Superman Denounces His American Citizenship – Going Global to Fight Crime

There are a ton of reasons to love Superman.

He can run fast, he can fly, and he can even deflect bullets and see through walls.

But in a sign of the times the super hero has decided to take the non-traditional Superman approach to our current Geo-political problems.

In an effort to reconnect with his fans, he will walk across America in Action Comics issue #700. The man of steel is walking instead of flying because he wants to be close to the people. Writer Michael Straczynski says,

"You have to remember that when Superman was initially created, his fights weren't against vast interstellar forces. They were against criminals preying on the average guy. Superman was created to be the ally of the average American, the guy who didn't have lots of money or friends in high places."

The storyline will play out over multiple issues and create what might be the biggest Superman exploit ever taken in issue #900 when he announces he is going to give up his U.S. citizenship.

That’s right – and it’s not because he can’t find his long form United States Birth Certificate.

But how can this be? After all, the very theme song says Superman is all about “truth, justice, and the American way." How can you take that away from us?

We can blame it on writer David S. Goyer.

He wrote the DC Comic issue #900 where Superman tells the President's National Security Advisor, who is outraged that Superman appeared in Tehran to non-violently support the revolution protesters demonstrating against the Iranian regime.

However, since Superman is seen as an American, the Iranian government has considered his actions as the will of the American President, and indeed, an act of war.

Oh brother. First a cartoon showing Mohammad almost started a war, and now Superman?

Superman says he was a fool to think that his actions would not reflect politically on the American government, and that he therefore plans to renounce his American citizenship at the United Nations the next day, and to continue working as a superhero from a more global than national perspective.

So now we have to call Bruce in India just to get in touch with Superman?

It makes sense. The Daily Planet Newspaper was absorbed by evil Rupert Murdoch’s FOX Entertainment years ago, and then shut down when Glenn Beck joined the network. Who needs newspapers anyway?

What if Superman finds himself on the no-fly-list and can’t fly back to Washington for an important meeting of the Super Friends? What if he gets groped by a TSA agent who feels those buns of steel?

We know art imitates life, but in this case art is imitating a part of life that makes most people uneasy in the real world. We get the whole Globalization thing.

But how are we going to explain this one to our kids?

World's Largest Salt Lake "Urmia" Iran - Amazing and Rare Photos Collection







The lake serves as a natural divider between the provinces of East and West Azerbaijan and their main cities, Tabriz and Urmia, respectively. The latter was named “city of water”, referring to the lake that was named after it. Lake Urmia is 1,275 m (4,183 ft) above sea level, at the bottom of Azerbaijan’s large central depression.





Lake Urmia is the world’s third largest salt lake. Fed by mountain streams, it has no other outlet than evaporation. Salts and minerals can therefore build in the lake whose high salinity allows only one fish species to survive.

"Generate Power"

Thought this McCain advert was rip-roaringly hilarious.



World War 3 propoganda no doubt [also the Russian stuff is all part of getting the sides set up for WW3, couple of interesting links here and here from the Mail]. [on the DNC (=21, 777), Obama is set to accept the nomination in an open stadium (note the JFK mentioning at the end of that link; watch out for the snipers mate... seriously); designed to look like an Ancient Greek temple.... (including two huge sets of twin pillars)]

By the way, all police are egotistical/power hungry maniacs (doesn't help that they're unwitting freemasonic pawns, hence the checkerboard); one punched a 12 year old boy with mental difficulties. Also, a double headed baby was born in Bangladesh, and an interesting archaeological discovery (1300 year old sacrificed mummy found [note the masks usage], which talks about sacrifice; giving us hints why these mind controlled killings take place, like my last post) was made: “The sacrifices were very common, particularly of children and young girls. They were part of their ritual offerings to the sea and the land.” (see link). Taking a couple days break from the blog (might do a Eureka post tomorrow though) and should be back with some more proper posts soon.


Need more evidence on what I said about cops?

Isn't fascism fun!
