  • 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 :)

  • 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???

Looking for Archie Comic from 1987 - Need help with search
« on: February 23, 2011, 11:55:14 PM »
Hi there,

I sent in a story to Archie (not sure title or issue - I know! I know!) in 1987 and it was published (and I think I won $7!). I have no idea how one would figure out which issue this was.

It was one of those reader write-ins. I wrote a story at the age of 8 years old about living on a houseboat and that I lived on the boat with a gaggle of kittens. I remember that Archie drew a picture of the boat with little portholes with a kitten head in each.

I would love to get my hands on this. Any idea how one would research this?

Thanks! M

Do you have any idea of at least the title that it appeared in? Going through all the issues that were published in 1987, assuming we could locate them, would take a long time.

Yeah unfortunately I have no idea which title - so this may be an impossible endeavor. I wish there was some way to search online (like searching my name for example). Might be a lost cause!

If you remember what the cover looks like, you can check the GCBD. I've tracked down digests from the 80s that way.

Unfortunately I have no memory for what the cover even looked like - guess this isn't gonna happen easily. . .

Did you buy the comic when it was published?  If you ever owned it, you could probably at least start by distinguishing between covers and titles that look familiar and those that don't.

Good luck!  :)

Tried looking thru my Archie series books from this year and got no results. Are you sure it was 1987? I'm not really sure what other books besides Archie did the "archie club news" section
