Post 223. tec27 argued for toast and coffee but I countered that presence of the Pep run was an indicator of a carnivore and that bacon or, possibly eggs -- he does collect Four Colors after all, would have to be involved.

BangZoom Posted June 12, 2007 Author Share Posted June 12, 2007 Little known facts: Detective Eye was one of many comics seeking to capitalize on the success of Batman. It was followed in quick succession by Trigger Finger, Nose for Danger, and Flatfoot. Later, after leaving comic books behind, the wandering Eye moved to the west coast to seek new adventures. Initially living with friends in the Maywood section of LA, the Eye hooked up with a colorful group of characters and was a key player in the burgeoning Hot Rod scene. He later served as a mentor to a young artist by the name of Von Dutch. Together they revolutionized the art of pinstriping. True story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert Beerbohm Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 My father had a Von Dutch flying flaming eye ball on his motor cycle gas tank back in the mid 1950s. I am impressed BZ knows of Von Dutch. Pop and Rick Griffin had a conversation about Von Dutch the first time they met in my Rick Griffin art gallery in The Cannery of Fisherman's Wharf San Francisco back in 1991.

The Black Hand ® Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 See, if I were Bangzoom, which I'm not, because I just checked my collection and it's pitiful and tiny...but if I were, I'd save the big guns for the end of the show and keep everyone on the edge of their seats.
