I've just updated my post about DC COMICS Limited Collectors' Editions by adding the SUPERMAN Vs. MUHAMMAD ALI Special from 1978. Wanna take a look? Then click here.
A cascading cornucopia of cool comics, crazy cartoons, & classic collectables - plus other completely captivating & occasionally controversial contents. With nostalgic notions, sentimental sighings, wistful wonderings, remorseful ruminations, melancholy musings, rueful reflections, poignant ponderings, & yearnings for yesteryear. (And a few profound perplexities, puzzling paradoxes, & a bevy of big, beautiful, bedazzling, buxom Babes to round it all off.)

Happy Easter, Kid - don't eat too many chocolate eggs and hot cross buns :D
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter to you too, CJ. Too late for me to follow that advice, alas.
ReplyDeleteCould never work out that when the artist drew this he had Superman above Ali and Ali above Superman.. Don't recall Superman being a dark skinned gentleman and Ali wearing red undies on the outside.
ReplyDeleteI think Adams was merely replicating a cover originally drawn by Joe Kubert, LH, who probably assumed that Supes' name would be above Ali's, and not side-by-side (more or less).
ReplyDeleteTo this day I still try to identify all the celebs in the audience. Some were comic professionals not known by their faces, some US celebs not well known to us the UK in the 70s. Some were just too small to make out.
ReplyDeleteAnd some were just not very good likenesses, PS. Still a nice book to have though.
