First off, thank you, [info]eeeper!

Did Jack Kirby work on Thor before the Marvel Age Of Comics even existed? You bet he did!



Vintage Kirby stuff from a 1957 issue of "Tales of The Unexpected" that proves he knew when to hold 'em and when to fold 'em! Also Stan Lee talks like a rapper. It's all in this week's STUPID COMICS!!

Don't have any big plans for the weekend. Anime North is holding court in a suite down at the Polaris convention so we might drop in there Saturday evening to socialize for a bit and wander around the convention until we get thrown out. I think this is race week so there might be a bit of traffic in our neighborhood to look out for. As near as I can tell there aren't any crazy movies being shown or giant yard sales to get to, and I don't think it's ever going to get warm enough to go swimming anywhere up here. It's been a pretty cool and wet summer so far.


Also, and I want to point out here, that Thor accuses Weasley guy of using his hammer for evil purposes. But the fact is that Weasely guy actually DID make it rain. It's not like he promised rain and didn't deliver. Sure, he THOUGHT about robbing the bank... but he didn't actually DO it. How evil is that, honestly? Not that evil.

Course if I was the weasley guy and had used Thor's hammer to bring rain to drought-ridden communities, it would've been wise not to charge those people to the gills for my reputable services if I knew someday I'd have to come up against a god like Thor and then knew when to quit and be thankful for not having made a cent in the process (or a little to at least support my food/lodging).

Great as usual Dave!
