"Another reprint cover by Stupendous Sal!"
"This is my transition cover between April and May. Boy, doesn't Sal Buscema draw the Marvel Universe pretty?"
"Aw no. Don was a Legionnaire in good standing. RIP Don."
"Lead in any quantity is fatal to Daxamites; its effects don't go away. That lead shackle is a death sentence to Mon-El. THAT'S cruel and unusual!

Comments
Eric,
All I can say is "Aw, damn!" For weeks now, I've been meaning to state in a comment to one of my Deck Log articles how much I appreciate your unflagging support and your incisive commentary on my column. I kept putting it off because I never found the right place, or was too busy to add a comment, or any of the hundred of things we put off doing stuff we should.
Of all the members of this board, you were my most loyal reader, and compliment or criticism or just plain commentary, I always looked forward to seeing you post a comment. You're one of the Silver-Age experts who kept me on my toes.
So I shall miss your presence here, probably more than most. But it's your decision, friend. I don't stand in your shoes. Each of us has to determine what is right for himself and then act accordingly. I'd prefer you stay, but if you feel you have to go, then go with my blessing. And my regrets.
Godspeed,
Adam
