Comics Has anybody ever considered taking Superman's fingerprints?

[Fantasyartist]

As a long time watcher of CSI(and its Miami and New York spin-offs), i realise that it's unlikely that anybody's ever considered taking the Man of Steel's fingerprints( never mind the fact that his alter-ego Clark Kent has no criminal record anyway, but has anybody thought of doing it?

I keep thinking there was an explanation once as to why this would be infeasible, but I forget exactly what that was.

Most useless post ever.

Uh, would you really think you could "take" his prints, or more likely, just politely ask for them...then sit there numbly when he says "no."

i don't think people think he has a dual identity because he doesn't wear a mask so they won't do it.

That is one of the reasons I figure Superman/Clrak is a guy with a very good build.

That and 225 pounds with under 6% bodyfat (6 pack) at 6'3", is only 1.5" inches taller than Arnold S was in his movie era, and the same weight and bodyfat% he was in the first Terminator.

Regardless of what actor portrays him in a movie, if you could magically make him real using those stats (225 and 6'3" with <6% bodyfat), he would be jacked looking, and the reason a big Clark is not a dead givaway as Superman?

Answer: No one is looking for Superman's secret identity. He wears no mask, and they assume he is Superman full-time.

Why fingerprint anything you saw superman touch? you "know" it was superman who touched it.
