  • 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???

The Bad Old Days
Video Tape Trauma
Gimmick Kick
Don't Quote Me
Weigh Out Scene
10 Feet Tall
Switch
A Fool For Cool
Never Never Land
Fashion Is Fun
Young At Heart
Fighting Females

Thanks in advance.

Any hint of what any of these stories might be about?  Some of them sound familiar, but I know that certain titles have been recycled twice or more...

I'll try posting some splash pages and see if folks can get the stories sourced.

OK, I've posted four splash pages from stories I'm needing sourced.  Let's see if I can get some to appear here.

I've noticed that the Best of the 60's lists the source stores - cool.  An introduction, a list of sources, a little analysis etc..... wrap that sucker in a hard-cover, make it chronological and we've got some Archive action happening!

I'm definitely curious as to where that "Riverdale 2001" story came from. That book is the only place I've ever seen that.

I've never seen that Riverdale 2001 but it seems like Archie 3000 was based off of that

Hey, in a couple of the book released after 2000, it was actually changed to Riverdale: 3001!

Because, really...the artists rendering of 2001 was just so darn accurate.  ;)

I guess in a recent digest (I think it was actually the new issue of Archie), the whole Riverdale:2001 series was changed to "Archie's Future Fun".

Oddly enough, the reprints of Archie 3000! are largely unchanged.  Though I won't be alive in 3000 (unless medical science really gets going and we live to be 1000), it'd be interesting to see what happens when the year 3000 gets here...would the stories still stay the same, or be updated to Archie 4000! ;)
