Back in 1961 DC Comics reported on the findings of an IRS trawl through the files.
THIS IS AMAZING! WE HAVE NO RECORD THAT SUPERMAN HAS EVER PAID TAXES.
After a cursory review agent Brand presents our hero with a demand for $1billion and promises charges from the FBI if he can’t meet the deadline.
After a series of adventures Superman still fails to come up with the cash but Brand’s boss discovers a loophole involving the big man’s dependents. What are the chances of that happening in HMRC in 2008 eh? He’s not so “super” to know that he should have taken some early advice and get all this sorted out without the hassle from Brand.
