I heard that Aquaman's beard now stored Alan Moore's beard.

That makes sense. Now that he's retired, Moore doesn't have anything to do these days other than keep adding to his beard.

A beard is the term for the wife of a gay man who married her to hide his homosexuality

Although now, lots of gay men I know maintain real beards. Glorious facial hair!

Mary Beard is Britain's best known classicist. I'm sure she writes about a lot of gay men.

Cecil Beard wrote all the classic "Fox & Crow" comic book stories.

There is an Aesop?s fable in which a fox tricks a crow to give him some cheese because he flattered the crow.

There was an Archie comics story where Archie learns to use insincere flattery to get out of trouble around school.
The staff (Mr. Weatherbree, Ms. Grundy) taught him a lesson about it, by engineering things so... I'm trying to remember. It was either Veronica overhearing Archie flatter Betty, or Moose overhearing Archie flatter Midge.

If Archie worked on losing the insincere tone and did to everyone, then they might all think he's a nice guy. Anyone who is jealous from overhearing something, is insecure as well as an eavesdropper.

Reggie Mantle and Alexander Cabot are essentially the same character, although Alexander gets his comeuppance more often.

Next you'll be suggesting we shouldn't model our dietary habits on Jughead!

But how can that even be in dispute? Jughead is THE one sole good role model in the Archie world!

Other than the Aqua family, I wonder how many other comic characters like fish.

I'm sure many comic book characters love a good fish dinner!

I'd have thought they were wary of it. The last thing you want is Arthur Curry glaring at you over the JLA meeting table because you killed and ate his best friend.

Now we come to understand the real reason for the bitter rivalry between Aquaman and his arch-enemy, the Fisherman!

It's also why Aquaman initially didn't want to let Hawkman into the JLA!

I have the DC Archive for the golden age Hawkman. One of the stories has the pages out of order.

That's super-annoying. The GA Hawkman stories were generally pretty good, as I recall.

I remember reading the stories before they made Doctor Fate a more mystical hero.
