From The Editor...

Recently David Cassells told me he named his daughter Kara
and asked if any other readers named their children or pets after
Superman-related characters. I told him I had a dog named Sam
(George's schnauzer was called Sam) and a parakeet named Schuyler
(from "The Whistling Bird"). Other readers sent these: |
 |
1. John Bast's e-mail name is "gcgjohn." The "gcg"
stands for "Great Caesar's Ghost"
2. Armando Alvarez suggests his name could be "Don"
Alvarez ("The Man Who Could Read Minds")

In regards to asking people about information on family names
dealing with Superman, I wanted to let you know that my entire
family is somehow related to Superman by either choice or coincidence.
I named my second child "Kara" (Supergirl). She has
long, blonde hair and blue eyes. She looks a lot like Supergirl.
My son's name is Kirk Allan. (Kirk Alyn). My youngest daughter
is Nina Terese. (Terese is for Teri Hatcher). My oldest daughter
was born on September 25th (Christopher Reeve's birthday). My
middle name is Joseph and my wife's maiden name is Schuster.
(Joe Schuster was a co-creator of Superman). How's that for a
Super-family?
3. Bobby Ryan has a dog named Corky ("The Dog Who Knew
Superman")
