Naturally, Lex did it first.

I'm a tad puzzled. Lex can't vouch for Amazo's honesty but says he HAS to be honest because he's an android. That's ... pretty much vouching for it, right?
ReplyDeleteI remembering finding that puzzling in 1976. I believe that Lex by "honesty" means "goodness", "uprightness" (particularly since this is after the heroes choose Uncle Sam, a paragon of virtue, as their home plate ump). It's Amazo's VERACITY that is unquestionable. I mean... that is of course not true and never was before or after in any Amazo story. But they needed SOME excuse to have a villains ump that would be acceptable to the heroes.
ReplyDeleteIs that Dick Dillin art? There are some Bronze Age comics artists whose styles stick with me, and I can recognize them like a Las Vegas security camera. I think. 80% chance it's Dillin, 20% chance it's Irv Novick.
