I KNEW that Superman was a Dick!

This is just the proof we need. It's also a key piece of evidence in my case the DC comics suck. Superman in his lameness and unbridled dick-dickery... I lost my thought. he sucks. and so does the boat he came to the crappy planet on. suck sucks sucky bites.

It seems that, for no good reason, I got my eye on comics, my brain has seized upon it and can think of nothing else.

Today's Song of the Day is "Fire and Rain" by James Taylor off his 1970 album "Sweet Baby James".

Crazy Fact: This is about the suicide of a fellow inmate of Taylor's at a mental institution.

I thought it was a song about how Taylor's wife died in a plane crash after their friends paid for a ticket for her to fly over and surprise him...

I'm gonna look it up. Wiki!

Okay FINE, you're right, you're right. But the lie is more tragically romantic than the truth. Crazy fact number 2!

DC comics suck !

And Marvel is soooo much better. Excuse me if my superheros aren't all afflicted with some tragic genetic mutation or weren't caught in some freak lab accident . . . or space station accident . . . or a multitude of other accidents involving gamma rays, x-rays and radioactive spiders. I'm not sure why these characters need to get ass fucked by life before they can be a hero.

Two simple comic book rules: 1. If you own a cape and some tights, you are a superhero. That's it. Barman is Batman for no other reason than he likes to dress up like a bat. 2. If something is so complicated that it can't be explained by,"Its from outer space!" then you are wasting my time.

I always wanted to create the opposite of comics called "tragic books" or something like that about tragic heroes. My image is not Cobain but actually homeless people who seem to wander the streets and don't draw attention to themselves in much the same way super heroes are portrayed in comics.

Oh sure, someone points to a superhero pulling some shit--flying, throwing a train engine, etc.--but if they are just walking on the street it is as though the ordinary people of the city don't notice them.

no one asks for their autographs in comic books either.

imagine asking a homeless dude for his autograph. I bet if I went to different cities and did that, I could sell the collection on ebay. then watch me get a coffee table book contract out of it.

hey, if madonna can get a book published with pictures of a guy putting his tongue up her you-know-what, there really is no limit to coffee table books.

so yeah. comic books. and let's not forget coffee table books. and Mad magazine. long live Sergio Leones!
