Come outta the hole, Ramon, I can take a joke...I just can't take the thought of "Lady Hex" becoming official DC2 continuity. Maybe as another gag movie like the "Suicidal Squadron", but not reality. Besides, you really want to traumatize Booster by setting him up with a tranny with MPD? Wait, you probably do...

Naw, I won't kill you...that's why I have a certain scar-faced bounty hunter on retainer. ;D Okay, that was my last pot-shot regarding this. War's over, you win, you got me good. Can we be friends again? PS - Feel free to rip on the Trigger Twins, I never liked them.

Yeah, it gets the best of me sometimes. The sig...
I LOVED IT! THE BEST ISSUE I'VE EVER READ ON THIS SITE! BEST ISSUE I'VE EVER READ, ANYWHERE!
Seriously though, it was pretty funny and kept me entertaiend throughout. I loved the bit with Stee tricking Booster with the coin...dunno why though.

Sorry, I didn't realize you wanted me to continue... You @^%^@#! How dare you insinuate that Westerns suck!?! Didn't you see "Brokeback Mountain"? That almost won an Oscar for Best Picture! Eat spit and die, honk mahfah! *ahem* That better for ya, Ramon? (for the record, I've never seen that flick, nor do I want to...but I did see it reenacted by cartoon bunnies over on Angry Alien) ;D Flash's kids are the Tornado Twins, who later on sired Impulse and the Legion's XS. The Trigger Twins were twin brothers -- one a lawman, the other a shopkeeper -- who used the fact that no one could tell them apart to confuse bad guys into thinking the lawman-brother was unbeatable, while the shopkeeper-brother played up the ruse that he was meek and mild. Kinda dumb. There's a modern duo by the same name -- no relation to the original, and they're hired thugs -- they pop up over in the Batman books from time to time. P.S. - Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries.

I just read both of the issues and I have to say I love them! I can see this being a hit because y'all have taken characters and brought them to such a high level of humor (Booster couldn't be any funnier). Question was great too, I think all of the characters were used very well. Keep it up.

And why do I feel like the only oddball here since I actually left feedback on how I liked this issue? Awkward....

Alright...
I found a free moment. This was funny... I liked the banter between Booster and anyone who will listen. The coin toss scene was great. Exactly what was Vic doing here though? The more I read into all of this the more I see the obvious Giffen/DeMattias influences.
Although why am I envisioning Booster as that ghetto 'gangsta rapper' persona that Jamie Kennedy created for himself?
And, it's about time a cover finally graces the book. I'd thumbnail it for the main page, but I still like the boobs.

Gives me an idea for issue #3's cover. Not that I'd step on anyone's toes... but 3 breasts in PG's shirt.

So now that there is finally a cover for this, can we change the thumbnail? I get tired of trying to explain when my middle daughter asks why we have "eggs" on there.
