I know some likely suspects will show here so I will go with a slightly less likely one

To me, I think sports like that are a good challenge/opportunity for a comic artist to really let loose and see what they can do to keep the reader interest.
Now, that is good. Really good stuff by the look of it. I take back what I said. It is but I would not want to read an entire comic detailing a snooker game. Would rather play it! Or if I was a die hard fan, watch it live.

I read comics for escapism and fun. The fact that they made movies about the comics is an added bonus and expansion of the medium that I like
I watch sports (mainly hockey) for the competitive aspect and highs and lows of winning and losing with my favourite team. I cannot in my wildest dreams imagine getting any of that from a comic that I would care about. Would it be retelling hockey history, if that is the sport I pick? For that, I would honestly rather read an autobiography or article. Or watch some old footage. I just cannot imagine taking a sport I love and making it the focus of the comic. And in terms of making it fantastical (a boy who could skate and shoot faster than anyone else), well that exists already and tends to happen every few decades...so again, not seeing how it would ever work to where I would be interested.

Is there a phone booth on earth somewhere? I think we are just really zoomed out too far to see it is all...

I need to go with what is more iconic. Both great costume debuts, both books I need in the PC but farrar would be the one I want more. The yellow costume is cool but that deep red and black is unbeatable.

I feel like realistically, in the world today, a secret identity would be IMPOSSIBLE to keep. Unless you were someone very obscure with no connections, the world would find out about you very quickly. I have often thought (and surely it has been done, I just have not read it) what would happen if someone wrote such a story. A story right now, with someone somehow obtaining powers (like flight and super strength). How would the world legitimately react? What would actually happen? And would said person even think to try and "fight crime" or would they just be freaked out and trying to get medical help to correct the newfound powers? Something I would read for sure if it has been already been done. Wait! It isn't the plot of Miracleman??? Maybe? I mean like now though not the 80's/90's. And I often wonder if much of the world would even care today. Like imagine a man was found in Brazil who could fly and lift 10x his weight. Would that even move the needle in terms of interest in the gernal population? Or would it be like "wow cool", then scroll on to the next thing?

If you were to make a list of the top 50 superheroes, is there any within such a list that they have not ever tried to make some female variation of?

So simple yet a great cover. Colleting Rhino appearances from the 60's through the mid 80's is a fun endeavour should anyone ever do so...not a ton of books that he was in, even fewer covers and is there a better C lister? I will say no!
