When Lana decided to run for President of the United States, the Giant Krypto-Ants were behind her all the way.
Their fund-raising picnics were spectacularly successful, as giant green glowing ants forcibly recruited donors from nearby streets and buildings, stuffed them with cake and coffee, and then appropriated all their worldly belongings to help finance Lana's presidential campaign.
Hundreds of millions of ants voted for her on Election Day. People trying to vote for her opponent were frightened off or eaten.
Unfortunately, on her first full day in office, poor President Lang was assassinated by an angry gun-wielding horse.
Darn.
Lex was removing his tie when he finally heard the window opening.
'How was your evening?' he asked, without turning.
"Fine. Stopped a landslide. Got a broken oil tanker to shore before it could... How was your day?"
"Whose tanker?"
"Read tomorrow's paper, Lex. You know I can't -- "
"I know." Lex liked the slithery sound the cape made coming off. "Lois called me 'glabrous' in the paper today. I blame you."
"I've apologized about that Word-of-the-Day calendar."
Lex smiled over his shoulder. "Anything else?"
"They elected me leader of the JLA," Clark beamed.
"Toldja fresh-baked muffins would do the trick."
