Self-portrait with red forehead


I have a Superman read-along book from the late '70s that I, for some reason, felt needed improvement back when I was 6. When Clark Kent became Superman and started fighting Lex Luthor, I colored both guys' foreheads with red marker. My additions didn't stop until after Clark was back in the newsroom where Lois got the treatment too.

I think I remember that I meant that they were mad or meant business.

This is perfect. When I got angry or super emotional as a kid I would get this bright red rectangle on my forehead. It was more between my eyebrows though.
