"Another super villain in a non-super hero book."
"That's the problem with being from the future... it keeps changing."
"Thank you.I followed that on the Byrne Robotics page and I have every intention of purchasing Elsewhen!"
"Something else just occurred to me. If you're a fan of Claremont/Byrne era X-Men, the first volume of John Byrne's Elsewhen (an alternate post-Phoenix Saga reality) is slated for release June 23. A link to online, uninked pencils for 32 issues…"
"I think that's supposed to Luthor on the cover, but it IS a humor book, no doubt."
"ANOTHER new Legion? My god, did Superman or Spider-Man get THIS MANY reboots? That's part of why I'm quitting... they keep restarting the series!"
"Thanks! I'll check them out! (Mark Waid on Batman? Yes please!)"
"I can second the recommendation for Batman and Robin: Year One. It's a joy. Also, The Veracity Trap is great. And I've enjoyed the one issue of Assorted Crisis Events I've read. But if you're looking for one last Legion story for the road, they're…"
" "Something intriguing to go out on," eh?
For DC, I'm enjoying Supergirl and Superboy (Action Comics). You might also enjoy the recently-completed Batman & Robin: Year One by Mark Waid and Chris Samnee.

Hey guys! I've kinda given up collecting comics - too expensive and too confusing. But I want to go out on something intriguing* and to me, Stargirl and Justice Society kinda look like it. Is it worth quitting after getting these two TPB's or is…
"Here's my transition cover. One last time, JANUARY 1961 - BIRTH MONTH. And not a super villain to be seen."
" JANUARY 1961 - BIRTH MONTH. The one behind the Kryptonite men was Lex Luthor, so this cover doesn't quite qualify for a transition cover to next month..."

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
