		September 11th, 2005, 09:22 AM This book needs Bart's opposite number (Inertia) and maybe Match (I know Stephen will like that suggestion), as well as Harm.

		September 12th, 2005, 06:54 AM I don't know how much of a chance we ever have of Max coming back, though, since he's not a Silver Age character, and Silver Age fans are the only ones who seem to matter at DC right now.

	Captain Comics Round Table > Marvel vs DC
		When reading Marvel vs. DC/DC vs. Marvel, I had been keeping "score" all along, knew that DC was "behind" at that point, and that the writer of Aquaman was writing the Aquaman/Sub-Mariner match-up (and had made some hints in the press not to expect the strongest guy to win every battle).
		David requested that one of the DC victories be Aquaman's since he had his own title (that David was writing), which could really use a sales boost.
		Clark Kent Johnson is right! Marvel and DC made no bones about reserving the right to call half the fights themselves in order to facilitate the plot.

		I agree that keeping continuity in tact is a massive undertaking, considering that all of the comics that DC has published are the result of the work of thousands of individuals.
		Comics aren't intended to match up perfectly unless some form of aid is also published to help you do so (and those only last for a month or so - susually during some event).
		DC thought it would be easier to have one simple universe and instead created Earth-Clutter and the multitude of continuity problems.

	Books : Death: The High Cost of Living
		That's not surprising, since Gaiman set the bar so high that not even he can match his own standard all the time.
		Foxglove and Hazel appear as supporting players, making it clear in passing that this is set some months after A GAME OF YOU but before DEATH: THE TIME OF YOUR LIFE.
		Taken by itself, this is a pleasant but undistinguished comic.

	Amazon.com: DC Versus Marvel Comics: Books: Ron Marz,Peter David,Bob Kahan
		I don't have a great deal of interest in any other DC character and almost none in Marvel (with the exception of The Punisher) so this match-up didn't have a great deal of emotional investment for me. However, I DO LOVE COMICS.
		The matchups are lame, rushed, and truly represent the super-hero comics of today, where battle, strategy, and good art work are abandoned for telling a story as quickly as possible.

		Empress, Young Justice and all related characters, names, and indicia are ©2003, DC Comics (a division of Time-Warner Communications), and are used WITHOUT permission.
		Finally Chip reminded me that since these are supposed to be in the Animated universe, I should go for more primary colors and forget trying to match the color of the comic.
		Empress normally wears colors that are hard to match.

	Perpetual Comics Articles
		Given the high regard comics fans have for this series and the timeless suitable-for-all-ages nature of the stories, I don't understand why DC doesn't keep the material in print in one form or another.
		It was the signature work of a man who nurtured comic books, comics characters, and comics creators in the earliest days of the comics industry...and then walked away from his staff job to concentrate on the thing he loved best: cartooning.
		Yeah, Hyde is powerful and twisted, but hardly a match for a sextet of Avengers which included Iron Man, Scarlet Witch, Vision, and Warbird...each of them more than match for him.

	Recycling Bin 11 - Wolverine's Prototype (Mar 1999)
		Amalgam Comics, had they done more research and taken more risks, would have found just the right match for Wolverine in the Archie Goodwin / Walt Simonson Manhunter.
		When DC and Marvel colluded to create the amusing Amalgam line of stories, they filled these tales with blended versions of DC and Marvel characters who had some connection or equivalency.
		Based on tone, popularity, or a connection to Frank Miller, the Amalgam comics joined Wolverine to Batman to create "Dark Claw," a figure that mostly resembled Wolverine but had all the material trappings that Batman uses in his pursuit of criminals.

	OAFE - DC Comics: Prometheus custom figure
		Prometheus' introduction to the DCU at large (he first appeared in a one-shot in which he simply recanted his origin) was the first time in Grant Morrison's JLA that Batman was shown as even slightly fallible.
		With his computer-boosted fighting skills and reflexes, and the ability to exploit his opponent's weaknesses, Prometheus is nearly a match for the JLA on his own.
		This Prometheus was made from a Batman and Robin figure with generous ammounts of artist's clay (another figure I made at school) for the armor.

	Western Comic Books
		"Johnny Thunder" was previously used by DC for the name of a sort-of-super-hero, a somewhat comic character of the 1940's.
		Johnny Thunder works somewhat irregularly as a deputy for his Sheriff father, and most of the Sheriff characters in the comics report somewhat diffusely to the town fathers, although this is an infrequent event that is rarely depicted.
		The fact that comics have always been a color medium, while film and TV of that era were often in black and white, made such standard clothes more feasible in the comics.

		Sunder figured he was giving Rick Lawrence a special power -- whenever Rick Lawrence would fight a stronger opponent, his strength would automatically increase to match his enemy's.
		ACTION COMICS #502 features everybody’s favorite unintentionally kitsch rampaging monster, the Galactic Golem!
		Sunder the scientist decided to dispose of his failure, and Sunder's thugs took Rick Lawrence down to the docks to murder him.

		A master criminal strategist, the Penguin uses his considerable intellect to gain wealth and power through less than legal means.
		The Batman has defeated the Penguin in each of their numerous clashes, but the Dark Knight still considers Mr.

	Orion - PopMatters Comic Book Review
		With New God Orion regaining a sense of elevated profile through his membership in the popular Justice League of America, the DC Comics suits figured that Orion would be the best bet for a Fourth World revival.
		Within the first issue, Simonson has Orion questioning whether he is indeed the son of evil Darkseid, Darkseid in apparent possession of the 'anti-life equation', and Orion heading for the prophesised match-up with the powerful ruler of Apokolips.
		More than that, Simonson's characterisation of Orion as the tragic hero is spot on, as he rails against his own dark heritage with the fanatical zeal of a believer and the reckless disregard of an infidel.

	Movie Poop Shoot - COMICS 101
		The Joker’s popularity in the 1970s peaked with an unprecedented move by DC Comics: in 1975, the Joker was given his own monthly series.
		Joker proves to be a physical match for Batman, and the Joker manages to escape, and goes on to make his next radio threat, this time to Judge Drake, who had once sent him to prison.
		As the Joker explains, he survived the swim through the chemical vats thanks to the oxygen tank built into the hood, but when he emerged, he was startled to find that the chemicals had permanently dyed his skin chalk-white, his lips red and his hair green.
