It’s a bird! It’s a plane! No, it’s the big cheeses from DC Comics and their lawyers who want some of that “Krypto-Nate” green too!
Nate Robinson and his Krypto-Nate alter-ego have become such a phenomenon, DC Comics, the originator of Superman, wants a piece of the action, The Post has learned.
Two days after the 5-7½ Robinson spectacularly won the Slam-Dunk competition during All-Star weekend, the NBA announced plans to release a green Krypto-Nate T-shirt for sale at the NBA Store and NBA.com.
For The Love Of Pete — Myers! What were the NBA marketing guys thinking? It’s not like they run a small silk screening shop that prints on American Apparel, that DC would over look. It’s probably safe to say the NBA will now probably hold off on any plans of creating a blue, red and yellow Dwight Howard jersey too.
It would only be a Super bad idea.
