superman's beat and their reluctance to depend on him. Good for them.

But... good grief, Michael, you're bringing in Deathstroke? Er, you do know that the Deathstroke most FoLCs know isn't named Slade Wilson, don't you? Just how much of the comics world do you plan to bring into this story? Because if Slade is here, I can't help worrying that the "one bad day away" is referring to a green-haired fellow in Gotham -- and let's face it, comics-based fics aren't all that popular here.

Do let us know what direction you're taking this in! You haven't responded to the last few comments pages and I'm quite curious now. And give us MORE!

Oh Ye' of Little Faith, Hazel. Trust me, there's a method to my madness. Just ask my doctor (it's my third escape attempt).

You've voiced concern over my use of comic stuff in the past so I'll make you a promise. I won't say that there won't be a "guest star" from time to time, but I'm not turning this into a fan boy's dream.

Each character I pick has a reason for being there and if one I "invent" bears a resemblance to someone in the comics I give the devil his due. But I won't be turning this into a comic book.

My real life profession tends to make me think in certain terms so I'll be exploring those more than anything else. I know, sounds mysterious, but I'm afraid too much more would give things away.

Oh, and absolutely, positively, no green haired, pasty faced, killer clowns. I totally promise!!!
