Anyone recognize this guy? I'm watching the 2004 Justice League Unlimited and this was one of the members helping to fight Android in The Return imgur.com/a/vkkx6I'm pretty sure that is STRIPE from the Stars and STRIPE series around 2000.

Conway writes Spider-Man again...well that should put the cat amongst the pigeons in fan circles.
Still no FF. No more Astonishing Ant-Man?
I might be interested in Prowler.
On the whole, though, ... yawn.

Darkseid. Thanos. Apocalypse.
Too damn powerful and too damn predictable.
Anytime they show up in a title I usually drop said title.

I'll always want to say Solarman.
But it still feels a bit cruel.

What is the ratio of Nazi super villains to German superheroes?
500 to 1? 1,000 to 1?

And as I recall, that Hex story retconned itself by issue #2 or three! The girl from the future who had been revealed to be a robot was reintroduced as a real girl! But it's "Gut Searing"! Like a case of the bends or appendicitis.

Don't feel bad, Soupy Sales was never funny. De gustibus, I guess. He was a subversive force on kids' TV long before there was such a thing. His program was post-modern, deconstructionist and meta- before anyone had even thought of those concepts. And, oh, also funny. I'd put Soupy's style somewhere between Ernie Kovacs and Kukla, Fran and Ollie. But nowhere near as groundbreaking or funny.

Soupy Sales was an American television show in the 60s adn the Mouse was a musical number/dance the show was known for seen here...after the Parliament joke just for you tingramretro... -M Humour is sometimes a curiously culturally specific thing, which clearly doesn't always travel well. That may be one of the unfunniest things I've ever seen. And I didn't understand the punchline of the chicken joke. Try to think of the most bizarre member of the Carry On films. Then give that person a 30 minute lunchtime children's show in NYC...with 10 minutes of material. A lot more miss than hit but the adults who went home for lunch got hooked. Don't ask me why.
