Superman fans everywhere can breathe a sigh of relief knowing that there is a reason why editor Perry White had Clark Kent covering a football game in Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice.
There are many things in Batman V Superman:Dawn of Justice which upset Superman traditionalists but the idea of Clark Kent covering a football game is one of the most oddly specific.
The point of contention is that Clark Kent had always been a newsman in the original comics, focusing on investigative reports and hard news.
Clark has even been depicted as having played football in high-school before his powers fully developed, in certain versions of his origin story.
