Ok I was wondering. If they had phonebooks on kryipton where would I find Superman's number ? Under the K's or the E's ?
Superman
Character » Superman appears in 18942 issues.
Sent to Earth as an infant from the dying planet Krypton, Kal-El was adopted by the loving Kent family and raised in America's heartland as Clark Kent. Using his immense solar-fueled powers, he became Superman to defend mankind against all manner of threats while championing truth, justice, and the American way!
Superman in the Phonebook ?
W for who cares
seriously though since he was a part of the House of El I would assume his surname was El....so I guess E
@0n1zuka: Ok ok so let me see if I got this right. Even the name Kal-El has a Hyphen in it its still counts as two words ?
I think even though his House name is El, Kal-El is still one word. I've always pronounced it Kallel. I think when they call him Kal it's the equivalent to calling a person named Christopher, Chris.
If my logic here holds water then as each Kryptonian technically only has one name I think Kal-El would be in the phone book under K.
@0n1zuka: Ok so again even if a word has a Hyphen in it it still counts as two words ? So If Shang-Chi was in the phonebook his name would be under C and not S ? What About Hyperion I think his birth name is Zhib-Ran. That means he will be under R ? or Noh-Varr he would be under V not N ?
@Kid_Omega_Prime: Hyphenated words are one word, but if Superman put his name in a phone book, it would be under E since El is his last name. Same for Shang-Chi, Zhib-Ran, and Noh-Varr, if the second word is their last name.
Sorry about my earlier post, I was wrong about it being two words.
Ok here is the reason I asked its because i'm making a list of some of my favorite heroes and on the "K" section I need 7. 5 On DC and 2 on Marvel. So for for DC I have Superboy, Cosmic Boy, Ted Kord and Spartain. For Marvel I have Hellion and Kaine. Now if superman is in the "E" section I could add Starman (Thom Kallor) see my delema.
@r3d_rob1n: Well I was going to put Superboy in the "P" section for Project 13 but I dissided to put him in the "K" section for Kent. I gess I could put Superman in the "K" section to but I would have to kick off ether Starman or Cosmic Boy ? Oh maybe Ted Kord and put a different human somewere else. IDK ? : (
