Well, of course.

He's Canadian.

What do you expect - he resides at the North Pole for god's sake ...

Oooooohhhhhh, I cannot WAIT to read the Freeper reactions.

Teahadists, not teabaggers.

Don't have to be a tea partier to be upset by this I got several liberal friends who this is irking.

He's an illegal alien anyway.

Guess I'm one of those three people? This year's Action Comics run by Paul Cornell (starring Lex Luthor up until this point) has been great!

Oh, I'm sorry, were we talking about politix?

@5 no, Canada allows for refugees, even if the "Land of the Free" doesn't.

@3 TEABAGGIES! i just made it up, and am quite fond of it. "Fuckin' soggy teabaggies!"

@5-- right, isn't he an illegal alien? (All I know is the Christopher Reeve movie, so maybe I'm mistaken).

Until they make a gay and black super hero ..... I have no interest

@11, if I recall correctly, there was at least one - Goliath - until they killed him off.

I might be making up the "gay" part, though.

Probably a greater percentage of secessionists in the Tea Party than in the normal population.

Wait.

Superman has US citizenship? When did that happen?

I'm sure Clark Kent does. But are they telling us that Superman, as Superman, went through some sort of naturalization process, did the paperwork, and so on? Does he have a separate driver's license and Social Security number as Superman than he does as Clark Kent?

Come on, having him say that he doesn't just serve US interests, and as a powerful being from another planet, he's uniquely suited to seeing the whole planet AS a planet, fine.

This is just stupid.

@15: I, too, am disappointed at the lack of factual, administrative rigour regarding the naturalization status of the super-strong flying alien who shoots beams of heat from his eyes.

I am fairly certain at one point Superman was given honorary citizenship.
