For all of you Superman fans on the net: 1) Give the colors and effects of the various types of Kryptonite. 2) Give the names of as many of Superman's girlfriends as you can and what do most of them have in common? 3) What relation is Mon-el (from the Legion of Superheroes) to Superboy and what material was his bane? 4) Who were the original 3 members of the Legion of Superheroes? 5) What is the origin of the Bizarros? Good luck! Doug Burton Dan Vanevic inuxc!burton inuxc!rael Bell Labs, Indianapolis

#R:inuxc:-37200:uiucdcs:13500002:000:1741 uiucdcs!mcewan Sep 10 14:36:00 1982 1) Give the colors and effects of the various types of Kryptonite. green Kryptonite - kills Kryptonians. red Kryptonite - has an unpredictable affect on Kryptonians - usually causing a physical change. Effects last at most 48 hours. gold Kryptonite - permenantly removes the powers of a Kryptonian. white Kryptonite - kills plants. Kryptonite-x - it gave Streaky the super-cat his powers. I don't think it has appeared anywhere else. 2) Give the names of as many of Superman's girlfriends as you can and what do most of them have in common? Lois Lane Lana Lang Lori Lemuras(???) A Kryptonian actress with initials L.L. whose name I can't think of. All of them have initials L.L. 3) What relation is Mon-el (from the Legion of Superheroes) to Superboy and what material was his bane? They're not related, but Superboy thought at one point that they were brothers (hence Mon-el's name, the Mon because Superboy met him on a Monday, and El being Superboy(Kal El)'s family name). Mon-el is something of a big brother figure to Superboy. Mon-el is vunerable to radioactive rays from lead. 4) Who were the original 3 members of the Legion of Superheroes? Saturn Girl, Lightning Lad and Cosmic Boy. I can't think of any of their real names off hand. 5) What is the origin of the Bizarros? A duplicator ray invented by some dippy inventor(again, I can't think of the name) only made imperfect(to say the least) duplicates. It was used on Superman to make Bizarro number 1, and eventually used to make large numbers of Bizarro Supermen, Lois Lanes, Jimmy Olsons, etc, who went off and colonized their own planet (changing it from round to cube shaped on a suggestion from, I beleive, Jimmy Olson).

The imperfect duplicating ray was invented by Prof. Potter.
