Neil deGrasse Tyson Wins The Snazziest Vest Contest For His Action Comics Appearance

by Jill Pantozzi | 11:20 am, November 6th, 2012


Yesterday we told you astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson had helped DC Comics determine the exact location of Superman’s home planet Krypton. That was pretty cool news on its own but we also learned Tyson would be appearing in this week’s issue of Action Comics to give Superman a helping hand. And here, ladies and gentlemen, is a look at that appearance. Neil deGrasse Tyson, we love you. Click ahead for a few more panels of the astrophysicist in action. 

And in case you’re wondering, yes, he does own that vest.

    Dear God, I love that man! I wish I could have seen his reaction when he first saw that issue :)

    I was a huge fan of Tyson’s for years, thanks to PBS & NOVA, but it wasn’t until I started following the Marysue that I learned what a huge comics geek he was.

    With the vest, it’s possible he’s trying to make Superman’s new costume look less-horrible by comparison.
