I was both pleased and excited to discover that “The Man Who Ended Batman’s Career” (the visual inspiration for the Starman of 1951) from Detective Comics #247 (and reprinted in Batman Annual #4) was reprinted again in the DC Comics Classics Library
Read more…Okay, I have a question about the Red Hulk that's really kind of stupid, but it's just something I'm wondering about. It can't be asked without discussing the identity of the Red Hulk, which I'm assuming everyone knows at this point, but just in case

Ummm---Interesting?
Issue 50 of the book came out this week, concluding the story that began around the time of 9/11, and ends close to the present day.

Hey guys. Long time no see. You've moved on me since I've stopped by. Opening the store in Sept 2006 has put a crimp in my "getting lost on the message boards for hours at a time" time. I need some advice and I know this is the place to get an an
