"No man can lick himself, Atom-- and that's what we were trying to do!"Oh, how ribald! Once upon a time in comics, people could stay thing like this. Now we can't; I blame it on those Beavis & Butthead fellows.
Anyway, this quote is even more ironic that it seems at first...
who said it?
Heh, heh.
ReplyDeleteNope. Nice, though...
Elongated Man?
ReplyDeleteI want to say Wildcat. Because he's a cat. They lick themselves. Irony! Like rain on a wedding day.
ReplyDeleteClever! But not correct.
ReplyDeleteHawkman, probably.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to take a chance and say it was the Atom himself.
ReplyDeleteNo, it doesn't make sense to me either, but I'm sticking with it. ;-)
That's good "Silver Age" logic, JM!
ReplyDeleteBut this quote is from the Golden Age (and it's not THAT ironic).
Green Arrow? I have no idea.
ReplyDeleteNo, it's someone who would have been chatting with the Atom in the Golden Age...
ReplyDelete...a fellow JSAer.
ReplyDeleteWonder Woman? (she was in the JSA right?, I can never remember)
ReplyDeleteIf not my guess is the Spectre, Green Lantern, or Dr. Midnight.
I must end the torture.
ReplyDeleteIt's the Spectre, who as Hal Jordan recently "licked himself" as Parallax.
Ha it was my second guess? Do I win an Absorbascon No Prize?
ReplyDeleteSorry, Shane; how about just a "No"?
ReplyDelete*chuckle*, as the Legionnaires used to say.
Ha Ha...
ReplyDeleteI guess I can settle with your continued blogging as prize enough.
