Seriously, you think you'd want to double-check the latch on your case if you're going to pull a stunt like this: Richie Rich Gems #1 (September 1974)

Just to reiterate: I didn't dood it . Can't say why you all would think this was one of mine. (HINT: If you find yourself offended by a specific entry, chances are I wrote it.) And now...some random things here and there: Chris Sims and Eugene Ahn present a new episode of the War Rocket Ajax ...

I was poking through Dark Horse's new Casper the Friendly Ghost 60th Anniversary hardcover when I happened upon the above scene. I had no idea Casper even had a ghostly mother. In discussing this with pals Sean and Dorian on Wednesday, the idea was briefly floated whether this meant that ...

Don't let the Riverdale kids see the "Joe Blow" story, Superguy! Then again, looks like Superguy is asleep, there, unless he's using his x-ray vision to peer through his eyelids and through Zap 's back cover to look at the pages inside, since that comic is totally being held closed. ...

General consensus about that ad from yesterday is that it's Mort Drucker, which is someone I'd actually briefly considered until I discarded that thought for no real good reason. One person had my back on my Angelo Torres guess, thankfully, so it wasn't just me! One person mentioned what an Al ...

So there I was, going through my collection
of early-to-mid-1970s teen celebrity magazines, like I like to
do, when I came across something interesting and perhaps funnybook-related in the December 1973 issue of 16 Magazine . One of the things teen ...

Now, about that poster from yesterday ...that image was taken from the cover of Superman: The Man of Steel #49 (Oct. 1995), and, as Tom and others noted in the comments, the pic certainly evokes a Batman feel. The story inside isn't particularly moody or Batman-ish, as it involves Superman ...

Still going through my disc-by-disc viewing of Batman: The Animated Series ...just finished watching the initial Ra's al Ghul two-parter written by the villain's co-creator Denny O'Neil. It was quite the globe-trotting adventure, tightly plotted and very exciting, and, yes, it ends with ...

So I was going through some of my boxes the other night and came across a couple of these pack-in comics Dark Horse produced for the early 1990s Aliens action figure series. They're 16 page mini-comics, measuring about 4 1/2 by 4 inches, centered around whatever character/critter figure with ...

I own a pog: 'Course it's something sorta Swamp Thing-esque. Also, I didn't realize just how pixelated the thing was 'til I blew it up good and big here for the site. Frankly I'd expect a little better quality control on my rushed-out and cheaply-made fad-exploiting pieces of cardboard.

I'm still in a partial Low Content Mode on the site, here...so I thought I'd show off a few buttons I've picked up for the collection in recent months. Above is, of course, a button for The Critic , starring Jon Lovitz. That was a generally amusing show, I thought. Here are a couple of ...

So, that new DVD release of the 1988 Ruby-Spears Superman cartoon ...I've only watched episode #1 on the first disc so far, and I'm surprised at just how... primitive it all seems, especially considering it was on the air only about four years prior to the debut of Batman: The Animated Series . ...

Blah blah blah Chris Sims blah Eugene Ahn blah blah blah new episode of the War Rocket Ajax podcast blah blah James Lucas Jones of Oni Press blah blah. So give it a listen! Today is the DVD release of the 1988 Ruby-Spears Superman cartoon that I remember reading about in the fan press at the ...
