Mort Weissinger was a big guy and there are rumors he used to fling freelancers who had angered him, off of the roof of the DC Offices  One had to tread lightly. GOD BLESS ...

My favorite Superman artist, Wayne Boring, when asking for some work around the time Curt Swan was replacing him, was told by Weisinger, "Do I need to kick you in the stomach, so you'll realize you aren't wanted around here anymore?" Weisinger wasn't a Kirby fan either, for some reason. 

OK, enough is enough! I can't take anymore. Can we start a monthly JimJum Fireside Chat series?

We little "youngster" birdies can sit around the fire begging for knowledge morsels, while Jimbo drops knowledge bombs at his leisure.

To me, this sounds MOST excellent.

@Corvonie and @flying_bison will likely tell you I'm just your "fluffer" with these words, but I do think it would be AWESOME. Every time you open your mouth, I remind myself I'm about to learn something (i.e., STFU and listen!).

Super solid snag on your FF  btw - congrats man - I was on the fence for days about whether or not to pick it up. Glad it's going to you.

All kidding aside, 99% of what I know comes either from Comic Book Marketplace, or Alter Ego. Many issues are available on eBay. GOD BLESS ...

Ok, everybody!

I think all invoices have been sent out.  Please let me know if you haven’t received a message from me with an invoice. 

I’m already trying to figure out what we can do for the next one!  

This was a lot of fun and I’ll be in touch and let everyone know their books have shipped.
