I dunno; “walked out on a movie”? Definitely means you left before it ended. But “I walked out of the movie going ‘wtf’” means you saw the whole movie and I think has for a while?

As a talented guy gone wrong once rapped: I’m surviving! I was drinking, now I’m driving… Seriously, though: very busy but ok! How’s by you?

Yeah, understandably, I’m not sure anyone else had the latitude to do what Kirby did—to jump companies and in both cases continue to create new work, not justify his page rate by being on the biggest titles.

All of them get the job done, but I’m surprised the top banger is that x-men reprint issue with Banshee. What a design!

Michael Ontkean should’ve gotten a cutof the profits! (I had to double check to see if he was a known actor by ‘77 and…yep!)

Ah, I meant both *at* the same time. Unless there was overlap in publication , I don’t think Bendis had an X-Men title and Action on the stands the same month/week?

Yeah, Jules Feiffer’s essay in The Comic Book Heroes is super-instructive in this regard! Mentions Grant and the whole relationship between Clark and Lois, The Spirit and his assorted femme fatales, etc.

People did not sleep on this!

It seems to me this free comic is marketing in about the same way the family from The Texas Chainsaw Massacre are gracious hosts. Years of taken-for-granted assumptions have created a nonsensical object to the outside world unless you understand the years of inbreeding that produced it. 4/4

Is there a full page ad for Joker: The World at the end of the comic with the other full page ads for Batman trades? Also no. 3/x
