    I always thought of Rob Liefeld as Comics’ Michael Bay

    Happy to hear some Paul Grist coverage! Just went down a big hole starting with Kane and following through Jack Staff and I was just blown away by his work!

    The Wolverine and Deathblow two issue crossover is surprisingly good Marvel/Image.

    I always though the big 'A' on Cap's head was kind corny. the eagle was kinda cool costume update IMO

    Hurricane aka Shane Helms was 100% inspired by the Kyle Rayner green lantern, I'm pretty sure he's got a GL tattoo. I always appreciated when a wrestler was openly a comic nerd

    Stardust was made into a movie in the mid-late 2000s. There are some fantastic hardcover printings of the book.

    I went to art school in 2000, and somebody brought one of those Dynamic Anatomy books to an anatomy class, and the teacher told them to get it out of here 😂

    I do have that Badrock crossover. I also have a Michael Turner Witchblade/Wolverine one-shot.

    NEIL GAIMAN AND CHARLES VESS' STARDUST is really wonderful and is still available as a $20 trade paperback.

    Vandal Savage looked like Ross used Orson Welles as reference.

    The Brinke Stevens comics that came out were Chaos and some rando company that called itself High-Top that only ever printed Brinke Stevens comics.
    They were fine - one of them has a Boris Vallejo cover.
    Wonder if the Ben Marra-esque movies you're thinking of are those Andy Sidaris flicks? Man, I love that junk

    That TSR ad had prime real estate, but 11 months after Wizard #57, WotC bought TSR due to its debt / insolvency. I remember seeing ads for Blood Wars, but I never saw anyone playing it or heard anyone talking about it. For reference, even though I didn't play Pokémon, I still heard plenty of buzz about it back then.

    Do you guys remember an issue of Wizard where they made their own American League of Extraordinary Gentlemen? They had Indiana Jones leading…what issue was that?

    The Stardust movie was great. It knew the story was from the 90s, but never saw the comic version, just the novel. Thanks for another scavenger hunt

    Given that you've both expressed your admiration of Rick Vietch as a creator, I'm really surprised you continue to bag on Teknophage given the fact that they were written by Vietch. It fits in perfectly with his creator owned work thematically. Particularly since he is playing off of Neil Gaiman's ideas. It's a good collaboration and I'm also down with Bryan Talbot's art. It's very much a Vertigo style book.

    QuarkXPress was an industry standard publishing suite for preparing print ready files - probably the program Jim is trying to remember

    I can't believe there isn't an archive of that coddbarrett software anywhere. If someone has a floppy of it somewhere, we need to get it uploaded for posterity. I can't even find a screenshot of what the interface looked like.

    As far as I can remember, the only time Alex Ross worked with Liefeld was just as Awesome was going down in flames and Ross had done some redesigns for Alan Moore's Supreme run which were never used. Which is a shame, but probably fortunate that we got ABC comics instead which Ross did the covers for the first issues.

    Stardust can be found in pretty much any major book seller today in multiple formats, in addition to having been adapted into a major motion picture by Matthew Vaughn (Kingsmen) that starred Michelle Pfieffer, Robert Deniro and Clare Danes. It was a bold leap at the time for DC/Vertigo to publish illustrated prose, but I'd say they would have been happy to take any Gaiman project following the success of Sandman and Gaiman moving on to prose novels and TV/Movies.

    You're thinking of Andy Sedaris movies, Ed. Good stuff!
