Every time I see something I loved as a child, especially movies I haven't watched SINCE I was a child, I realize how utterly stupid I was. Off the top of my head, I used to think the popcorn bags in the paper meant you'd GET that many popcorn bags with the movie. I don't know why they didn't use stars. Man I was dumb. Still am.

I like that Profile found a vest that matches his hair. That's quite a find.

Don't worry, if Profile is as big of a bottom as he seems the exchange with Batman probably gave him a huge hardon (as symbolized by his extended pinky).

Have you heard of Gershon Legman? He wrote some great stuff on homosexuality in comics in the 40s. And by great, I mean completely insane...

I followed the link at the end and this sentence stood out:
"Roughage such as most bananas, cholesterol food such as squids, heavy mineral food like spinach and nescaffe, high protein food like cabbage, been sprouts, soya products and milk are bad for colon."

"heavy mineral food like spinach and nescaffe"? WTF?

I thought it was a mannish woman, or a tranny. Reeeally hard to figure out. Just another reason for comic book geeks (especially the artists) to actually socialize with women.

That's *back-in-the-day* police SOP: threaten the queer with jail-rape to make him squeal. Who knew Batman was only there for the hets?

I saw Dog Day Afternoon when I was just a little muppet, and I had no idea that prison rape was a major subtext of the film. I was such a stupid, stupid little muppet!
