This is kind of fun — there’s no prize involved, but I won the “Caption Contest” on the Superman Homepage several times :)   The Superman Homepage is THE site on the net for all things Superman: Comics, TV, Movies, and so much more.  I can honestly say there is no better place on the web if you love Kal-El.

One of the monthly features (besides all the news, podcasts, reviews, and far, far more) includes posting a silly Superman picture and inviting readers to post humorous captions.

Check out the site; it’s excellent.

This is no fantasy. No careless product of wild imagination. I ask you now to pronounce judgment on those accused. On this… This mindless TV movie, whose only means of entertaining are wanton canon-violation and bad musical numbers. And on the woman Leslie Anne Warren, whose unreasoning hatred of any fashion sense has threatened even the children of the Planet Hollywood. Finally, David Wilson. Chief architect of this intended revolution and author of this insidious plot to ruin a generation’s version of Superman!

You know, becoming Superman… Been working on that for quite some time now.” [Voice gets higher] “Got, a nice costume, do you? Some red and blue? A cape?” [Voice gets higher] “Been, flying around, saving people openly? You know, FLYING? Not wallowing around in angst anymore? [Voice gets higher] Give the papers something new to write about… Keep the readers guessing?” [Voice gets higher] “Everyone learns that the hero’s journey isn’t always a happy one?” [Voice returns to normal] “I look forward to seeing it.”
