Exactly. Tony Hawks is the ultimate proof that the Clark Kent disguise would work on most people.
He's world renowned, but because he looks like just a regular guy, nobody recognises him, and he's not even trying to disguise himself in any way
He's so regular even you got his name wrong in a comment about him. Unless you're really talking about that english guy who traveled round Ireland with a fridge. I wouldn't call him world renowned though.
No no, it's Tony Hawks, the Pro Skater who had to go underground for some reason.
Didn't even notice that myself - that's definitely ironic, I'll leave that mistake there as it proves my point haha
just gotta spread his legend enough,,,
And most people see Supes from like 50 meters away
Also just look at the scene of Christopher Reeve changing between Clark and Supes.
Exactly. The only people I'd suspect even notice a similarity would be the people that know Clark, but most would probably assume it to be a coincidence at most.
in The Expanse SOOO many people recognize the Deputy Under Secretary of the UN, and know her name.
Honestly, I could have a full on conversation with Kalama Harris where she's introduced as "Ms Harris" and she says "call me Kamala" and I may not twig.
