Does it... contain motor oil?

[supermememan]

Motor oil is delicious and nutritious! Just add a few bullets to serve as ice cubes!

Some Kansan things I think Clark and the other supers from Kansas would say or do, by a Kansan:

Yee Yee: an exclamation said before one does something exciting, such as hunting, fishing, or shotgunning

Ope let me squeeze right on past ya there, sorry

Yeehaw: definitely said while flying around.

Have overly weird "salads". I don't even know how or why they are classified as salads, but that's what we call them. (Smth like lime jello salad)

Clark as a teen has definitely tried weed. There is jack fucking shit to do in KS but fight and do drugs (in gas station parking lots). That's how he knows drugs don't work on him. He tried them.

Aldis.

Brooding in fields.

Trader Joe's!

They all know way too much about different types of grass. Just going to school in Kansas does that to ya.

*grabs wild animal* this here is a friendly lil guy, innhe? *animal is biting, hissing, and spitting*

Yes to the overly politeness, even if they don't like someone. But if they don't like someone, it's passive aggressive. So, so passive aggressive.

That's all I can think of for now. There are probably more.

you’re twelve years old and you break your father’s hand when he hi-fives you. the first thing you learn is that the smallest slip up can hurt the people you love. your (foster) father smiles and says it’s okay (it’s not). 

your parents are not your parents. the idyllic farming community that raised you is not your home. you’re a You-Don’t-Know-What from You-Don’t-Know-Where. all you know for sure is that you’re not human. 

so you can fly. so you can run fast. so you can lift cars. so what? why do you even have this power? what should you even do with it? 

your father said do what’s right, so that’s what you do. 

you stop a robbery. the man’s knife shatters against your skin and you see the same fear in his eyes that you saw in your father’s when you were twelve. you catch a falling child before it can hit the water. his mother looks at you like you’re a god. 

they love you, even though they don’t know you. the most powerful man in the world hates you because they love you. 

you wanted to write when you were younger. you wanted to tell stories that needed to be told. you never wanted to star in them. you never wanted super-geniuses and demi-goddesses looking to you for advice; like you have any idea how to handle threats to reality itself. you’re just a kid from smallville who’s trying to do the best he can with what he’s given. 

you try and get back to the farm as much as you can. it feels normal being back among the open wheat; where everyone smiles because you’re that nice Kent boy. 

when you were younger, you pretended to fly, hands out to your sides and running through the tall grass by the river. it doesn’t look as beautiful from on high; the details get lost and the colors of your hometown blur together from a mile above ground. 

the problem with flying is that it puts you so far above people you care about

Clark Kent: Jon, your mother and I have something important to tell you. I’m… Superman.

Jon, who has read the Percy Jackson series: wait, is that why I have dyslexia? Because my brain is wired for Kryptonese?

Lois, from downstairs: HONEY HOW DO YOU SPELL TACO

Clark, deadpan: no, the dyslexia is from your mother

Superman: Red & Blue #5 - “De-Escalation” (2021)

written by G. Willow Wilson art by Valentine De Landro

[cincoflex]

I love this. The stories that show supers being HEROES are these: talking, de-escalating, helping, being supportive, kind and convincing. Clark is a hero without ever having to be Superman.

[saiyanqueenreads]

Oh this….. this I like.

[ailingwriter]

On one hand, yes. All of this.

On the other hand. “You got X-Ray vision or something?” Yes. Yes he does.

HOLY SHIT THIS IS THE SINGLE GREATEST SUPERMAN-FOCUSED WORK I HAVE EVER SEEN AND THAT IS NOT AN EXAGGERATION.

nbd nbd just losing my ENTIRE MIND over this

[cafetriple]

Superman confronts a new supervillain who is supposed to be another “genius billionaire mastermind”. Only, this time, this guy is an absolute useless piece of shit who has been falling on his ass upwards throughout his entire career. The guy believes himself to be on par or above Luthor, but he is in fact the most mediocre man who ever mediocred. Superman keeps disabling his plans too easily, on the rare occasions when he doesn’t shoot himself on the foot directly. However, his wealth is so vast and far reaching that even after the most pathetic failure, he still causes terrible collateral damages to large swaths of the population. The thing that frustrates Clark the most, though, is that this guys stupidity remains invisible to many of his journalist coworkers by mere plausible deniability. “If he is such a successful businessman he must be very smart. Surely, he chooses to appear stupid  to further his interests”.

this is probably one of my favorite clarks i've ever drawn, because i showed this to my roommate and he was like "this made me realize what there is to love about superman."

and also because of this comment:

it's a simple one-off comment but as someone who has struggled with body image stuff etc. myself it really made me happy that something I made could have this sort of impact on at least one person. that's all

[nat-20s]

"why do you even like Clark Kent so much??" He's JEWISH he's an IMMIGRANT he's an ALIEN and he's FUNDAMENTALLY KIND litcherally what's not to like??
