Next up Melissa D. Nelson with Almost, beyond, or alongside fandom? An alternative frame for QAnon #FanLIS2025
There are increasing mentions and interest in pink kryptonite in both canon and fanfiction. The use of pink kryptonite raises significant questions of consent for Superman. #FanLIS2025
In some of these fanfic, other characters use pink kryptonite or their own abilities to impact Superman. #FanLIS2025
Fanfic featuring pink kryptonite tends to also incorporate other obscure elements from Superman/DC. #FanLIS2025
Ue and Starzomski-Wilson are discussing 3 fanfiction texts, undated but apparently from the 90s, and it’s hard to tell from a particular fanfiction which canonical representation of pink kryptonite it’s responding to. #FanLIS2025
In a couple of comics, pink kryptonite causes Superman to be attracted to Jimmy Olsen. In a short Justice League cartoon, pink kryptonite turns Superman into a woman. In an episode of Harley Quinn, pink kryptonite is reported to “swap gender.” #FanLIS2025
