Congrats Icctrombone. Beautiful cover.
There came a time when the Old Gods died! The Brave died with the Cunning! The Noble perished locked in battle with unleashed Evil! It was the last day for them! An ancient era was passing in fiery holocaust!
Congrats Icctrombone.

Congratulations icctrombone!
Thank you whiteshark for voting for John Buscema's masterful Silver Surfer cover.
I almost voted for the Silver Surfer cover too!
Congrats, icctrombone! And thanks to Kirby101 for voting for my Gene Colan cover with Iron Man and the Titanium Man. Wasn't that a song by Paul McCartney and Wings?, No? Well it should have been Iron Man and the Titanium Man.
"Magneto And Titanium Man"
Well I Was Talking Last Night
Magneto And Titanium Man . . .
We Were Talking About You, Babe,
Oo --- They Said ---
You Were Involved In A Robbery
That Was Due To Happen
At A Quarter To Three
In The Main Street.
I Didn't Believe Them
Magneto And Titanium Man . . .
But When The Crimson Dynamo
Finally Assured Me, Well, I Knew
You Were Involved In A Robbery
That Was Due To Happen
At A Quarter To Three
In The Main Street.
So We Went Out
Magneto And Titanium Man . . .
And The Crimson Dynamo
Came Along For The Ride
We Went To Town With The Library
And We Swung All Over That
Long Tall Bank In The Main Street
Well There She Were And To My Despair
She's A Five-Star Criminal
Breaking The Code
Magneto Said "Now The Time Come
To Gather Our Forces And Run!!!"
Oh No . . . . . .
This Can't Be So . . . . . .
And Then It Occurred To Me!
You Couldn't Be Bad
Magneto Was Mad!
Titanium Too!
And The Crimson Dynamo
Just Couldn't Cut It No More
You Were The Law . . . . . .
Congratulations to icctrombone for a cover which helped kick Animal Man into a more "mature" mode. The jokes abut male and female Thanagarians have certainly been around since probably the Golden Age, but this cover recognized them. And yes, the story turns out to be far more to Morrison's run tha n just a giggly (jiggly? yes, I'm probably going tpo sexist hell) joke costume.
And what has the captain learned this week? He has a reaffirmation the the idea of flight is seminal to comic book superheros. It's special in the way that we can't do it even a little bit. We have some strength, some sense abilities, we have some detective abilities and most super-powers are exaggerations of our own natural abilities. Flight is different, flight is magical. This was a theme which reminded all of us of that magic. Thank you.
When I was younger I used to have dreams that I was flying. I loved those dreams.
