I've always looked at the cover of Batman #4 and thought that was a spotlight of sorts. If the background had been some shade of blue/grey/black I'd have thought it was the moon. The Moon was always drawn as an unrealistic, almost perfect, white (or yellow) circle.
I love that Adventure #428 cover. Such a great non-Batman Batman cover 
#428 is a very cool cover. In fact I think that series has a great run of covers for a few years until the Aquaman "rides a dolphin" cover. Not meant as a knock on Jim Aparo, but the "vibe" of those covers changed for me. I never cared for the Aquaman logo(s) for that matter. |

There's a big difference between the Spectre and Aquaman covers. |

As a big Jim Aparo fan, I too lament the usage of such a great artist on such a lame character  |

Midge looks like she does Meth. Midge is probably wacked on whatever P.E.D.'s she ganks from Moose's gym bag. Betty knows how to keep it cool, though.  |

22 July 2019 National Pi Approximation Day Walt Disney's Comics & Stories #314 OK. I know it's not really "Pi", but it's issue #314 and there's a cake on the cover. I think a cake is approximately pie. Sort of in the same dessert family. |

DCM has titles like Pep, Wilbur, Katy Keene, etc., but not the Archie flagship title. I haven't read much from the "hero" genre from the Golden Age outside of Superman and some of the DC reprint collections, but I like what I've seen from the early MLJ comics. I'm not familiar with Sham Comics. I'd consider ordering Sham 1 & 2 although I cringe at paying $13.99 for just two books. The Ogre books look kind of cool, but 2 of the 3 are sold out. Anything you can recommend? |
