When I was born....
Eclipso tried to destroy his alter ego / arch enemy Bruce Gordon by using a giant, red ore-crushing robot.
Named "Roger".
*Sigh*.
Why are robots always red?
Who names an ore-crusher?
Why would it have feet?
Does Eclipso not know how to use a gun?

Welcome and thank you, JNR; please comment frequently! I, too, was a big Eclispo fan; always wanted him to team up with Two-Face.
ReplyDeleteMy attitude has always been:
comics ARE deadly serious and I take them that way. They are ALSO completely hilarious and absurd, and I take them that way, too.
The two aren't mutually exclusive; it's all in how you look at it, and THAT is what makes comics cool.
