Haha…sounds to me like someone has debated about this before.

Neph? Nah that would be totally out of chara… ok nevermind.
(Thanks, nephorm, for saving me the trouble of explaining that. I’m glad someone else is up on these things.)
I’ve got about 4 decades of Marvel and DC filling the attic, both literally and figuratively (in the sense that 40 years of these are in my brain still).
Anyone familiar with the Warren Ellis tour de force that takes the reader on a romp through a century+ of western literature?
[i]Planetary[/i]
Fuck the Bat I’ll take the Cat anyday, Wildcat’s the guy who trained pretty much every DC hero in self defense including a certain billionaire with a fetish for bats and young men in short shorts. Plus he’s done Selina Kyle(Catwoman), and Wonder Woman’s mom Hippolyta(sp)
One of the best series DC had, I knew it was going to get cancelled
My favortite marvel character. Little trivia eery time a republican is in office Steve Rogers quits being Cap, 70’s Nomad(Nixon in office), 80’s The Captain(Reagan, Bush I), 00’s Cival War(Bush II). Things that make you go hmmmmmm
The second issue where Johnny Walker becomes Cap, then loses it and kills a bunch of people
My favorite character ever. Hawkamn, mix Highlander with Conan, and Indiana Jones, and you get Carter Hall
Best mini series ever. The Earth 2 Batman from the grave helps solve a mystery by accusing the JSA of being traitors during WWII
Batman Versus Spawn
Good stuff, for what it was.

So this would also hold true for any of his progeny…? But still, you gotta wonder, any woman that comes in contact with Superman’s love-gun is gonna have some worries. It’s not going to be a magic-carpet ride…
Christ on cracker! People, this is a no-brainer.

During the late 80’s they touched on upon this subject, basically Lois was killed by Clark Jr when he kicked her in the womb, this leads him to leave earth and live with Maxima.

Unless his sperm are like little bullets, I don’t think there would be a problem. Sperm exits the body at what, 30mph? Even at 100 mph, a viscous substance like that isn’t going to do any damage.
