Link NSFW. As long as there have been comics, there have been people imagining what happens when Superman and Lois Lane have sex. Larry Niven's "Man of Steel, Woman of Kleenex" set the standard, with a sobering, scientific look at Kal-El's supersonic baby paste, and the potentially horrific effects of a human/Kryptonian hybrid pregnancy.
