Also, after reading about these Jimmy and Lois comics, as well as reading two Showcase Teen Titans trades, I think it's safe to say there was a MAJOR drug problem in the DC offices in the 60's... <br /><br />So, basically, the entire middle of this comic is just Superman telling us a story that came from his drug-addled mind?? Like, that's it?? And the drummer/spy couldn't think of a better way to get explosives to that ship other than directly involving Superman??? Not the best of plans... I am sad that the sex gun wasn't actually real, although I'm also disturbed that Supes, in his drugged up state, dreamed up his dad tying up his mom with a sex gun, right in front of him.<br /><br />Before I forget to ask, did the Clip Clops have a singer? Because it didn't seem like it, and you'd think that would be a major need for a band... Also, I laughed at poor Lucy Lane's rather sad antics in this one... She leaves Jimmy(smartly!) for a musician, gets dropped by said musician, and winds up back with Olsen! And the weird thing is that Lois wants her sister to be with Jimmy... Why?? Shit, I'd try to set my sister up with frigging old man Perry White before settling for Jimmy Olsen...x-man75https://www.blogger.com/profile/10292719455945603075noreply@blogger.com
