Uh oh!

“Mommy, what’s a phone booth?”

“It’s like a cell phone in a glass aquarium, and we get to be the fish.”

Still useful in places with poor signal quality.

That’s nice but Kenny has to stop trying to find him, it won’t end pretty

Uh, that would actually be a stupid and dangerous thing to do. The people who are after him would know exactly how to track him.

What’s the purpose of going into hiding if he’s going to be doing stuff like this?

Sharcane is going low tech. No internet, no cell phones, no digital devices. Can’t be hacked.

Phone booths? Those still exist?

Where is Kenny’s Biological mother? Prison?

But were does he find a phone booth???

Shark Dad must be hiding in 1984, there are no more phone booths!

Are there still phone booths?

Phone booth-A small quiet enclosure to use your cell phone? You could charge for that.

where’d he find a phonebooth?

Superman can become unrecognizable just by putting on glasses; he (formerly) changed in phone booths, which have glass in the walls and doors, so I’m thinking superman will be not be noticed if he changes while just holding a cell phone.

Quick question. Has Kenny aged?

Just check the locations of all remaining operating phone booths and you will have narrowed down the search for Sharkane. There can’t be that many.

How many pay phones are there left in America? 2…3…?

I have not seen a phone booth, or even a pay phone, in years.

I didn’t think phone booths existed anymore with the invention of cell phones.

He found a phone booth?

The man is GOOOOOOD!!

Oh dear! It can’t be good. (I think Delray is going to want to slap Shark upside his head for his stubbornness in keeping in touch with Kenny, despite risks.) (◕o◕)

What phone booth? Haven’t seen any lately.

I know he loves him, but that kid is going to get Shark killed yet.

My favorite scene from Superman I (among many! the best Superman ever!) was when Clark first encountered his first emergency (Lois in the helicopter), and was trying to find a place to change. He stopped for moment at a pay phone, glanced at it very briefly, then went on (and changed at superspeed inside a revolving glass door, if my memory is serving properly). Anyone who grew up with Superman making the change in a phone booth, like me, appreciated that reference greatly.

If Shark lives near a phone booth, that does narrow it down these days.

They still HAVE phonebooths? Wow.
