Whenever you have a monkey riding a horse, I'm in. Tom74152 private msg quote post Address this user
This is one of my all time favorites. I don’t think this would qualify. It’s pulp not a comic.

Have I told you about the time I dropped off 3,000 comics at SDCC? Scifinator private msg quote post Address this user
For further color on this weeks "Lost Universes" comics, I want to somewhat get away from the mainstream. I know most don't have the Lost Universes guide, but there is a Facebook Group that is dedicated to that genre. Here is the link: Comic Book Lost Universes Group.

Would like to see non-Marvel & DC, but won't disqualify legitimate Lost Universes. For some more nuance, if one is to use a Marvel or DC it should NOT be:

- A parallel universe of established characters
- A periodic feature rotating storylines/characters like Marvel Super Special or Epic Illustrated
- A title that was bought by Marvel, DC, etc and is or was still published after 2000 (unless, the continuity/universe was completely abandoned. So Malibu/Ultraverse Exiles would be a yes, but Marvel Exiles would be a no.

No doubt many of you have some Lost Universes in you collection, but if you need a good cover photo, MyComicShop.com has a database full of them for easy copy of scans to post.

There were a lot of great comics with fantastic stories and wonderful art that didn't have the DC and Marvel deep pockets and thus were eventually lost. Let's celebrate them.

It was a one trick pony show but always hilarious. GAC private msg quote post Address this user
I interpreted the intention of this weeks contest as a live action show that a comic was based on. Is this correct or are animated shows also acceptable? If so...it opens up the options some.

Agreed! I'm still hoping to see one I came across earlier today that I'll need to get a print of.

That cover usually doesn't get much love from the board during the weekly contests. Personally, I like it.

Masculinity takes a holiday. EbayMafia private msg quote post Address this user
Never thought about comparisons between Bullseye and Joker before. But this week's covers of a grinning Bullseye from the Miller era made me think that there are some comparisons to be made. What say you, @HAmistoso?

I had to change my entry. Issue 6 of "Joker: the Man Who Stopped Laughing" has a Joker cover that is better suited for the contest than my original entry. I thought about choosing it right off the bat, but there were plenty of Joker covers already so I didn't use it at first.

I have been looking through numerous boxes for a certain book, and came across this one. It’s not what I was looking for, but I think I should have used it this week.
