Slow work day, so I'm spicing things up with a game of 20 questions.


I'm thinking of a comic book character.


Post yes or no questions to try to figure out who it is.

I won't count this one, since the answer to Bud's last question would rule out Alfred anyways.

To all the players, who's the seemingly "special" guy who idolizes Superman?

Don't the FBI or Checkmate handle law enforcement? The FBI, Checkmate and the police aren't the same thing! It's all Dax's fault for not asking vague enough questions!
Wade Wilson

Kalel21

THE CORRECT ANSWER WAS:


Professor Lewis Lang (Lana's dad).

Shenanigans!


Professors are super-smart (especially when we establish that he has no super-powers!). I was tricked, I say!



That said I wouldn't have gotten it so well played by you!

I'll have to go look for it, but there's an online database that will play a 20 questions-type game with you and is remarkable accurate.
Wade Wilson

i don't even know who that is XD

SUPER-smart would be Lex Luthor or Reed Richards level smart. Prof. Lang was a talented archeologist, but I don't see him building a Negative Zone portal. He was just above-average smart. :laugh:

No, Reed Richards has a Negative Zone portal. Let's keep proper track of our super-smart guys. :laugh:

also, didn't Lana Lang's parents die before Kent made it to Smallville?

Not in Silver Age continuity. I think that just happens in the TV series.

He didn't guess Professor Lang either!
Wade Wilson

who did he guess?

I just tried it and it came up with Atticus Finch (from To Kill a Mockingbird).
