Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

The Top 10 Marvel Comics of the 1970s.

The Seventies were weird.

And An Elf--With a Gun! should totally be a T-shirt.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

The Top 10 Marvel Comics of the 1970s.

I had every single one of those.

The Seventies were weird.

Pfft, and they didn't even include Killraven or Warlock or Deathlok the Destroyer.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

I read all of those, too, including Howard, Killraven and Deathlok! Though I loved Barry Smith's art better than Buscema's in Conan, I loved his work in the other books.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Savage Sword of Conan was officially my first comic--thanks to my older cousin. Between that and his copies of the John Carter series, he single handedly got me into comics and sci-fi when I was 11.

Audio: Dan Clowes on other cartoonists.

Clowes' opinion on Al Capp doesn't surprise me.

Clowes is a true connoisseur of bitterness. Love his stories about Capp, Hogarth, Ditko and Wood.

That Ditko story was just perfect.
