A superhero as his alias tenderly holds his boyfriend’s hand. In his other hand is a small half mask.
Superhero: I have something I need to tell you… I’m Dashing Defender.
Boyfriend: What? No, that can’t be possible.
Superhero: I’ll prove it.
The superhero has put the half mask on his face. The boyfriend is surprised and delighted.
Boyfriend: You’re Dashing Defender!
The superhero takes it off again. The boyfriend looks around frantically.
Superhero: That’s what I was trying to tell you.
Boyfriend: Drat, did you see where Dashing Defender went?
P.S. Our bills are paid by our wonderful patrons. Could you chip in?
Funny!
Reminded me of Platypus Perry
LOL … where could he have gone…
Good one again, Bunny and Chris!
Classic one.
Okay but can we talk about that background and how cozy it is? Such cute kitties too.
Kitties!
And books.
And plants.
Very cozy.
You may laugh at the silliness, but as I recall there was a golden age interaction with Wonder Woman/Diana Prince/Steve Trevor that was dang close to this.
Heck, Steve Trevor is very familiar with both Wonder Woman and Diana Prince and doesn’t realize they’re the same person even though Wonder Woman doesn’t wear a mask. And Lois Lane is in the same boat.
Canonically, Superman uses super hypnosis amplified by his kryptonian glass glasses to actually look different to people. https://www.progressiveruin.com/images/sm330d.jpg
Were you referring to me, Erynus? Because I am the one who mentioned indirectly Superman with my joke.
Anyway, thanks for the answer, it makes now more sense than what I thought.
I was referring to Lois being in the same boat as Trevor, but the fact is that Superman and Clark look different, so is hardly the same issue.
It’s not like as if heroes use weak disguises to conceal their identities like for instance using glasses.
Superheroes are called that, because they are better. They surely must know how to hide behind the masses.
Good comic, though, will we get a sci fi trope next? I know some few.
This is cute!
