Cuttings from The Super Dictionary
This is The Super Dictionary:
It was published in 1978. It provides key vocabulary in a manner appealing to children. I like it a lot. Here's a smattering of its dictionary goodness:
I...I don't know what to say. But that's exactly what 'goodness' means.
Green Arrow is crap at sweet nothings.
El Dragon is pretty super. He is totally the right man for this definition.
Hawkman and Hawkgirl are having an unexpected domestic. I feel bad intruding.
- Supergirl is afraid of mice.
- Supergirl has been taken down by a mouse.
- Supergirl has been given a black eye by a mouse.
- Supergirl is winking at a mouse.
- Supergirl is in a non-Euclidean dimension.
Life lesson: it is stupid to drive a car such that you get out through the bottom and fall into the sun while waving a purple brick.
If you can't tell, Batman is splashing into an invisible 2D wall of gunk, which makes the sound 'kazwooo'. Also, we all have sparks of life called 'spirits'. Good to know.
Modern comics are less prudish than the golden age versions, but I've still never seen a 12-year old Supergirl wandering about in her underwear.
The = that. I did not know the.
I bloody hate it when whales steal my shoes.
Batman's such a goofball. Hal Jordan hasn't understood that the joke is his entire arm only being as big as Batman's foot,
What the hell? This is just disturbing.
Should = must. Got it.
I think I'd assume 'fly'. 1970s Lois is such a cow.
Well, duh.

Man, I used to have this book, and it was pretty awesome when I was a kid. Though, I don’t remember “Scream” at all. I would have thought, that, as a kid, I would have woken up screaming thinking about how it would do not good to scream. It would do no good to make a high, loud yell into the night.
I also vote that you should do more. I mean, you didn’t even broach why Lex Luthor stole 40 cakes. That’s as many as four-tens! When you start typing “Lex Luthor” in Google, one of the suggestions is “Lex Luthor stole forty cakes”? No, honestly, it’s a thing, and that’s terrible.
