    I think the rule is more towards bitching that "this isn't part of the theme". Fannish gushing and abject adoration is allowed. As to your opinion, I agree.

    We are not supposed to say NEGATIVE things. Compliment away.

    Uh, isn't this a Cover Contest as opposed to a video appreciation thread?

    Maybe we should focus on covers first and save videos until after the voting is done?

    Tangential discussions are our weakness.

    This is a splash page, NOT A COVER. But it was about the coolest car I ever saw in a comic. Another Steranko masterpiece doing invisibility better than anyone.

    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!

    ^ Don't know about Cap in a Ferrari, seems more Tony Stark

    Can we put Cap in Ford GT40 the car that finally beat Ferrari at Lemans 1966!


    Mego didn't quite do it justice.

    Although I love the "Flip-Out deflector Shield!"

    And that's The "Amiricar" one word. Don't anyone forget it!

    "I should describe my known nature as tripartite, my interests consisting of three parallel and disassociated groups; a) love of the strange and the fantastic, b) love of abstract truth and scientific logic, c) love of the ancient and the permanent. Sundry combinations of these strains will probably account for my...odd tastes, and eccentricities."

    There was recently another thread about KITT. Inspired me to look for this cover.

    I think restorative nostalgia is the number one issue with comic book fans.
    A fine distinction between two types of Nostalgia:

    Reflective Nostalgia allows us to savor our memories but accepts that they are in the past
    Restorative Nostalgia pushes back against the here and now, keeping us stuck trying to relive our glory days.

    Hey Speed Buggy did have his own comic, which could still show. As did Wacky Races, which you posted, and Hot Wheels and Wheelie and the Chopper Bunch, which all had cartoons, which then inspired the whole tangental cartoon theme.

    Or it's just that! LOL!

    Anyone familiar with this bizarre one...


    Which had a Bearcat car and was a bizarre reworking of an even more obscure live action show - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aX_bDkaNE0o

    I'm well aware they were cartoons on TV that had comic books, as well as a few others.
    But I thought it was getting a bit ridiculous when we were having more videos posted here than we were getting comic book covers.

    That's why I was HOPING we could save further video postings until after we finished voting, especially since people might miss a cover entry sandwiched between three or four posts of just videos before and after the lone cover entry.

    Kai "the spy". What can I say, one of the most iconic comic book covers of all time.
    «Speaking generally, it is because of the desire of the tragic poets for the marvellous that so varied and inconsistent an account of Medea has been given out» (Diodorus Siculus, The Library of History [4.56.1])
