RIP Margot Kidder



" You've got me?? Who's got YOU?!! "
The coolest, hell, the ONLY Lois Lane worth mentioning, Margot Kidder sadly passed away yesterday.
As I have increasingly, depressingly said many times over the last year or so, there goes another little piece of your childhood.
I remember me & Philbo getting the bus to Cambridge to see Superman The Movie, in a time where was no such thing as superhero films, or even the wildest dream that there ever would be.
And we were both knocked out by how right just about everything in it was, but especially how totally, completely right Chris Reeve & Margot Kidder were.
Margot's Lois was sexy, sassy, smart and cynical, a force of nature even Supes had trouble keeping up with, and if she wasn't my first crush, well, she was only just behind Elizabeth Montgomery & Lindsay Wagner.
So it seems appropriate to post the last regular issue of Lois Lane's Bronze Age run here today, a story which is just as random and bizarre as, well... every other issue of Lois Lane. Just the way we like her. Wouldn't Margot have had a field day playing this one?
