NOTE FROM DAVE:

Perhaps it’s just me, but it seems that every time
a creative team hits a groove on a comic book, a
new team shows up to take over. Sooner or later,
you just know it’s going to get too confusing:

The Top 10 Signs the Writer Has No
Idea Which Comic Book He’s Working On

10> Daredevil can’t seem to locate his invisible jet. Of course, *all* jets are invisible to him.

9> Batman doesn’t have a battle cry, and if he did it certainly wouldn’t be “Spoon!”

8> Look up in the sky! It’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s Aquaman!

7> Betty and Veronica make a bet — winner goes to the dance with Archie, loser goes with that farmboy Clark.

6> Suddenly and without warning, characters begin to behave like reasonable adults.

5> War journal entry: “He puts up a good front of being a ‘legitimate businessman,’ but I know the truth. Traveling the world, smuggling antiquities — lays just beneath

surface, and beneath that… how he really made that huge pile of cash. Tonight, Scrooge McDuck will be Punished.”

4> Well, Batman foiled the jewel robbery, but that skintight black vinyl outfit and whip were downright disturbing on Hello Kitty.

3> You don’t remember Sugar ‘n’ Spike having this many vampire-related storylines before.

2> Jonah Hex draws his revolver slowly, muttering, “It’s clobberin’ time!”

and the Number 1 Sign the Writer Has No Idea Which Comic Book
He’s Working On…

1> “Behold the new herald of Galactus: Cerebus the Aardvark!”
