Okay… I admit it. I was a bit hung up on Lois Lane when I was a kid.
When one judges the Lois Lane from the comics of the time, one would be hard pressed to figure out why in God’s name anyone would find her vaguely interesting as a “person,” much less a fictional character. She was apparently rather shallow, concerned only with trying to prove her theory that Clark Kent was, in reality, Superman, due to her oft-stated observation that no one “had ever seen them together.” Curiously, Lois’ suspicions never fell upon any of the other millions of people in Metropolis and/or the rest of the United States who’d never been seen with the Man of Steel either. Certainly that process of elimination could have been a full time job for her all on its own.
The fact is that, overall, Lois seemed shallower than the average bassinet.
