Sorry but Ditko's art didn't age gracefully.

Gawd, I love The War that Time Forgot. I've only read three or four of them but I think it may be the most comic-bookiest idea ever devised. You may be right, especially given the culture in which it was birthed, since every kid (male kid, anyway), of the early- to mid-baby boomer era was not just enamored with, but obsessed with, dinosaurs and army men. Ask any old bastard of a certain age and you'll see. |

I checked the older contest via the link Hoosier X thoughtfully provided--some really great, creative selections. But a couple of the older covers aren't displaying in my view or may have been removed--so if this JO gem was among those previous entries, please let me know and I'll choose another cover. Thanks!  |

I'd actually go with Turok, Son of Stone as the ultimate comic-bookiest idea ever devised-- Native America hero hunting dinosaurs with a bow and arrow in a land that time forgot? C'mon!-- but War that Time Forgot would definitely be top five. |

Past about 1970 or so, I have no use for the work of Steve Ditko. So nyah, Chris!   |

Wait - how did the Superman office get the "It's plane, it's a bird..." line wrong? Also, it's deeply transphobic to state that Jimmy is not a man just because he wears women's clothing all the time. |

Especially since wearing women's clothes is about the most normal thing that Jimmy does. I'm surprised they weren't commenting about how he's not a giant turtle, a human porcupine, or stretched out of shape, or.... |
