"SUPERGIRL: One of the few monthly books I'm still getting...
A recommendation I heartily second!
I thought I'd pick it up to see if I could figure out the latest chronology and incarnation of a character I've followed off and on. I decided on the…"

"In the (fourth season) episode of The Beverly Hillbillies I watched most recently (last night), Mr. Drysdale hires a gigolo to keep company with Elly May. (The Clampetts do not know he is a gigolo.) In order to make her more attractive to a…"
"In Romeo & Juliet, it's established that Juliet was thirteen. (Even in Shakespeare's time, this would have been odd.) I daresay that you'll not see many film adaptations with thirteen year-old Juliets"
"In the 1943 Batman movie serial, Robin is clearly not a child. Neither was Billy Batson in "The Adventures of Captain Marvel" nor Stuff in "The Vigilante". And Bucky was dropped in "Captain America"! "
"Well, it was a different world, back then. Things got by in fiction that wouldn't get by, today. Heck, they probably wouldn't've gottern by in the real world, back then. I remember a later era Harold Grey Little Orphan Annie strip where, through…"
"It's probably for the best that Batman wasn't a regular member of the Justice Society so he wouldn't be questioned about having an eleven year-old fighting crime, though the Sandman would later get a pass with Sandy, too.
It does make you wonder…"

"I don't think even other dimwits would want to hang out with Three Dimwits. Especially Doiby, who was reasonably intelligent."
"'BATMAN' #5 Cover date: Spring 1941 On-sale date: April 16, 1941 Cover: Batman by Bob Kane. Appears to be re-worked from the splash page of the anchor story in Batman #4.
Fun facts: There is a facsimile edition of this issue, either for the Joker…"

"I agree. Sorry for my miswording."
"IIRC, the Captain America serial was parodied in Captain America's book precisely because it took a few creative liberties due to its origin as a repurposed Mr. Scarlet feature.
I don't think "parodied" is the right word; "tributed" might be closer…"

"Congo Bill and the Vigilante=supporting characters in Action Comics, Spy Smasher=a supporting character in Whiz Comics: so counting Captain Marvel and Superman (twice), six of these serials came from just two titles. From 1942 the next-most popular…"
"Green Lantern was the first Justice Society member to get a comic sidekick before the Flash got the Three Dimwits and even before Batman was joined by Alfred.

""Stroehm", eh? Could he be one of them Nahrzee agents that were so common in nhem days?"
"Happy hunting!"
"I worry that I won't be able to read the small Lone Wolf & Cub that I have in the years to come due to poor vision; I might not be able to read it now. A larger version would eliminate that worry.
Then you should definitely look at that Spec Spidey…"

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 now part of army of Hulks. A-Bomb, Red-Hulk, She-Hulk, Red She-Hulk, Paisley She-Hulk, Hulkcetera. Hulk in big-budget movies. Hulk on red carpets. Hulk's introversion clearly a ploy to get attention.
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.
