Great show as always, Gentlemen. Am I one of the few people who enjoyed the DC Sampler show?
ReplyDeleteA few comments:
The Untouchables fought Looker in the “single member back-up stories” in The Outsiders baxter series #2 and #3. While I have also read the DC Comics Presents story with Robin and the Elongated Man, I didn’t realize they were the same characters until I read the Who’s Who entry. Bizarre.
The Warlock of Ys was actually holding Zatanna, and not Carol Ferris, but I believe you knew that …
Weather Wizard: I recall reading in an interview with Danny Bilson and Paul DeMeo (in Starlog or Comics Scene, maybe Comic Interview) that they had an idea for a Weather Wizard episode for the 1990-91 THE FLASH programme, but it would have been too expensive. As I recall, he would have been responsible for the lightning striking Barry in the pilot (a failed attempt at a jailbreak or to destroy the police headquarters, I think). This may be why Rob believed Weather Wizard was on the show... ("That oughta do it.")
Also, as I mentioned on Twitter, Weather Wizard did not appear on Hawkman, but this Who's Who issue was released just before Tony Isabella had left the Hawkman series (a shame, because I thought the Shadow War concept was brilliant), so I wonder if Isabella had a storyline with Mardon in his "five year plan" for the Thanagarian War...
And I agree with Earth 2 Chris that the Graffiti Designs hardcover “extras” should also be featured in your upcoming "History of the DCU" episode – especially since the essay by Bob Kane is one of the few instances he acknowledged in print that Bill Finger deserves credit for co-creating Batman…
And “Abin Syrup” is a great sobriquet. If he is looking for a logo, he can crop this: https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3347/5732672122_49499f597f_n.jpg
Next episode is the Wonder Woman issue… I cannot wait. There is this string tied around my finger to remind me to do… something…
