  • 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: 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???

[WANTED] Archie Comics titles from 1980
« on: November 03, 2011, 11:33:17 AM »
I'm working on a project to have all the Archie Comics titles published in the year 1980 bound into hardcover volumes.

I just started collecting the books, so I still need a whole bunch of them. As far as condition goes, I'm looking for books in in shape VF or better. A little chipping on the outside edges is ok since they'll get trimmed in the binding process.

Oh, and if you're interested in the notion of having comics bound into books, Google Herring & Robinson Bookbinders (among others).

Just wondering, why 1980?

Why not?

Seriously, I think that's the year that I stopped reading Archie when I was a kid and moved exclusively over to superhero stuff. Starting there and working backwards, and maybe forwards as well with other projects like these.

1980! What a year it is: the election of Ronald Reagan, the Iran Hostage crisis, the explosive Mt. St. Helens eruption (BOOM!), John Lennon's assassination, Pres. Carter announced the US boycott of the 1980 summer olympics in Moscow, and the US men's ice hockey team scores gold in the winter olympics in Lake Placid, New York. And to say a least I was born that year.

DavidMN, not a bad idea you have to start a 80s Archies' comic collection, one year down and 9 to go.  :)  The resurgent popularity of the Archies is responsible for DIC's saturday morning cartoon "the New Archies" in the late end of the decade.

Personally, I have all the Calvin and Hobbes comics ever in print...starting with the first of 12 books titled "Calvin and Hobbes" from the very first (B&W) in Nov. 1985 to "It's a Wonderful Trip." featured the final comic on Sunday Dec. 31, 1995.

Just for the heck of it...

Here is an extremely rough cover design I did for the proposed first volume.

1980 was the year before I was born...

Though because of that, I've been looking for all Archie comics with a publication date of May 1981.  I know technically they all were released in March, but still...
