    Default Superman

    It's 2:23AM in Rochester, lightly snowing. If I was sane I'd be sleeping, but I can't figure out how Superman shaves. Not even a Filarmonica or a Duck should be able to slice through Kal-El's superwhiskers. Clark Kent should look like a ZZ Topper. I'm troubled.
    Don't get hung up on hanging hairs.

    He certainly used to use a mirror to reflect his heat vision back onto his beard which only seemed to grow when he'd been exposed to Red Kryptonite, but I haven't been keeping up with his latest exploits so this information maybe way out of date.

    I always assumed super man chewed his fingernails until they were jaggard and then scraped his whiskers off with his fingernails.

    The heat vision story sounds way cooler... & more hygienic

    But wouldn't his heat vision just melt through the mirror?

    A more serious problem would be when he'd make love to Lois Lane and get a little too excited.........

    The results could be desasterous! (lol)

    Lois would have to be more worried about what could happen if she got pregnant. What would happen with the baby started kicking?

    Thumbs up

    More than likely he uses the Northern forest (Paul Bunyan) technique of beating the whiskers inward and then biting them off. Dovo and TI have not been tickled to learn of this technique, which is just too bad, as it does result in the perfect BBS "shave" without benefit of any mechanical contrivance.

    I have seen this depicted in comics so it must be true.

    Well, he's Superman so he can control his heat vision to produce just the right amount of heat which is light anyway so it's reflected by the mirror.

    As for haircuts ... this was all I could find.

    So far, that maxim has never let me down. I do love this song though.
