Superman has always been Superman's pal.
Man, I love spotting your typos.

Actually that typo is in the solicits.

And not only is it a typo, but it's wrong.  For a lot of years there, Superman was actually his own worst enemy.  ;D

Wow, I thought it was a bit weird. As you say, it's plain wrong; everybody knows Superman hates himself.
