I keep a mental list of things I’m gonna ask famous people if I ever get to meet them. Now I know what to ask Neal Adams.

Dude, those are three of my favorite columns so far. Enlighten your mindset. Enjoy the bizarre and the weird and the silly. Good, fun silliness like this should be rewarded.

Your top 3 worst choice of entry in this column so far:
3. Mr. T and the T Force (even by Neal Adams!)
2. Chuck Norris (even by Ditko!)
1. NFL SUPERPRO (not even a legendary creator to make it worth a comment!)

Yeah, I couldn't tell if Chris was being facetious there or not. I think some of the issues did ask readers to "join the T-Force," after all...

According to Chris Sims, the T-Force is: "The T-Force isn't an organization. No, it's apparently some kind of mystical energy field that gives Mr. T superpowersv. Superpowers that help him to battle the real problems faced by today's kids. Namely, Drug Dealing Incan Robots With Guns For Arms."

The Mr. T clip where he is motivationally rapping about yo mama is from his motivational video for kids called “Be Somebody, or Be Somebody’s Fool!” and it is the most awesome thing ever. If you must own the T Force comics, then you also must own “Be Somebody, or Be Somebody’s Fool.” It includes some sweet scenes of Mr. T breakdancing, an explanation of why he wears the chains and his old busted up boots, and such amazing exclamations as “Absoludicrous!” and “1 out of 1 Dr. T’s recommend it!”. Seriously. Go to Ebay now.

The movie came out at the same time as the vinyl LP which went along with it “Mr. T’s Commandments”…..AND THE SONGS WERE CO-WRITTEN BY ICE-T ON BOTH THE VIDEO AND THE RECORD.

Wait a second, I’ll repeat that. ICE-T FREAKING CO-WROTE THESE SONGS WITH MR. T. O.G., indeed.

I second your nomination for ‘best comic ever’. Move aside Alan Moore, cos it’s a crack baby…FOOL!

I would buy the Mr. T cartoon if it ever came out on DVD. And I’m not ashamed to admit it…

In The New Mutants #7, the team fought a guy named Axe who was exactly like Mr. T except he was evil and fought with, you guessed it, an axe. That’s as close as I know of Mr. T ever taking on a mainstream Marvel character.

I am happy to own an issue of this fine periodical; pity me not.

I forget which issue number I have, but it appears to have been the second part of a two-parter, in which Mr. T clears his name of a crime he did not commit.

You can never have enough magical space dinosaurs from another dimension in a comic book, I say!
