  • Biollante: probalby, but 59 percent is considered a "blow out" in political terms, some people are on shaky ground right now, there was evne a conservative pollset that worked for Bush warning people that if Republicans are against things like gay marriage in the near future, they would endure catastrophic losses, I don't know if it's this political cycle, but the paradigm shift already happened a while ago

  • Steveinthecity: I wonder why it's always readers that catch mistakes with art, powers, plots, continuity, uniforms, etc. and not the creators and editors?  I hope they're not secretly laughing at us. ;)

  • Steveinthecity: When Thor pulls the hammer back to throw, his momentum stops. He has always been able to float or hover once airborne, and he'll remain until the hammer comes back to him.  I guess the winds keep him aloft.

  • Biollante: ok so shouldn't Joe Quesada know that? lol  It made him look a bit stupid imo.
    May 21, 2012, 07:57:37 AM
  • Jabroniville: Yeah, that's odd- Thor usually has the Hammer out in front. Though I don't think it's ever explained how he can throw it while in mid-flight and not just plummet like a goof. I wish artists would stop having him do things like that :)
    May 21, 2012, 07:23:13 AM
  • Steveinthecity: @Biolante:  Thor uses the hammer to fly. He can throw his hammer during flight and float in one spot until the hammer returns to him. Don't know what Joe Q. was thinking there. I've never seen Thor fly on his own.

  • Biollante: Joe Quesada was drawing Thor on some Disney promo, and he drew him flying with his hammer on his side, now I'm not a Thor junkie, but isn't that actualy inaccurate, doesn't he fly by being dragged by his hammer???

CLASSIC TITLE #2 - Jughead Jones Digest Magazine
« on: September 08, 2007, 10:57:45 PM »
THE STATS:

Title:  Jughead Jones Digest Magazine
Total Issues Published:  100
First Issue:  June 1977
Final Issue:  May 1996
Main artists:  Dan DeCarlo, Stan Goldberg, Samm Schwartz, etc.

Jughead Jones Digests I own:

1-4, 6, 9-16, 19, 21-26, 28-100

MEMORABLE ISSUES:

#44 - (okay, not memorable really, except that this was my second ever book to add to my collection!)   :2funny:

#81 - the reprint of the Joani/Jughead/Debbie stories begin

#100 - Jughead's identical lookalike cousin Nathan Jones (which happens to also be a song by Bananarama) comes to town, and romances Betty, Veronica and even Cheryl Blossom in this title's conclusion.

I miss this title, and don't know why they gave it the axe after 100 issues...but I suppose Jughead and Friends is the next best step.

Anyone else have any other memorable experiences with Jughead Jones Digest?

It was likely so they could legitimately put non-Jughead stories in the digests.

Heck, I remember when almost half of the stories in Betty and Veronica Digest had neither Betty nor Veronica in them.




Betty Cooper + Cheryl Blossom. It's inevitable.

Well, IMJ, both #1 and #100 came out a long time ago (30 years in the case of #1). 

I suppose you could look on sites like eBay to find them, as they do offer a lot of older books there...but be prepared to pay a lot of money for them.

Just because the Jughead Jones #1 cover price says 75 cents on it doesn't mean you can get it for that price today!!!

I loved JUGHEAD JONES DIGEST. This was one of the regular digests I collected as a kid. If I'm remembering right, I believe there was an issue with a brilliant yellow cover that reprinted the entire classic story from JUGHEAD'S FANTASY where Jughead becomes the new Elvis. It was the first time I was ever introduced to that story and I loved it.

I've purchased several old Jughead Jones digests from ebay. I love them and would like to get more. I started getting digests from ebay a couple of years ago, maybe.  Anyway, it used to be pretty easy to win the auction, but now there are more bidders for the old digests and they keep driving the prices up!  :(

Part of it is that people have discovered the value of the older comics, so some folks will snatch them up just to turn around and sell them again for more than what they paid. There is also software that apparently automatically bids for you to keep people from outbidding you at the last second, which is unfair to those of us who actually want to play nice.
