Everybody has issues. Some have back problems, some suffer from depression. In Tom's case, everywhere he goes dead bodies with his face and fingerprints pop up, seemingly from alternate realities. Tom struggles to make…"
Morgan Stone, president of Smallville Bank & Trust, retired after 40 years. Will Parmenter from the head office took charge and immediately found the mortgages of eight loacl farms in arrears, including the Kents. Clark finds evidence…"
"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…"
A second Christmas-themed (or I should say "holiday-themed" since one of them is about Hanukkah) issue of Shiver Suspenstories for the second year in a row!
"Hark, the headless angels sing! Glory to the be-head-ings!"
"The villain was Maaldor the Darklord, a stock extradimensional menace who appeared in three issues of DC Comics Presents. He was no Mongul!
Frankly, both the Joker and the Phantom Stranger deserved better for their second teamups with Superman!"
"DC COMICS PRESENTS #72 - "Madness in a Dark Dimension"
The premise of this story is built upon the conceit that Superman and the Phantom Stranger need the Joker's help "to guide [them] through the madness of [an] alternate world!" If you don't buy…"
"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…"
The most interesting aspect of this story is that it reiterates the origin story about him cheating to win a jigsaw puzzle contest when he was still a schoolboy. The riddles in this story are so…"

Because we live in The Golden Age of Comics, it is readily available to all who care to read it."
Jeff, I want to thank you and Tracy for the well-wishes you have given me, just to let you know how touching and thoughtful I think it was. I'm happy to tell you that I'm doing much better and I feel about 99% back to normal. Of course, it's easy to recuperate when all I have to think about is getting better while Adam takes every other burden upon himself. Here on Earth-B he has the reputation of being rather a cranky old cuss, but I know he's as sweet as a puppy! Tell him I said that and I'll blame it on the stroke.
Thank you again, Jeff, for thinking of me and do, please, pass my thanks and best wishes on to Tracy.
Happy new year!
Cheryl
