Why, I do believe it's time for early Silver Age comics!
But enough about me, how as your weekend?
Got some more Curt Swan for you - only two, but one of them's a full issue of Jimmy Olsen, so that's something to write home about.

Swan drew all the Jimmy Olsen stories, so I'll post the whole thing for funsies.
That's enough of the Silver Age for today...
Terence Young, who directed Dr No, From Russia With Love and Thunderball, was born 102 years ago today...
... Martin Landau is 89...
... James Tolkan was 86...
... John Mahoney is 77...
... Ivo Milazzo was 70...
... Tress MacNeille is 66...
... John Goodman is 65...
... Robert Rodriguez, who directed the Sin City movies, is 49...
... Christopher Mintz-Plasse is 28...
... John David Wilson, who helped animate Peter Pan and Lady & The Tramp, died 4 years ago today...
... and Jim Bamber died three years ago.
Well, I'm done for today. I'll be back tomorrow, knock on wood, to give you all some more Silver Age silliness, as well as the usual stuff.

I wonder if DC has considered reviving Adventure comics with the original numbering. They could pick up at #530 and later do some promo around the issue numbers 550 and 600.

Well, that just raises the question of who the hell do you make the comic about - Jon already has his own ongoing, Conner is in comic book limbo... who else is there, the Legion of Super-Heroes? In that case, why not just make LoSH v8?

The toys are actually a pretty good if incredibly goofy metaphor for Superman himself. They're not designed to be dangerous, but they're stuck in a world that's weak enough for them to potentially be a danger. And so he has to keep the toys in the toybox on the moon like Superman keeps Superman inside Clark Kent. And they end up doing more good for Earth than harm just like Superman.So when will Clark share his toys with Jon on the moon?

The absolute madman approach would be to make it an anthology series about the expanded Superman universe sort of like Archie's Sonic Universe.
You get a story about Clark taking Jon to meet the New Gods in Supertown, a story about Lori Lemuris meeting Aquaman, a story about Lois Lane interviewing Bruce Wayne, etc.

That is an excellent cover.

Swan's covers were astoundingly good.

why does baby Kal have blonde hair
>>93346085
Bodies are often born with fairer hair that darkens over time. It happens with people and with animals.

Would you guys like to a see a return of an action comics formatted comic? Like with multiple stories featuring different characters?

I'd kind of like a story like this, but as the aftermath of CoIE.
