Don't know if anybody will like this one. My own fan boy creation. I've always been a Golden Age fan. This includes the Earth Two Superman Kal-L. Became a fan after seeing him in All Star Squadron 36-37, and the first issues of Infinity Inc. He's of course supposed to be Siegal and Shuster's original Golden Age Superman. Long before the net, I bought the reprints in the archive editions, the newspaper strip reprints from Kitchen Sink, and the radio show on cassette and CD. He was technically the version that launched DC and the comics industry, yet he came to a bad end. Beaten to death by that punk Superboy Prime, then turned into a rotten zombie in Blackest Night. Couldn't even get a decent reburial since his body was destroyed in the end. So ,in my fanboy mind, I imagined a scenario where his soul is resurrected by The Presence (DCs version of God) to become a Spectre to guard the Multiverse. This made sense to me since Siegal co created the original Spectre, and this would prevent confusion with the modern Superman. If Power Girl can still be used, why not Kal-L? Imagine him wandering the Multiverse confronting the Nazi Superman of Earth 10, or the one from Injustice. Would be cool stories. Had Mego Parts from lots I bought and a Superman head that needed repainting, so why not Spectreize it. Finally decided to do it after seeing color footage of Superman Day from the 1940 World's Fair on YouTube. I know there was Convergence, but I boycotted DC during the New52. Even though I didn't like his end, I'm going from original continuity. Body is original type 2. Painted the hands and boots green. Used dark green cloth. Kal-L deserves some respect. He should keep watching on all the DC realities. Thanks for reading my rant.
