l. Eggplant parmesan

k. Baked ziti

Ravioli, we love ravioli...

Sorry, KK, no phallic vegetables for me (although Quis might like them) and it's not baked ziti as well.

LB, Spaghetti bolognaise... mmmm... but not my favourite... what I do like is ravioli... so take it away with the next question Kid Q!

Okay. Many, many, many years ago I submitted a Legion comic story script and artwork to DC Comics in hopes of launching a comic book creating career. What was the response I received?

a) A "thanks but no thanks" note on DC letterhead from Editor Julie Schwartz.

b) A kind response from Writer Paul Levitz with a sample script of his early writing enclosed.

c) A nice response and letter-size pencilled illustration from Superboy cover Artist Nick Cardy of my favorite Legionnaire, Colossal Boy.

d) A detailed account of what DC Comics looks for in an artist/writer by Editor KC Carlson and encouragement to buy "How to Draw Comics" and submit again later.

e) A full time job offer as an artist under the pen name "Sterenko".

f) A restraining order.

g) My package was returned after a few weeks unopened.

h) No response. Nothing. Nada. (cricket chirping sounds).

h) No response. Nothing. Nada. (cricket chirping sounds).

"h" is not the correct answer. Too bad for me it wasn't, or I could have spent a lot of daydreaming time of my youth more productively.

d) A detailed account of what DC Comics looks for in an artist/writer by Editor KC Carlson and encouragement to buy "How to Draw Comics" and submit again later.

a) A "thanks but no thanks" note on DC letterhead from Editor Julie Schwartz.

[I'll be away for a week, so if I get this right, KQ gets another go ]

g) My package was returned after a few weeks unopened

c) A nice response and letter-size pencilled illustration from Superboy cover Artist Nick Cardy of my favorite Legionnaire, Colossal Boy.

Answers "d", "a", "g", and "c" are all incorrect, although I would have loved to have gotten an illustration from Nick Cardy!

The remaining choices are "b", "e", and "f"

b) A kind response from Writer Paul Levitz with a sample script of his early writing enclosed.

Yes, "b" is the correct answer. I was very surprised to receive a package in the mail almost the size of the one I sent to DC. Inside was a great letter of encouragement from Paul Levitz who obviously took time from his busy schedule to look over everything I sent in and comment on it. I thought then (as I do now) that Mr. Levitz was a great writer for the Legion, but his personal letter to me also sold me that he is a class act as well. By-the-by, he included a short story script about a Dungeon & Dragons type adventure (with elves) he wrote pre-Legion. I still have it stored with my comics!

On to you, Mr. Esquire...

Yesterday I picked my brother and his partner up at the airport, from where were they returning from?

1) Paris, France
2) Paris, Texas
3) San Francisco
4) London, England
5) London, Ontario, Canada
6) Amsterdam
7) West Palm Beach, Florida
8) Palm Springs, California
9) Singapore
10) Venezuela
11) Washington, DC
12) Eygpt

11) Washington, DC

4) London, England

7) West Palm Beach, Florida

Actually I went to West Palm Beach with a connecting flight in Washington DC. Years ago I went to London, England and years before that my brother lived in England (and I assume had been to London once or twice)

But he wasn't in any of those three places this time.

12) Eygpt

6) Amsterdam

Novelty is correct.

I have travelled with all of the following airlines with the exception of one. Which one have I never "flown" with?

A) Qantas
B) British Airways
C) Singapore Airlines
D) Japan Airlines
E) United
F) Air France

Let's hope someone gets this by the end of the week...

A) Qantas

E) United
