(Note that as of 1976 comic book writers still knew the difference between cardinal and ordinal numbers)

Things have not exactly progressed as planned, eh? Other predictions in this comic that were way off base:

• A female American president in 1990 (presumably elected in1988)
• A stong, threatening Soviet Union in 1990, including an attempted nuclear war (foiled by Supes, bien sur).
• Video phones in 1990
• 3-d TV in 2001
• The eastern seaboard merging in to one megalopolis (named, naturally, "Metropolis") in 2000.
• An evil thrid-world power orchestrating the fall of the U.S. and terrorizing New York... oh... wait a minute...!
