So, check it out 'chere. We'll be posting a new page every Wednesday!
So, yesterday I was talking about the disturbing situation that arises when one gets all romantic and what-not with someone who is the exact duplicate of one's cousin. I asked that we not see it again. So naturally, long-time reader MarvelX42 ignored my wishes thusly:
Yup. Guess who it really is.
It gets worse. Here's a little blurb from Action Comics #289:
I'm sorry, but some things are better left unsaid. If you're attracted to someone, especially if that person is a blood relative, you really should keep that under your figurative hat.
And yes, I know some countries think this is perfectly okay. This is all in fun, folks!
See you tomorrow!

Hee hee. Aint I a stinker?
I've had that second panel framed on my wall for years.
Actually, I hate to skeeve everyone out, but it's perfectly legal to marry your 1st cousin in most states right here in the US. Here's a state-by-state breakdown:
