The “World Finest” Hair Gel

I was searching for a new hair gel at our local supermarket and found the coolest gel ever created. I could even say “World’s Finest” if you know what I mean.  Check it out:

So this may be Clark Kent’s secret when he changes costume and fixes his hair so that no one would recognize him. On the contrary I think that the gel would be more useful to Batman’s alter ego, Bruce Wayne since he is wearing a cowled suit.

For those non comic book fans, World’s Finest (initially World’s Best Comics) is a comic book series published by DC where in the stories usually involves two of the main stars of the franchise, Superman and Batman (hence the gel pun).  The cover below is one of the early versions of their team up.

The popularity of the stories also created a lot of titles outside the comic book genre. One of my favorites is the animated series crossover in the Superman The Animated Series which was set just before the story of The New Batman Adventures series. The 3-part story (episodes #29-31) had the same title, “World’s Finest”.

The newer team up of the epic characters, is now under the Supeman/Batman comic book series (#8 cover below), which also spawned direct-to-video animated movies.
