"The only other new comics I bought this week (that I haven't posted about elsewhere) are Six of Us #2 and Wonder Woman #38, both written by Tom King."
"ISSUE #11 - "Plant Kingdom" by Mark Russell and Victor Alpi
This is about two exobiologists specializing in panspermia, the theory that life on Earth began in outer space. They are called in, along with the founder and CEO of Kwiztek, a military…"
THAT was disappointing. Not only does Miracleman (we'll call him "Marvelman") appear in only two pages (pp. 10-11), he's not even Mike Moran. He's actually David Colton, who is one of the post-whatever Captain Americas.…"
"ACTION COMICS #1103 - "Lex Luthor: Year One" - Part One
As a boy, Lex Luthor lived in Shelby, Kansas with his father, Lionel, and his mother, Leticia. His mother was an engineer, but his father was barely literate. He worked on a plow blade…"
"That was pretty good, actually. It's not necessarily my Superman, but it could well be someone's. It begins with Clark and Lois swimming in a secluded rainforest. Lis swims topless while Clark wears the "trunks" part of his costume (he even draws…"
As is the case with Batman, Flashpoint/New52 drove me away from Superman as well, but every once-in-a-while I dip a tow into the water just to check the temperature. This looks to be a "jumping on point" (plus I want to find…"
Reprints "A Doghouse for Superman," "Superboy Meets Superman," "The Alien Who Conquered Superman," "The Bride of Futureman," "The Outlaws From Krypton," "The Boy Who Killed Superman," "Rip Van Superman" and "The Menace of…"
"Well, I suppose it depends on how you define "book length story." Superman #140 ("The Son of Bizarro") and Superman #141 (Superman's Return to Krypton"), both from The Silver Age Superman Omnibus v2 alone, were both billed on the cover as "A Great…"
"SUPERMAN #149 - "The Death of Superman"
This is one of very few comics that I bought as a kid that I still have. It’s been a long time since I read it. The missile launches by the underworld are a little “out there,” but I think that Supergirl…"
"CHAPTER TEN
"He's a Russian, all right, but I think he's... developmentally disabled."
It's been a while since I've seen the movie (this part of it, anyway), but I seem to recall a much less "PC" term being used onscreen than McIntyre uses here.…"
The best of the MST3Ks are those that spoof movies that are legitimately trying to be good
Then there are the ones that deserve to be spoofed
Finally are the ones so bad that not even being spoofed can save them
"Superman does say, "But girls... dueling is against the law! I don't approve of it! I can't let this duel take place!" OTOH, the Silver Age Superman also dearly loves his practical jokes. What I can't understand is how Lois's newspaper and Lana;s TV…"
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
PS: Re: the puppy comment--yes, I know this will be publicly on your wall, but I'm betting Himself never pays attention to these. Also, there may be a better way to message you but I don't see anything else.
