…The Golden Age of Comic Books:

From 1950’s completely subtext-free “Mysterious Case of Mystery Mountain,” starring Babe, the Amazon of the Ozarks. Seriously: Boody Rogers is awesome.

My god, comics really do corrupt the young.

Chris – having swiped a number of images/ideas from the ISB, I’ve tried to make amends by giving you a Splash award – http://roberthanks.typepad.com/zoo_in_the_head/2009/04/covered-in-glory.html. Take advantage or not, as you wish.

I interviewed Amanda Conner at the Emerald City comicon this weekend for a podcast and when asked what the weirdest commission she ever got was she told me “Princess Diana as a Centaur”.
