John Nolte at bighollywood.com has an article about Superman in the "Superman" comic actually speaking about truth, justice and the american way, as if he actually likes the country. It was the Action Comics superman who is the anti-american superman. Those out there who still read the comic, what's the deal and which one is more accurate if either one is? What's the deal?

Superman is make believe. Jesus Christ.

Is Harry Potter British? No. He's pretend.
 
Superman is.....Kryptonian... as to whether or not he is a Kryptonian American....I don't know :D

No, he was born on Krypton. He was raised American. My GGrandparents were not born here. They considered themselves American. It's sort of interesting that hypenization and what that culturally means has been raised on a subject such as this one.
 
Okay. In all seriousness. I played D&D as a kid and our group, much as most other groups of kids who played D&D, used to talk about what classes or races we'd be if we were magically transported to the realm of Greyhawk. But for Pete's sake, I was in the 7th grade.

You guys are politicizing a comic book character. He's pretend. A work of fiction created by a collection of writers and artists spanning decades. He's not American. He's not Kryptonian.

This is like debating whether Capt. Kirk would be a Republican or a Democrat. Or whether you would have a chance of scoring with Counselor Troy.
 
I'm still pondering the logic of arguing how American a carachter created by a Jewish-Canadian really is.

Yes, yes he is

Well you see this one is debatable since the writer and the actor who plays him are but debating it would be silly so stop that.... its silly.

I did not use sarcasm much in 7th grade.... but I use it a lot now ;)

No, no I'm not....see sarcasm... and I still say he is a Kryptonian American.... I cannot help it if you have a cartoon prejudice and do not think he deserves to have the same rights and freedoms as those that are not cartoons.... I mean did you even BOTHER to watch Roger rabbit...sheesh

Well first Captain Kirk is from Iowa but I do not think politically parties exist in the federation so your question is of course rather silly and shows a complete lack or trekiness so you are now ban from all star trek conventions… and of course Kirk would score with counselor Troy….. He’s Kirk… but sadly… like every other woman Kirk has ever been involved with…she would soon after die.

All and all me thinkst you are taking this much more seriously than I :uhyeah:
 
Everyone scores with Troi. Hell, even the Klingon got lucky.
