her lasso. You can see by the pull on the
rope that I'm not putting up any kind of
resistance. Well, would you?

BONUS: SECRET ORIGINS COVER GALLERY EXTRA...
 |
| Images copyright DC COMICS |
Let's take a little detour from our regular SECRET ORIGINS series and cop a gander at the covers of the original mags from the '60s that started the ball rolling. First up (above) is the SPECIAL GIANT ISSUE from 1961, followed by the 80 PG. GIANT #8 (below) which, despite its numbering, was the second issue in the 'Origins' series and which was released in 1965.
A new series appeared in 1973 and lasted seven issues, and you can see the covers by clicking this link. At the foot of this post are the replica editions of the two comics shown above and below, the first from 1998 and the second from '99. DC COMICS issued a follow-up issue in the style of the two '60s mags in 2003, and I've included that for good measure so that you've got all three. I'm not one to do things by halves, as you can see.
Anyway, have fun comparing the two original covers with their replicas, and leave a comment if you have any interesting thoughts, theories, or observations you'd like to share.
