Dear Stan, I am humbly dumbfounded by this stock. It's like this: Scene: Man gets tied on a railroad track and left. Train is 20 minutes away. Audience: "He's superman. He'll get out." Bear comes along and rips legs off of superman. Audience: "He's still got his arms. He's superman. He'll get out of this." Wild dogs come and eat arms off superman. Audience: "That's okay. He's got his x-ray rope-burning vision." Birds come and peck superman's eyes out. Audience: "The train is still 5 minutes away. Besides, he's superman. He can use his superhuman brain to telepathically communicate with those ants on that hill to come and eat through the ropes and carry him off the track." Ants come and sting superman until he's dead. Audience: "He'e not dead. He's just laying back to fool everyone. He probably planned this whole thing so the bad guys would get over-confident. Besides, he has more patents than any other super-hero. Why I bet right now he's inventing a brand-new 'anti-criminal, leg-growing, arm-regenerating, eyeball-restoring, blood-making, super-escape, platinum-bullet body regrower. Not only will he get away, but just think how many other people in this same situation will buy it. He'll be rich!" Train completely obliterates superman. Only a few skin particles remain. Audience: "I told you he lost his powers when he took money from those voodoo islanders and joined them in having their way with Lois." "Yea, but it all started when Igor B. Mazeltoff stopped supplying him with anti-Krypton powder. That's when he started associating with the Dark Side and visiting those mobile code factories. He got all screwed up before they put any windows in them. Anyone who stays in the Dark Side that long can't expect to be superman." "Hey, I hear there's a new guy on the corner -- Pee-X Man. Let's check it out."
