Wow, so they were actually allowed to say much less make a comic out of the fact that Lois was Supermans girlfriend?

Obviously the comics code needed to be restricted still a bit then.

Why does make me think of masturbation? (Don''t answer and don''t comment)

Edit: Forgot this one.

At least it explains the gay spiderman dance thing.

Well, for me it''s because I masturbate faster then a speeding bullet. With the ladies, I''m nice and slooooooow.

I love those old covers. Often times it had nothing to do with the story inside, either.

This was also a classic type of cover from the good old days. Good guys attacking other good guys!

Anyone else think it''s funny that Lois'' supposed to be his girlfriend, but she still calls him Superman? What, he doesn''t have a name?

Anyone see the tribute DC did to Julis Schwartz, who died recently?

Schwartz was one of the big names back in the day, and was REALLY well know for the cover-driven comic. They took 8 titles (Batman, Mystery in Space, Green Lantern, Hawkman, Superman, The Flash, and The Atom) had one person draw a cover, and then had two separate stories from two separate teams inside. Here''s some more info: Cover-Driven Comics

They just came out about 3 months ago, so you should be able to still find them if you''re interested. I know that at my comic book store, they''re still on the ""OOH, Look at ME"" shelf. Of course, the owner''s in LOVE with DC, so that may have something to do with it.

I think a lot of guys would prefer that.

Hahaha... I know *I* would think it was AWESOME if my girlfriend''s nickname for me was Superman.

I had no idea what you were talking about, but then I realized - there''s always reason to Edwin''s madness, and Google will know what it is!

Sure enough, it did.

Deadpool and Martian Manhunter were the most underrated comics of the 90''s. I miss Deadpool, thanks, Ed.

Well, I got that part... But, I mean.. why''s Batman attacking the unicorn? And then, after he wins, why is he all sad? I mean... where''s the motivation?!

He is batman. He doesn''t need motivation. I honestly thought he was doing something else, not being sad.

The pony was freaky. This, for pathetically sad reasons, made me snicker.
