Hmm. I wonder about hair.

Ah. It does seem to be problematic.
Superman at the Barber Shop Homages by Wayne Boring, Neal Adams, John Byrne & Terry Dodson.
I love comic covers (ilovecomiccovers.tumblr.com)
Harley seems to have a boner while doing that.
Have you tried using pedicure scissors rather than nail clippers?
The Pro had a funnier take on the same basic idea:
Hancock (2008) had a similar bit, with the titular character blowing a few holes in his roof during a one-night-stand.
I think this was also a scene in Hancock, the movie with Will Smith.
I rate it 3/5. If it had some twintowers the score would double
I distinctly remember some rendition of Superman where they showed him "shaving" by reflecting his laser/heat vision off of a mirror.
Both comic artists have some misapprehension about how solidly a plane's wings are attached.... maybe they're Boeings.
Another thing is that if you get past the initial ka-pow! moment, the real issue would be how super are those swimmers? They might work like heat seeking missiles.
Why they so yellow Clark
Trashy version
I swear I read a thought experiment on this topic decades ago in a Penthouse or Playboy.
You think he does this for his asshole hair?
if Superman had toenail clippers capable of cutting through his nails, they wouldn’t shoot off at insane speeds.
One word: TEC
Disagree. Yes, normal clippers would just bend and break but let's say the clippers are from Krypton (maybe some basic accessories were in the space pod he was send it or whatever) and can in fact cut his toenails. When a normal human cuts his toenails those will sometimes shoot off and fly a meter or two. The joke is that for forces involved in cutting Superman's toenails are so big that the clipping would take down an airplane. I think the "shoot off with huge energy" part is in fact possible. I don't think that a tiny piece of really dense matter traveling at huge velocity would cause this kind of damage though. It would be more like a bullet, passing straight through and leaving a tiny hole behind. Or exploding and leaving a crater if the thing it hits is also really dense I guess.
It seems not even superman can escape toenail fungus
probably a little blue kryptonite, the blue turns off his powers, the green one makes him sick.
I've read for years about this scene being written, but not included. Imagine my surprise when I found out that it was not only filmed, but made easily available online!
Damn, is that some kryptonite toe clipper?
