Synopsis for "Old Men Talking in Bars"
This story is reprinted from Superman 80-Page Giant 2011 #1.
Perry is drinking his sorrows away in a bar. JSA's Wildcat is there too. Both are a little down on their respective son's decisions. Keith White is moving out of Metropolis it seems and that's hit Perry hard. Perry tells Ted that though he might not remember it, they met a long time ago.
During a bout between Wildcat, Ted Grant and Guardian, Jim Harper covered by a junior reporter Perry White Intergang attack. Of course the good guys win the day but the thrill of the adventure spurred Perry to leave Metropolis and travel the world as a journalist. A journey that led full circle back to the Daily Planet.
Wildcat and Perry think back to their journey and how they too followed a similar path to the one their children are walking now. Perhaps in years to come Keith and Tommy will return home one day.
