Superman's Getting a Brand New Secret Identity
For over 70 years, Superman has hidden behind a single secret identity: Clark Kent. But now that the comics have re-exposed Clark Kent to the DC universe, the Man of Steel needs a new alter-ego. And so, for the first time in his history, Superman has a new secret persona.
Now that Superman (and Clark) are taking the heat for Lois’ story leaking his alter-ego, Kal-El has had to go into hiding and lay low. Fired from the Daily Planet when his co-workers discover they’d been in grave danger simply by being in Clark’s vicinity all the time, and facing persecution from the Government, Superman has vanished... and replaced himself with a mild-mannered trucker.
Yes, Clark Kent is now Archie Clayton! It doesn’t quite have the same ring to it, does it? Although admittedly, the throwback to the idea that people simply don’t notice that Superman is Superman because Kal-El slouches is pretty good.

How is it going to stay a secret if DC keeps revealing it to the press?

You are a dirty little boy,Short Round. That sounds like a line from the upcoming musical version of Temple of doom. Written by Pete Townsend

I'm glad that DC is hiring writers so with it and informed on modern society that they were smart enough to give him a career that is in no way heavily regulated by the government or requiring specialized personal identification.
