"Just (re-) read it. Since it's December 2000, I would not only have read it before, but it would be up in the Comics Cave somewhere. I probably didn't like this one because GL used time travel to un-do death. It's not something even The Spectre…"

"I take it that you assume (as do I) that the "Ladd" surname is a reference to Alan Ladd, right, Captain?
Here's what I said back on Page 103:
No doubt "Ladd" was chosen for Alan's paramour, so that "Alan Ladd-Scott" could be a thing. Because "Alan…"

I have one scheduled for week after next. What's up?
Are you going to write an article on the show Cloak & Dagger, which debuts June 7 on the Freeform cable channel (formerly ABC Family)?
After all these years, that's all I get, "Welcome aboard" ? Geez, it's not like I've only know you longer than any human on this planet outside my siblings. Seriously, I hope all is well. Speaking of siblings, how's Clyde, Bethany and Persilla (sp?)? Hal, Randy and Karen (mine) are still alive and kicking. I hope you're doing OK. My life has been eventful, good and bad. You must be in hog heaven with all the movies finally able to match people's imagination with the CGI and all. Every time I go to one or read a comic, I can't help but think of you, old friend. Yes, you're living rent free in my skull. Stop it. Stop it now...damn, didn't work. I live in Charleston, SC. Great place. Come visit...or else...

Hulk still not sure about this social media stuff, kinda defeats the whole purpose of being an introvert, if you ask Hulk...
Just received a spam message on my profile page from someone named Frank David asking me to invest in his gold mining business.
