Truth is beauty; beauty, truth


This may be the finest image ever published in a comic book. The more you look at it, the more you see. No matter what troubles you, no matter what questions gnaw at your soul, this panel will offer insight.

I defy anyone to suggest an improvement.

Unless there are three suns, the shadows under Robin's ear, cape, nose and lip are wrong. If it is casting such a strong shadow under his ear and lower lip, there should be one under his nose... and the shadow under the cape is just plain wrong.

Ooooh, how I love the silver age of comics, both the dialog and story lines, but even more so the artwork. I'm no artist, and am by no means an art critic, but it's such a brighter and cleaner look compared to most of the artwork in DC/Marvel comics today, which is so dark--literally--and over drawn, to my eyes.

I get most of my epiphanies from Krazy Kat.

If I call in sick tomorrow, it will be because I got a hernia from laughing.

Bitch!
