Silver Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 Yes, this is cheating. But they post derogatory comments about the lameness of DC horror when I post them in the pre-code horror thread. They are very naughty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tth2 Posted April 1, 2005 Author Share Posted April 1, 2005 Yes, this is cheating. That's it Adam, off these boards you go, and don't darken our doorway again! If you can't play by the rules, then don't play at all, I say. Or, in lieu of banishment, as a penalty you must post 5 previously unposted books, but all of them must make at least 5 different forum members go and .

Scrooge Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 Tim, you forgot that part of Adam's penance will be to ship all his Infantino covers to me! Kidding aside, you never stop Adam, do you? Another gorgeous copy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamstrange Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 Adam, You have any precode Superboy, Superman or Adventure Comics? Yes I'm debating starting a thread in GA for post-gold, pre-silver kinda stuff. As soon as I figure out what to call it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, Tim, we got pinned by the Web gods! Re: Atomic Age deserves it's own forum. If I start a thread with that people usually think of horror sci/fi good girl and the more outrageous stuff rather than some of the 50s hero and tamer material.

If I start a thread with that people usually think of horror sci/fi good girl and the more outrageous stuff rather than some of the 50s hero and tamer material. Nah, I think people would understand it basically covers all sorts of stuff from the late 40s (1948? 1949?) up to the month before Showcase 4. Don't know if AA has enough of a following at this point to deserve its own forum, but the only way to find out is by starting a thread. Start it in the GA forum, and if it generates a lot of interest, perhaps the Web gods can be persuaded to create a AA forum and move threads in there. Of course, AA is not an officially recognized era by Overstreet, so perhaps it might never get its own forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do think a little celebration is in order as this is the first thread pinned in SA, but, I have to ask, what's up with all the dancing fruit? The GA forum already has pre-code horror, crime, and good girl threads (I've contributed to all 3), and I don't want to dilute them by doing an Atomic Age thread. There aren't enough of us "Atoms" around. Maybe I could do an Atomic Age Heroes thread? Edited April 2, 2005 by adamstrange Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a little bored of the dancing banana, so decided to add some other fruit to the mix. An Atomic Age Heroes thread would be outstanding. But I would have nothing to contribute.

tth2 Posted April 2, 2005 Author Share Posted April 2, 2005 Alright, I'm convinced. Do you want Atomic Age Heroes or generic Atomic Age? How about anything that fits the atomic age? That would be "generic" Atomic Age! I think Adam makes a good point, there are already some threads featuring subsets of the Atomic Age. To avoid overlapping, I think it should just be limited to superhero titles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But given my reputation for dishonesty, I don't think we'd police it so heavily that we couldn't slip in something cool every once in a while.

Well, there are already horror, good girl and war threads, and the Ducks thread cuts across all eras. So besides superheroes, what else is there? Romance? Classics Illustrated? Westerns?

I love the "what else's" so I've come up with a title that hopefully will work. At least I'll contribute to it.
