Superman and Lori Lemaris, from Superman #129, 1959: So, is it wrong that I always liked Lori Lemaris better than Lois Lane? I mean -- a MERMAID. How cool is that?
Good question. Maybe they based her on the mermaid from the old William Powell movie, Mr. Peabody and the Mermaid. In that movie, actress Ann Blythe looked a lot like Lori Lemaris, complete with knees.
You know, like the lyrics from the Beatles song, Yellow Submarine: "Sky of Blue, Sea of Green ..." Indianapolis born and bred. And, yes, green is my favorite color.

Ummm...if she's part fish, why does she have knees?
