  • 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

  • PTF: It's a magic hammer. It doesn't have to make sense. :)

  • 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 :)

  • 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.

  • comicsrod: As You may know Tonight of some Sad News the Robin Gibb 1/3 members of the fame Disco Group The Bee Gees has Passed Away at the age of 62 our Hearts go out to the only Survivor Bee Gees member Barry Gibb & His Family and his Music and Hollywood Friends as we Remember the Music Superstar he will be miss very much   ROBIN GIBB 1949-2012

  • 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???

Looking for a Digest based on cover description
« on: March 09, 2011, 03:36:03 PM »
So, I'm looking for a digest from my childhood. I don't know what the series or title was, but I remember the cover image clearly. It was a hand-me-down, so it could have been from the late 70's to the late 80's.

It was most likely Dan Decarlo. Betty and Veronica were walking in the foreground, I think dressed in fall-type clothes. One of them might have been wearing leg warmers. In the background, Flutesnoot was directing a group of the boys to look at a tree, and talking about how great the limbs were. Dilton was the only one looking at the tree, everyone else was looking at the girls, and Archie was saying something to the effect of "We're looking, we're looking!"

Anyone know what I'm talking about?

Sounds a lot like Archie Annual Digest #42, from 1983.

Glad that you found the issue!  If you are looking for an issue and know the cover, GCD has many of the digest covers - http://www.comics.org/  Just plug in the series and look at the cover gallery.

I miss the extra effort they used to put into those digest covers (and regular issue covers). Even though they just took some images from a story and pasted it to the cover, it makes it more fun and memorable.
