    Along with the “One Punch”, I loved the follow up in JLA 0 (I think that’s where it was), where we have Batman commenting on punching out Guy. That was one of the few retcons I really appreciated, with Diana getting a pic on her Cellphone from Dinah and Batman having fun reinacting the move on Supes.

    I love these “What I love about comics” sections. Keep it up! Instead of your Bio, it should just direct you to these posts. Everything you want to know about Funnybookbabylon is right here :-).

    (just an aside, your podcast keeps on downloading to my computer, even though I’ve downloaded and “unchecked” it before. I’m not sure why it is doing that, but I wanted to give you the head’s up.)

    That particular “old Marvel comic” at #6 also has the worst drawn Spider-Man I’ve seen in a comic to this day. He’s like a black and red potato with tiny, tiny white eyes placed unevenly on his forehead.
