Another reason why these midnight liasons between Superman and Lois, after Clark's death are creeping me out.
I can assure you, no amount of trauma would educe this sort of behaviour in these two in this short amount of time. They're not animals.
Well, as we said a couple of instalments ago, Dundan, if anyone can't accept the characterisation and events as portrayed in this story, that's entirely your right and you might just want to read something else instead.
Characterisation is pretty subjective, though. What we're saying with this story is - as I mentioned before - that extreme circumstances bring extreme reactions. This is an exercise in 'what if' here; your response to the 'what if' would be different to ours, obviously.
No, they're not animals; they're humans, with human failings and human reactions.
In this section, Clark is recovering from the shock of believing that Lois had been killed; he's desperate for the comfort and reassurance that she's alive and that she needs him as much as he needs her. Would the extreme emotion he's feeling lead him to this? Maybe. Maybe not. All we're saying is that in
our interpretation it has.
