"Now will Superman's spiritual mother please come forward and let go of her shreds of Superman to the other alleged father/mother, so the baby is salvageable for the people that really care for the characters, the comic book readers that have made the Siegels, the Schusters [sic], DC Comics and Warner Brothers rich?" --
