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" 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.

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"

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...

12) Eygpt 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.
