Why is Jean Loring's mom beating up that guy?

Derek said...

I... I think I'm in love.

*sigh* Why is it always the crazy ones...?

Scipio said...

Well done, Jonnie.

That's not her mother, but a Jean Loring fan.

Anybody remember "The Kidney Lady" from Howard The Duck?

Where is she now?

Rob S. said...

I've... I've read that book.

What is that?

Scipio said...

Sword of the Atom Special No. 1, 1984.

It's a hard scene to forget, isn't it?

Chance said...

That's... utterly beautiful. man, whoever wrote that knew how to string words together.

Somehow I have a hard time imagining Ray Palmer lounging around in silk pajamas eating fish eggs with chopsticks.

Scipio said...

That's not Ray, it's Jean's law partner, Cheez E. Mustache.

I always assumed this tirade was inspired by Teri Garr's "I'm responsible for my own orgasm" speech in Tootsie, which came out two years before.

I really thought this was some outraged mother beating up Tony Stark, and began cheering.

But beating up Jean Loring's sleazy law partner is a good thing too.

Oh, bravo. I suppose his father was a sheriff named Drew P. Mustache?

Mike Noga said...

She deserves her own page in the Who's WHo in the DC Universe. DO they still do that?

For a second there I thought Tony Stark had gone slumming.

Yeh, anonymous, I thought "Kidney Lady" immediately. Thanks, Steve Gerber.
