Wertham alert! Except that, ironically, that she's looking back on those as the good old days.

@MinervaAlpaca: Argh! What have you done to me? I want to see that more than I can tell you. Was ... was ... was Charles Nelson Reilly there too?

@Gothamite88: Second that. And I was weirdly psyched

@crosis101: Favorite lines from each, from memory so not quite right: (1) "The reward for being Batman is that you get to be Batman;" and (2) "Do you know what radio waves look like?" "No, why?" "Because I do."

the throne room actually looks a lot like some of those mid-late 20th century productions of Wagner's Ring. You either like that our you don't.

@omgwtflolbbqbye: Yep. Not to mention Spiderman. You know, with eight arms, a bazillion clones, and killing his own children to save a geriatric aunt.

@TickMan: At the moment, my favorite Green Lantern story of all time. Of course, I have a 3-year-old.

Of course, the idea that Captain Marvel was a Superman ripoff was eventually affirmed in court. Comics readers have long disagreed, citing the differences in tone between the two series, as well as the speciousness of National's argument — essentially, "they both have capes and big muscles."

@MrSatyre: That particular conundrum always reminds me of a moment in some 70s Avengers episode (they were fighting Kang in an underground tunnel, but that describes about half the 70s).

In the same vein, there's the gambling scene near the beginning of Moonraker, when Bond uses benzedrine to sober up in secret, allowing him to cheat Drax at cards.

Okay, so it's not great. Is it worse than the white unitard? Is it, in any important way, even different from John Byrne's biker look? Nahhh.

Holy $%& — snakes, and frogs, and bees AND bats, at least in the northeast U.S. It's really getting scary.

I'm afraid the post (and many comments) seem to confuse indifference with hostility.

Did they tell her she doesn't get to be on the cover? (Or, come to think of it ... DOES she?)

Obviously a hack, and a poorly-written one. Still, Ann does seem crazier than usual lately, what with "deny women the vote" and "perfect the Jews" coming within a few days of each other. I think she's heading for a Britney-like crackup. The next symptom: she stops wearing panties.
