  1. Egghead is a fictional character created for the 1960s Batman television series. Played by horror film mainstay Vincent Price, the character was identifiable by his pale bald head and white and yellow suit. He believes himself to be "the world's smartest criminal", and his crimes usually have an egg motif to them; he also includes egg-related puns in his speech ("egg-zactly", "egg-cellent", etc.). Additionally, he would use a wide assortment of egg-shaped weapons, such as laughing gas eggs and tear gas eggs (laid by chickens on a diet of onions).
  2. Robin was 36 Batman was 55 Cat woman (meriwether)was 48 Bat girl (Craig) was 46 Egghead (Price) was 71 Newkirk (Richard Dawson) was 50 only Burt Ward and Lee Meriwether are still alive
  3. episode is from 1983 Mr Magoo was 70 the Skipper was 62 Lovey was 82 the Professor was 59 MaryAnn was 44 Jim Backus seems older than 70... this may be why On July 3, 1989, Backus died in Los Angeles from complications of pneumonia after suffering from Parkinson's disease for many years
  4. she and the Blob , a match made in heaven !! except they both couldn't fit in on the same cover ....
  5. dreck /drek/ Learn to pronounce noun INFORMAL noun: drek rubbish; trash. "that cover is pure dreck"
  6. he should be completely honest and also mention that the interior has also been color touched !!
  7. he should have mentioned that only 3 of the 4 edges are trimmed !! it would have confused some buyer for the better !!
  8. i never knew exactly how big those books were until now with the comparison photo's - thanks
  9. Hope you find it !! and i missed it when it was in the "spare a grade" section so i see it as a CGC 0.5
  10. yep like Bullseye,, his head is right in the middle of a target which wraps around his shoulders front and back.. and if that is not a good enough aiming point he has another target on his forehead,,,
  11. pretty sure you have drawn a Spidey variant costume as good as this robotic looking new one ...
  12. i tossed in a freebie when i first started selling on eBay five years ago ,, a comic from my childhood collection, i hated the cover and thought it was drek.. it was a DC Presents #26 in unread high grade.... i found out is was a key , i knew i had it , looked all over before i remembered what i had done with it....
  13. me neither, never noticed it before ,,, i feel dumb now ......
  14. some years ago i was going through some stuff and i found my high school diploma which i hadn't looked at in over 20 years and when i opened it there was five $20 bills that i had stashed in there and had forgotten about.. so that was a nice surprise
  15. not comics but coins, i hid a box of coins in my house about five years ago (worth about $1500) i didn't write down where i put them and i can't for the life of me find them now...boy did i hide them good ...
  16. @Math Teacher i once went to watch a professional senior bowling tournament and there was some big stars there , but one of the guys i had never heard of was pretty good too and i found out that he was in his fifties and had been avidly bowling for 45 years and that he had written down by hand every single game he had bowled in his whole life, frame by frame, and that he had saved every one of them in a five drawer file cabinet , his day job career was as a statistician ... just another example for you of how the mind of a mathematician can work
  17. agree and that was a good way of putting it
