Lost Crossovers: INFERIOR FIVE #10

This issue of INFERIOR FIVE doesn't contain a literal crossover at all. It was a parody comic in the same sort of vein as Marvel's NOT BRAND ECHH, albeit with a series of continuing characters. But the depictions of the Marvel characters being parodied in this one are so thin that I think an argument … Continue reading Lost Crossovers: INFERIOR FIVE #10

BHOC: ACTION COMICS #469

Now that is a cover. You really have to wonder what the folks in charge of some of the comic books of this era were thinking when they commissioned such a piece.

The … Continue reading BHOC: FLASH #236

BHOC: FLASH #235

I must admit that I was disappointed when this next issue of FLASH showed up, folded in half, in my mailbox. And that’s because the previous issue indicated that it was going to be a Giant-sized issue, a format that I loved. Alas, at some point in the intervening sixty days, a change was made, … Continue reading BHOC: FLASH #235

BHOC: FLASH #228

Now here’s a favorite comic of mine, and the one that was responsible both for making me realize that it was an actual job that real human beings had to make the comics that I was reading and me determining that this was what I wanted to do. From this point on, I began making … Continue reading BHOC: FLASH #228
