Apparently both Captain Marvel, Jr. and Mille the Model agree that "the play's the thing..."   |

Familiar phrase, Shakespearean origin ( Twelfth Night), though it was Antonio, speaking, he thinks, of Sebastian, who says, "This youth that you see here I snatch'd one half out of the jaws of death." (A few of several...)    |

That is the question!   (And it appears that Popeye is either quoting Hamlet in a production of Julius Caesar, or they've made some really interesting costume choices for Hamlet.) |

a great shakespeare comic would have been/should have been if possible, Titus Andronicus illustrated by Wrightson, scrivened by Moore.
Sadly upon posting this, the horror opportunist 'Niles' will likely set up a 'stew from the posterior of a sewer-rat' version illustrated by a lacking-genetalia 1992-Vertigo wannabe for IDW.

And the quotations continue. "Ill met by moonlight, proud Titania" is Oberon's greeting to his wife Titania in A Midsummer Night's Dream.  |

This may have been mentioned, because it's not from an obscure series or anything like that, but I don't remember seeing it.
I've been going back and reading some of my favorite Avengers comics ever. And I came across a scene in The Avengers #18 where Pietro wants to go to the circus and Wanda wans to go to the theater. Eventually they go their separate ways, so Wanda goes by herself to see "Twelfth Night."
You don't have to go to Shakespeare alone, Wanda! I'll go with you! (Although I would have picked a different Shakespeare play. Something with witches, perhaps?)
During the play she muses about how much she's always longed to be on the stage and be an actress! That would have been an interesting avenue to explore instead of sending her off to recuperate her powers in Europe all the time and then marrying her off to the Vision.
