I noticed the Superman in Kevin's apartment in Bizarro Jerry. I didn't get a good look at it, but was there anything backwards/reversed/opposite about it ?

Well it's a statue of Bizarro Superman.

I clearly need education on Bizarro Superman. Looked pretty much like a regular Superman to the uninformed, like me.

I'm not up on this either. The most obvious change would be to reverse the direction of the lightning bolt on his tunic.

Bizarro Superman has got super humor (from "The Stocktip").

Bizarro looks just like Superman (same basic appearance, same costume, etc.), but slightly different: his face is all blocky with no curves, and the S on his chest is backwards. I don't recall the Bizarro statue in question, but I imagine on TV it would look identical to a Superman statue unless it was in a close-up. In fact, perhaps the set dressers realized such small differences wouldn't be visible and just used the same Superman statue from Jerry's set.

For an irreverent look at Bizarro (and the cheesy 1970's "SuperFriends" cartoon), check out SeanBaby's SuperFriends site: http://www.seanbaby.com/superfriends/bizarro.htm
