  • 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: Would the survey results differ if "civil union" was used in place of "marriage"?

  • PTF: Thor's hammer has fan club? :)

  • Banshee: Because we fans take our favorite stuff seriously, that is why.

  • 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.

  • 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???

That " ARCHIE #190 " cover...........
« on: June 24, 2009, 08:22:22 PM »
...( which I think I had in the past ) had a headline saying " Experts Predict Humphrey Victory " .
  The word " Nixon " , but nothing else , was visible elsewhere...
  Hubert Humphrey , in fact...Of course , he DID win the 1968 election , with Richard Nixon going on to an early career in TV infomercials , investing in Ronco early ( However , he withdrew from the commercials after Ron Popeel would not change the company's name to RoNnix , ater which " Tricky Dick " had a venture with Phil Spector which , well...Then , after Muskie/Lindsay's 1976 victory , a Republican got in in 1984 when...
  But , anyway...The cover date of April 1969 would appear to indicate that it WAS on the newsstand after the popular votes in the 1968 US election !!!!!!!!!!!
  However , as those of us who remember pre-comics shop-era comics could back up , maybe still in 1969 ( Now I am thinking of an Iggy Stooge/Archie team-up . )...
  I was a little suprised to see " Hanoi " in one of the headlines , that might be seen as a " controversial " phrase in the U.S. in 1968 , more so that just " Student Revolt " , which could be seen as just describing something that was mhappening a lot in 1968...
  " Czehoslovakia " appears , well , the 1968 revolt by the Chechoslovokians against the Russians was fairly generally approved of !!!!!!!
