Since he crashed down from Krypton 1938, Superman has been as
American as apple pie. With the wind rippling over his red, white and
blue costume as he flew through the air, through comic books, TV shows
and movies, the Man of Steel has served as a prime representation of all
things to which America aspires.
Now, in a time of great international turmoil, Superman is giving up his national identity.
In "Action Comics #900," Superman will renounce his American citizenship,
rejecting the international notion that his actions are part of US
policy. The shift comes after a personal visit to Iran in support of
protestors leads Ahmadinejad to believe America was declaring war
against the government in Tehran.
By rejecting his citizenship, Superman will now work on a grander
international scale, because, as he says, "truth, justice and the
American way... it's not enough anymore"
Whether this impacts the upcoming Superman franchise reboot film "Man
of Steel," remains to be seen, but it will most certainly take the
legendary hero in a new direction.

Congradulations to the Green Movement
by MeyBokhor_Manbarbesuzan on Fri Apr 29, 2011 04:51 AM PDTNow they have the man in tights helping them. LOL. Latest news is he is gonna wear green shorts instead of the usual red to express his sympathy.
Why is he not also protecting the people of Gaza? Because the next day the writer and his Superman would find a stick of kryptonite shoved up their ass, courtesy of Netanyahoo.
