Methuselah
A guise employed by Superman, consisting of a white robe, beard, and long-haired wig, when he secretly disguises himself as a wrestler, in order to stop the wrestler known as the Ugly Superman from harassing Lois Lane. In his disguise, Superman challenges the dim-witted wrestler at the Metropolis Gym to a series of feats of strength—to which the Ugly Superman is no match for the super-powered Kryptonian. Believing this mysterious wrestler to be some sort of magician, the angered Ugly Superman pulled off his guise. With his true identity revealed, Superman then manages to humiliate and defeat the Ugly Superman in front of Lois and his wrestling peers when the wrestler tries to engage him in a physical fight, where again, he proves no match for Superman (SGLL No. 8/2, Apr 1959: "The Ugly Superman!").
