Crap, I was hoping you actually read these things. So I guess there’s no one here who knows the answer.

How could anyone walk past that and not pick it up to see what happened/what it’s about etc?

Possibly my most favourite cover ever.

It appeals to me on the same level, yet for the opposite reason, as the ‘What’s going on in the locked room’ cover.

I have the same rule with continuity, if a writer is obviously playing fast and loose with continuity, I won’t judge a continuity mistake as harshly. If it’s a Kurt Busiek book where excruciating detail to continuity is evident;y being attempted, I’d nitpick on continuity more closely.

So we get all up in Flash’s grill for going many times faster than the speed of light but no-one minds this violating the first law of thermodynamics. Interesting.

It’s Silver Age DC. It’s written for kids, it doesn’t take itself too seriously and it’s supposed to be retarded. So it gets a pass.

“Red’s turning to green, huh? Guess I’ll take your word for it.”
