Okay now, don't be a dick. Like you've never been so lonely that you caught yourself trolling online prison personal ads. Well, perhaps not.

In Death House Honeymoon once again we see that Lois Lane inspires devotion in every one but Superman. I beginning to think that our Man of Steel really doesn't deserve the undying loyalty of little Miss Lois Lane. Okay, so maybe undying is a bit of a stretch, but she if far more loyal than I would be under the same circumstances. This story also acts as an awkward introduction to the character The Thorn whose own dedicated story follows directly after this Lois story.


I can't help but think that a guy by the name of Johnny Adonis would be far better looking.


It's a man's job! I'm glad we cleared that up.


If Lois can't even drive down the street without nearly getting killed, how is it that Superman ever gets anything done?


Never mind "Crazy Collins", Miss Lane! He is one of the 100! A paid killer! He has no respect for anyone on earth! ... He's also really horny and you are kind of dressed like a tramp.



I'll do anything to repay you! That's a you can bang me face if I ever saw one.


Funny, if I were in Johnny's place and I had Lois' unbreakable word, there would be a whole hell of a lot of requests that would top the list above marriage. 



Speaking of dressed like a tramp.


I'm your wife! Oh honey, that never works.



And I'm left with a sensational eye-witness scoop of marriage and murder! Wow, way to shake off Johnny's death. 

What a story! And I'm sure no one is surprised to find that a woman like Lois can bring out the good even in a cold blooded killer.

  1. LOL! I'm guessing "Adonis" was meant to be one of those ironic nicknames, like when people call a really tall guy "Little Joe" or something like that.

  2. Too bad you haven't posted in awhile. I just re-read this story over Christmas last year.

    1. I totally think about blogging all the time. Then I have to change a diaper and I forget again! :)
