San Diego, Chemistry Dept. Administration Lines: 15 Ah,the weighty matters under discussion! Ph.D. Thesis be damned! First, I would like to thank those who have responded to my questions. I'm not sure about the explanation about how he regains his powers. I was under the impression that the green crystal was an educational tool and not the source of any additional powers. After all, the bad guys had all of Supermans powers without the benefit of a crystal. Its true that the only powers he displayed until he found the crystal were strength and speed but I thought this was because he didnt know he had other powers.(Incidently I think that in the original Superman comic book these powers and invulnerability were all the powers he had;at first he could only "leap great distances in a single bound" and not actually fly)
