Hey, thanks for stopping by to hang out. You're in the right spot for discussions about my favorite pop culture topics. Subjects may include vinyl, '70s sitcoms, cosmic super hero adventures, arena rock, conspiracy theories, thrift stores, '80s horror flicks, VHS culture, all things retro, lovely ladies, and the latest happenings in my world. So come on down the steps (watch your head), pass through the rec room, and pull up a bean bag...you're hanging in my "bedroom in the basement!" EST. 1979

Looks like John Carter has some competition
DC published a John Carter tribute in this issue of Superman, which came out during that weird limbo period of time between the end of "Crisis" (issue #12 was cover dated March 1986) and the beginning of John Byrne's newly rebooted adventures in "Man of Steel."
Those of you with knowledge of comic history will know what I'm talking about...the next 6 issues of Superman (under the editorial hand of the legendary Julius Schwartz) basically had a "let's try whatever" approach as they had nothing to lose, knowing that a new direction would be starting soon. I may explore this topic further in an upcoming post. Stay tuned!
