Welcome to......
Kill This Thread LVII
The following rules were established by Kent Shakespeare at the start of the first 24-hour version, adapted from the original rules by EDE:
The rules:
1. The Basic Idea: Post to this thread, if no one posts after you for 24 hours, you win!
2. Posts that are not direct responses to one of the five preceding posts are ineligible to win. The topic can drift, but no complete non-sequitors. Posts that are responses to non-sequitors are also ineligible to win. Posts that are responses to responses to non-sequitors, and response nses to those posts, etc., become eligible, however.
3. In the event that this thread is locked, there shall be no winner unless a new thread is started for the contest. Furthermore, any post that results in the banning of the poster shall also be ineligible to win.
4. So, more precisely, one wins if one makes a post, and then no one makes another post that's eligible to win for 24 hours.

Perhaps we should put these threads on hiatus for a while. There, I win again!

I picked up some Flash silver age books. About first up was the Turtle. No cast of thousand similar characters, no unnecessary decompressed stories. Just fun.

Why wasn't there ever a Silver Flash? Not a Silver Age one but one coloured silver - like some metal - say perhaps - Mercury?

I think that was a throwaway version used in one of the Morrison issues.

It was probably a nod to the Silver Surfer. A transluminal, silver coated herald.

I read a later volume of the JLA by Snyder. Lots of flying across the universe, doing things just because.

Giving people fake flight rings and telling them to test them from tall buildings is wrong. Bad Ibby.

Adjusting telepathic earplugs to only hear offensive remarks was nothing to do with me.

A quick look at the news this morning, would indicate that this is already happening.

very good reasons not to look at the news.

That's what happens when reading the news, instead of looking out for roadworks.

I imagine Space Whales have a super liver as well - or at least a very big one.

I'm sure they have a whale of a time, on the booze.

Hellboy also spent a fair bit of time in a monster whale creature too.

On one season of the Amazing Race, a contestant got the nickname "Hellboy" because of his hairstyle
