What if he did? First of all, he'd have to fly all the way to the Asteroid Belt to get one, unless there just happens to be one floating by Earth (and btw, one won't pass Earth until 2029). Even at Superman's amazing speed of "faster than a speeding bullet" (let's say three times the speed of a bullet, or a total of 1.65 mi/s, assuming a standard 0.22 rifle muzzle speed of 2900 ft/s), it would take "Supes" 2.17 years just to reach the Asteroid Belt. Can he stay in space that long? He'd be gone a total of about 4.3 years, assuming he can sustain his fantastic speed.

Personally, I think Supes should just fly out West and pick up a boulder out of a canyon. That seems a whole lot easier.

Ha, you ignorant moron, you forgot that Superman can GENERATE an asteroid out of thin air! Don't you remember the "Degenerate Helix" series of comics when Supes, Colonel Foambuns, and Aquaman captured that asteroid-generating complex that the Pooviniians had set up on the Moon? Supes kept the controls to that and he can manufacture asteroids at will! So he doesn't need to fly to the Asteroid Belt! God, you ignorant swantoon, read your comics!

Supes has infinite power. He could fly there in 0.1 microseconds if he wanted to. He could make the Sun explode just by thinking about it.

Yeah, your mom's a lot easier too. Take that! Ooooh, chapped your butt! Har har har!
