  • 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: 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.

  • 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???

All,

I've been reading comics for years -- don't ask how many, son it's rude--  :), mostly superhero DC/Marvel stuff, having given up on Archie books in my "they're not cool enough" teen years. About 2 years ago, I discovered www.comics.org, a website dedicated to indexing every single comic book ever published worldwide. Now I'm an editor on the site and was fast running out of projects when I stumbled on a heinous wrong-- few of the Archie were scanned, fewer still were indexed. Inspired by Jerry Bails, the founder of comic fandom (1933-2006), I decided to dedicate my time on improving the Archies series on the site. A month has passed since that dedication. I now have over 225 Archies (with about 100 more on order) and well over 100 digests. I 've scanned all the covers I have and am in the process of indexing all of them and more. So I'm back and having great fun re-exploring these characters. I'm also keenly interested in proper creator credits. If anyone has information on uncredited Archie stories from any decade, please pass it on to me. I'd be very grateful.

Sincerely Gregg Whitmore
