There’s Romance in the Air
Who says there’s no such thing as a storybook romance? Only those who have forgotten about the rocky but persistent love affair between comic hero Superman and Lois Lane.
They’re finally getting married--in print and on television--after a courtship of about 60 years, DC Comics Executive Editor Mike Carlin said.
“They’ve decided it’s the right thing to do,” Carlin told the New York Post in Tuesday’s editions.
The Man of Steel, a.k.a. mild-mannered reporter Clark Kent, will say “I do” to his Daily Planet colleague in a special comic called “Superman: The Wedding Album.”
The comic book goes on sale Oct. 9, just three days after their TV counterparts get hitched on ABC’s “Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman.”
The couple has dated since 1938, when the comic book debuted.
Carlin promises that the ceremony won’t be marred by any villains, but the same cannot be said of the honeymoon in Hawaii, where an ancient menace will cross their paths.
