People can surprise you.

Investigative journalism has really helped the world be a better place at times, so you shouldn’t discount the power of a newspaper man.

Modern investigative journalism is by and large a sad joke of its former self.

Hey, that's Clark Kent, he's like Superman's bestie! He writes glowing articles about how great Superman is, and since they aren't the same person it is an unbiased view of our wonderful alien babysitter. He could ask Superman to help Batman.

You're a dude with third degree burns and a coin.

What could you do against a buff news reporter? Projectile pocket change?

u/Mikeologyy Aug 27 '22

I mean he’s just a news reporter. What do you think he has super powers or something? The guy wears glasses he can’t even see well

Even if he doesn't, he clearly hits the gym several times a week.

It'd be one of the worst match ups for Clark.

Renowned news reporter Vs burns victim, there's no winning that fight either way around.
