I read the Nightwing / Magilla crossover. Nice murder mystery!

A lot the appeal of Magilla and the rest of the classic 1950s and 1960s Hanna Barbera characters had to do with the work of the studio's chief designer, Iwao Takamoto. The basic look of the characters is Takamoto's own style.

Unlike a lot of unsung heroes of animation, Takamoto was well compensated. He eventually became a Hanna Barbera executive and stayed there for the rest of his life.

Good for him, glad his value was recognized!

That makes a nice change from the stories of lots of other creators.

Indeed - Its sounds like one of the few happy endings for creators of that era that doesn't involve massive amounts of backstabbing and abuse.

Megillah is Yiddish slang for a long and convoluted story.

That is an extremely useful word these days. not just in comics, but for my boring acquaintances who think I am their personal journal

Just the facts ma'am, I want to say to some people. Oddly, the ones with little time for others, are amongst the worst for yakking on.

My man has a colleague who always complains about how busy she is... but she spends more time complaining than actually doing anything

Of course, it's important to avoid the trap of spending ages complaining about complainers.

I'm gonna screenshot this and post it on the other forums I am on the debate usually leads to this point anyway, and after that we usually have at least 2 people dramatically announcing they will leave forever!

Members of the Fantastic Four used to consider quitting, or actually did so, on a regular basis.

The Avengers, too!

One thing I loved about the Legion was its relative stability, few members left and we generally kept adding more. (well, until late V3 and basically whole of V4...)

I should get a special badge for people who've left forever the most number of times.

Maybe one of those Starbucks-type stamp cards. "Ah, this is your 12th public tantrum - here, have a free goodbye cupcake on us!"

The Legion generally expelled members and made them take the walk of shame, rather than allow them to quit.


There must be 50 ways to leave at least...

HAH! You beat me to this - I was thinking of something similar!


I have it on good confidence that slipping out the back is the first option.

From the rejected threads, thread...

I *almost* got those high notes when I karaoke'd "Leaving Las Vegas."

It was genius to make the karaoke rooms smaller. Sure, you have to stumble over people's feet, but projecting sound in a space the size of one's own room at home is *super* easy!

It's like that in my building. 6 of the apartments share a small corner... we are well-protected from noise coming from elsewhere, but if one of us makes a racket we all 6 hear it double

I live close to a river. Loud noises can reverberate down it. There are hills too, so you get some odd acoustics.

I'm sure you came closer than Sheryl Crow ever has.

The sad part was that I couldn't get Eminem's "Shake Dat Ass" because someone else had already called dibs on it.
