LOIS LANE (NOEL NEILL) HAS DIED

July 5, 2016 at 8:16 pm 2 comments

Being a lover of science fiction from an early age, I, of course, watched Superman on TV during the fifties.

I just read that Noel Neill, who played Lois Lane, had died at the age of 95.  I had to have watched every episode where Noel Neill playing Lois Lane appeared beside George Reeves playing Superman.

Here are some musings about how that past Superman would have a problem dealing in the current day and age.  It struck me, in this day and age, with cellphones the predominate means of communication and phone booths a thing of the past, where in our current society could Superman change?

Also, a pair of glasses was his disguise.  I must admit, when I remove my glasses people around me expect me to fly.  I continually disappoint them, so far.  And also, what would happen if Superman developed a super zit on the tip of his nose?  Would taking off his glasses still conceal his identity?

Questions keeping me up some nights.  I’m sure they have the same effect on you.
