FYI


Did you know that Rob Liefeld originally pitched Youngblood as Team Titans to DC? Or that Kevin Smith killed Mysterio without talking to the Spider-Man office?

No? Neither did I. Why do you care? I don't know, but it looks like you do.

These, and other interesting tidbits of comic trivia can be found at a major feedsite near you. Comic Book Resources, I go to Newsarama personally, has a neat little ongoing forum, page, list..., something. It's awesome and it's called Comic Book Urban Legends Revealed History.

A Little wordy.

But it's still awesome; full of things you would never have even thought of. Did you know that the original villain in the first X-Factor arc, that's original series not the current one, was supposed to be The Owl, not Apocalypse. Age of the Owl. Heh.

Comic Book Resources is superior to Newsarama in so many ways, mostly because of columns like Comic Book Urban Legends Revealed, Lying in the Gutters, Permanent Damage, and One Fan's Opinion. Glad to see CBULR getting some hype!

yeah, dan's just a fanboy ;).

I dig Lying in the Gutters, particularly the swipe file

But Dan, you should check out the blurb about Darick Robertson and Scott Kurtz....
