You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Ooh, yeah that's good. I think my Neil Adams page would be bare-chested, hairychested Batman confronting Ra's Al Ghul.

See, I thought he looked kinda dumb because he was still wearing his cowl. Also, that issue had the kiss with Ra's's daughter, again barechested w/cowl, but still hot.

Speaking of comic art, here's (most of) my GF's collection: [link] Her grail piece is the autopsy spread from Who Killed Retro Girl. She was asked to be on a panel at last years' Comic-Con as a collector of recent comic art. So proud!

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

Her grail piece is the autopsy spread from Who Killed Retro Girl.

Good choice. Iconic in a lot of ways.

Did you see that she has her grail? Did I mention the proud part? [link]

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

GF's collection

Move to NC. I swear to doG we won't get too many nosefingerprints on the pretties.

Hee! She has a pretty awesome collection, if I do say so myself. As for NC, we're still considering it...

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Hmm, one of my favoritest ever pages was during Claremont and Byrne's early run of X-Men, where Wolverine has been left for dead in the sewers by the Hellfire Club's face-masked minions, and he's looking up at daylight, so that the light of the grate is on his face, and with his claws bared is vowing revenge.

And then you had to wait an entire month to find out what happened next... which led, in fact, directly into the Dark Phoenix storyline, so things went even more to hell than you expected.

I may have been young and innocent in those days ("the golden age of anything is when you're fourteen") but damn that was a good comic book series. SIGH

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

There's a Wolverine/Power Pack issue of the X-Men, and I'm blanking on the artist, but there were lots of wires, and not much speaking (I think Logan goes feral, and Katie Power helps him snap out of it) and I remember each page being a joy.

Same goes for many of the pages of Ronin, but my memory can't narrow it down much more.

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.

Claremont couldn't write dialogue for shit. Or maybe that was just dialogue in general was shit in those day. I just barely re-read the Dark Phoenix saga, and it was painful. What HAPPENED was awesome, but the talking was horrible.

Ronin was fantastic. Had to rebuy it recently. Now, I seem to remember that Camelot 3000 was really good, too. Am I confused about that? Can't seem to find it anywhere.
