DC Meets Hanna Barbera
As much as I’d like to read a new Booster Gold story, I’m not going to be forking out for the Booster Gold/Flintstones annual next year . . . nor the Adam Strange/Future Quest, Green Lantern/Space Ghost, or the Suicide Squad/Banana Splits annuals.
Never been a Hanna Barbera fan.
Now if it was Green Lantern/Marvin The Martian I’d be interested . . .

Crisis #7 Homage Page Updated
Over the last couple of months I’ve found a few new versions of the cover to Crisis on Infinte Earths #7, the classic death of Supergirl, as well as a couple of better resolution scans of some of them.
One of them, I admit, is a definite stretch but I had to include it for two reasons: first, it’s one of the original Star Wars covers from Marvel in the late 70s and that’s always a good enough reason to include it. Second was where I came across it.
Myself and a group of friends manage to get together for a beer once every three or fours months these days, talk about films and books and nonsense as we enjoy a few pints. The last gathering was in a pub in my town and at some point I headed down to the toilet to do what I needed to. As I walked through the corridor to the toilets, I noticed a collection of comic book covers as posters on the wall; there was a Star Trek issue and a Doctor Who but what caught my eye was this one:
Even slightly drunk and on a night out, I thought “That’s close enough for a Crisis homage, even if it does pre-date it” and took a photo so I wouldn’t forget.
I’ve included it in the homage page along with a bunch of new/better ones.

Crisis On The London Underground
Mrs Earth-Prime and I go to London quite often so some time back we bought our own Oyster cards – travel cards which you can top up with cash that let you ride the Underground so you don’t have to worry about having change.
Just for the hell of it, I bought us both some Oyster card wallets from Ownster, hers with a photo from a holiday we had as well as one of our cats, and for mine I chose this:
I am such a nerd.
