Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

What was the name of Kal-El's wife ? Can I assume that she was supposed to be an amalgam of Lana and Lois ? Did Dana Delaney do the voice? ( DD was the voice of Lois in TAS ).

Yes, Dana Delaney did that voice.

I was wondering about mystery wife as well. I wasn't sure if she was somebody that actually existed in canon, or totally made up for this episode. And was that dog supposed to be superdog? What about Van-el?

Wolfram, very little of this was made up for this episode. Though in the original story from which it was adapted, Robin (pre-Crisis Jason Todd) is there (it's his first time meeting Wonder Woman, leading Bats to look at him and say, "Think clean thoughts, chum."), and the rose is a gift from Bruce to Clark. The situation on Krypton was also more messed-up, etc., etc..

Though, I should add she's still an in his head creation.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

Oh, crap, I forgot that was airing this past week.

I figured that the whole Normal life fantasy was just that -- a fantasy because you see where he lives? Not at all like that.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Hayden, there's a torrent up at suprnova, if you're into that sort of thing.

Thanks PMM. Though I found the change they made having Bruce give Soop just cash for his birthday was human and very funny. When they focused on Mongo I thought I heard screaming. Any idea from the comics what his fantasy was?

Wolfram: Mongul's fantasy was of conquering. I don't have my copy with me, so I'll give the detailed version when I'm home.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

So WW just fought it off? Is this because she was stronger than Batman? Or maybe that she had nothing to give it?
