	Yeah, the Flash bit was great.  I was commenting to my friend when
we started watching it that I'd bet there will be a lot of guest appearances
by the actors from Flash.  And what do you know, John Wesley Shipp is in the
next episode!

	I hope so too.  By the way, did you notice who got credit for
the design of the plane?  It's Mike Kaluta.

	Roy Thomas has a curse upon him that will not allow him to 
write a JSA book.  When all-star was revived in the 70's, he was at
Marvel.  When he was at DC, the company would not accept the idea
of a present-day JSA book and evetually decides to write the characters
out of active use.  Now he is back at Marvel again and DC
decides to revive the JSA.

	I dont think Roy Thomas has been the same as a writer since the whole 
"Crisis"/death of Earth 2/"last days of the JSA".  Something just went
out of the work.

Well, what's the latest issue you have?  Mine is #16, and it just came
out a few months ago.  Harv tends to publish only once a year or so,
so we'll probably be waiting a while for the next issue.

He used to do that.  I dunno.  Call him up and ask.  Alternatively,
call up Bud Plant's mail order line (I believe they're in Sacramento,
CA).  You might also want to pick up THE NEW AMERICAN SPLENDOR
ANTHOLOGY, published recently by Four Walls Eight Windows.

Sad to say I haven't been keeping up with the comic biz like I used to.
Can someone give me a quick run down of what Jim Shooter has been doing?
Last time I paid attention, he was ed-in-chief at Marvel.  Now I see
his name plastered all over some re-hashed 60's comics at Western Publishing
(Solar Man of the Atom, Magnus Robot Fighter, etc).  If some budding biographer
would care to send/post a summary of Jim Boy's adventures, I'd be mightily

It's a substance.  Blowing up Krypton makes it, yes, but that's not the only

One of the issues had a classic caption on the cover.  It had a picture of

Doctor Fate is definitely an issue which NEEDS to be handled in depth in
the future, since Kent Nelson was a JSAer for over a decade after losing
the original Fate helmet in the early 1940s, and since Green Lantern and
Nabu/Fate were, well, maybe not "friends", but there was a bond between
them.

Power Girl's presence in the JSA is nebulous at this time, since the Golden
Age Superman no longer exists.

The Star Spangled Kid is, as I recall, dead.

Jade and her brother Obsidian were mentioned in passing.

True.

The handling of the JSA's memories has been pretty rotten, all in all.

By the way, a potential spoiler for upciming issues:

Rumor has it that the Ultra-Humanite will be appearing in the near future.
I would presume that the mastermind behind the monster in this issue was him
(recovering from another transplant).

Marvel puts out lots of "markers" that point to real current events to indicate
that their chronology is taking place close to the present.  However I don't
think they actually put much emphasis on the continuity of these things.  If
it suits them to forget certain "marker" details in their stories sometime in
the future, they will do so.

An example is the aforementioned Statue of Liberty in scaffolds, which I am
sure has appeared many times.  Some years back when the Serpent Society put 
drugs into the water supply of Washington, D.C. which turned everyone into
reptilian creatures, it was all too easy to recognize that the president was
obviously Ronald Reagan.  If in twenty years from now, a Captain America story
refers back to this incident but refers not to an explicit president at all,
I won't be too surprised.

Other good examples can be found in the Spider-Man and Fantastic Four stories
in the first few years of Marvel's existence.  References are constantly made
to the Ed Sullivan Show, and to fashion styles that are now thirty years out
of date.  (*Every* male adult in those early stories wore hats.)  If we were
to treat as true every detail presented in these stories, we would have to
either believe that all the characters lived in a time warp or that all the
original Marvel heroes must be in their forties and fifties.

It is best than to ignore most of the references to specific periods in time
unless it is essential to the story or to the character's origins, which I
think Marvel is really doing.

That was a horrid retcon, and any self-respecting fan would ignore it
and tell the GL people such.

B:  We have seen on numerous occasions that the will of the ring-bearer has an
effect on its strength.  My favorite instance of this is where a weak-willed

I doubt it.  Hellblazer and Sandman are both "mature titles".  Just
as Green Arrow, Sandman, etc. were not included in Armageddon 2001
or Eclipso -- the younger audience would not be encouraged to pick
up titles they otherwise wouldn't/couldn't buy.

Green Arrow WAS included in the Eclipso crossover however.

Remember when she fought Dracula?  The cross had no influence, and
Drac gave with the "the holder must believe!!!", and then burnt himself
on Kitty's Star of David.

oh yeah - Nightcrawler zapped him with a cross, and Wolverine made a cross
and got himself kicked across the room.  Guess we can tell which is a
christian and which isn't...

Oh yeah(2).  Thor's hammer when wielded by Thor(original) caused vampires
to fizzle on contact (token of a religion held by a believer!!!)
