how bizarro

in superman, bizarro is a misguided twin to the man of steel. everything he says is opposite to what the man of steel would say. so it's kind of like bizarro is playing opposite day. it's called "bizarro logic." the first time bizarro appeared in the comics he was created when superman ran into a duplication ray. however, several manifestations of bizarro have been created. the one i remember most is from superman the animated series, where lex luthor creates a flawed clone of superman. he was able to do this by collecting a sample of superman's blood from a piece of kryptonite.

ever since watching the bizarro episode on superman the animated series, i have always been conscious of my stray dna. often i think about it when i bleed, blow my nose, shed skin, lose hair or go to the bathroom. these are all opportunities for someone to create a bizarro me. i'm not sure why anyone would want to do that, nor is it really possible, but that doesn't stop me from thinking about it.
