There were other goofy Legion applicants as well and I think it was intentional. Years later, a flashback story introduced Arm-Fall-Off Boy. He later changed his name to Mom!-Knock-First!

"hmmm....this all seems familiar somehow, as if I had seen it somewhere but I can't place it!" Um, maybe you saw it in "Empire Strikes Back"? hmmm.... wait a minute, this comic came out in 1958! HEY....George Lucas STOLE this idea from DC comics! Where's the light coming from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William-James88 Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 Kelley Jones is one of my all time favourite artists and he worked on my favourite characters, Morpheus and Batman. BUT, he probably gave us the most ridiculous looking image of robin I have ever seen. shiverbones 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Rain was great, and I looked forward to the follow-up graphic novel, and was very disappointed. Up until that point, he’d been one of my favourite Batman artists for a long time. It’s certainly a very unique interpretation of Robin. Edited August 27, 2020 by Ken Aldred Dave2739 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gadzukes Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 The Mirror Master has just "switched legs" with the Flash. How is this possible? Because it's DC silly. So Mirror Master is now the fastest man on earth, but WAIT..... Flash figures out if he "runs on his hands" he can keep up with the MM. Even if we grant that Flash's arms can move fast...... it doesn't mean you can run with them! He has to balance his legs in the air to make it work (new legs that he has never had before)! Do DC writers not know how awkward that is? 99% of humanity can't hold a handstand for more than half a second, but we're supposed to believe Flash can comfortably run on his hands.

1950's war comics Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 Flash had some far fetched villains and plots I knew I’d eventually have to tangle with my nemesis The Flash – that’s why I prepared this lightning-fast boomerang to streak back and knock him out from behind.” Brilliant!
