Michael, I hear the debate going on about comics vs L&C. I guess I am such a Superman fan that I will take my stories in any media I can get them.
I started reading DC comics when I was 9, largely because the Superman TV series with George Reeves was on in the afternoon and my older brothers left their comics lying around the house. (Yes, I am getting OLD!! Darn it!) Stopped reading them in high school, got interested again in 1978 after Superman:the Movie came out. Collected comics again from 1980 until 1993 when I was unemployed for a while (they aren't cheap these days, had to cut something out!)
Got re-interested in 2001 when WB's Smallville came out. This past summer I was on a cross-country trip and every morning before I left my motel room to drive another 400-500 miles I watched Lois & Clark on TBS. I discovered L&C Fanfiction in the Fall of 2003...and here I am!
Without the comics, there would be no Lois & Clark. Recently I purchased some hard-cover compiliations and the comics have gotten much better! I guess I will either read comics, watch Superman on TV or movies, or read fanfic until the day they put me down!@
I loved Batman's cameo, love how their approaches are so different, but yet they maintain a respectful friendship. Perhaps your fic will bridge the gap to FOLCs that never grew up reading comics!!! Keep bringing it on!
