I'm sure lighthouse will disagree but these are just absurd:

Notice they involve Superman?

Actually, I've already seen them. There's a reason I like Post-Crisis more then Pre-Crisis. Story concepts like these are why.
In the first one there wasn't anything wrong with her, but she was under hypnosis, and thought she was ugly.:nono:

If you think those were bad, look for one titled Dr.Giggles.

I think Robin was cutting Batman an awful lot of slack by calling the costume he's wearing "red."

I guess "hot pink" took up to much space.

Ok that's disturbing.

I'm just glad the new writers are writing what they want, instead of what they think will work for little kids.

Unfortunately most comics aren't really for kids anymore.

Unfortunately?! Bite your tongue!

Kids need things like decent comics about heros they can respect.
Lighthouse

There are comics for kids. But if it weren't for the writers writing for themselves, what would I read? I'm not a kid, I'm 24.:eek:

Other books?

Ninjashadow

How about a philosophy book taught by Batman?

The Joker could come in with some alternate thinking from Batman's and Batman could whoop up on him.

Well you could read some Spider-Man, X-Men, Iron Man, Wolverine, etc., ...
I also liked some of the Spawn comics as well.

Well you could pick up a Wixard or one of the many other magazines that review comics. Sometimes they even have stuff about video games but not much. You could get some of the graphic novels. I picked up one a few years back that shows all the variations of Spide-Man's wedding; in the comics, at Yankee Stadium, dailies, and in some of the side-titles.

They're real, mostly from the 50s and 60s.

There's a Batman history, villians, "powers" etc., book I saw at Barnes and Noble the other day. I almost bought it.

The nutty thing's that my father owns a lot of these and I recognize easily a third of the covers...

If you were a real geek, you would have starved to have that book.

She had the lead helmet but no lead lined bra or panties .

Lighthouse

She didn't think the rest of her body was ugly. She just didn't want Superman to see her face, because she thought it was hideous.
