Special kudos to Randell Gudgel and John Williams, who also correctly guessed the identity of Superwoman but didn’t win the drawing. So close, guys! If you want to know “Who is Superwoman,” check out Supergirl #40, on sale now! We will tell you Annette’s guess of Superman robot was incorrect (even though it makes perfect sense!). She is filing an appeal with the creative team. Star Trek props guru Colin Warde to headline Free Comic Book DayMonday, April 27, 2009

Find out more about what went on behind the scenes in creating Star Trek sets from the last 40 years. Warde will appear from 3 to 5 p.m. Saturday, May 2, at Speeding Bullet Comics, 614 N Porter Ave. in Norman.

That means you only have 5 more days to submit your guesses to Speeding Bullet’s “Who is Superwoman?” Contest! Annette is happy to share her theories with you, dear reader, in case you are hesitant to venture a guess on your own. Clue: Possible lead-lined mask Clue: Kryptonian powers but immune to gold kryptonite Clue: Murdered Agent Liberty and Reactron’s girlfriend Clue: Taking orders from Gen. Sam Lane After seeing Superwoman say “Intruder Alert” while her red eyes lit up and heat visioned Agent Liberty to death, Superwoman gave herself away. She is … a robot! If Superman can make Superman robots in his Fortress of Solitude, it makes sense that Kryptonians on Kandor would be just as handy. Add General Lane’s access to Brainiac technology (which had also tapped into Kandor) and his desire for an super army, and why wouldn’t Gen. Lane create the prototype for an ultimate soldier … Superwoman! Don’t like Annette’s theories? Then, come up with your own, slackers. The grand prize is a Supergirl script signed by writer and Speeding Bullet alumn Sterling Gates! Save up to 75% at Monster Sale this weekendMonday, April 13, 2009
