The Strangest
Adventures has covered some well known and lesser-known corners of the world of
comic books. This seems a good time to update some of that information. We have
previously mentioned Superwoman. Here’s her entry in Who’s Who, a series of DC
comics listing Heroes, Villains, and more which they began publishing in 1985. Highly
recommended.
We did a 3
part entry on the 75th Anniversary of Batman. This is one of the
less savory events of Batman’s history, the time he killed Robin.
We’ve
mentioned Star Trek before. Here’s a cover from the Gold Key run of that title,
from the time the USS Enterprise went to Pluto.
We covered the
Silver Age Doctor Mid-Nite before and how she became reduced in age to become a
teen and went to the 30th Century (don’t ask) where she joined, for
a time, The Legion of Night Heroes. That didn’t last.
The X-Men
didn’t always have the most dignified of villains, case in point, Anus the
Untouchable! The less said about him the better. He stinks! A lot has been made lately about Wolverine’s death, but I remember the first time they killed Wolverine off.
The rest of
the story? To Be Continued.
