My wife and I will be leaving for Colombia in about a week. A lot of unsettled business to take care of, but I’m such a procrastinator, I’m not sure it’ll be taken care of until we get back.

But I did want to ask a few questions and maybe you’ll have a bit of insight into this that I don’t: Did Clark Kent go to J-School? Of any sort?

Because one minute he’s all Mr. Smallville and the next, POOF!, got his byline on the front page of a major metropolitan (Metropolis, as it were) newspaper. In some versions (such as the tv show which may or may not still be airing originals, I don’t know), he actually worked for the high school newspaper. But, there’s a long way from there to here, I know that much.

Peter Parker, he’s a freelancer, just like me. But if J. Jonah Jameson doesn’t like his stuff, he’s stuck. Why? Cuz he has no credentials and J. Jonah Jameson runs a rag, let’sfaceit.

But Perry runs - if not the New York Times, then at least the Chicago Tribune, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, the Boston Globe. Jameson just runs Globe, the magazine.

Some bigger, heavier questions about Superman to come down the pike sooner rather than later.
