Soap Shapes Number Two

Ok, when I get a lot of soap scraps, I mash them all together and use the result as a new bar of soap, after soaking the mess for a day or two to make it squishy.

This means that Some funny shapes happen.

After a few days of this one compound, I set it down and looked twice.  I said, "Hmmm."

Suddenly I was hungry for barbecue!

Does this closeup make it plainer?

See you on Monday, my carnovorean compadres!

  

The Amazing Heroes Hoax Contest! – Part 2

Part 1 here.

To refresh your memory, here is the article from the April 1, 1985 Amazing Heroes.

Welcome back, fellow Super Sillies!

“The Man with Superman’s Heart” is an actual tale, the cover story for World’s Finest #189.  I covered it in a 2020 Super Blog post.

“The Secret of Silver Kryptonite” is the cover story for Superman’s Pal Jimmy Olsen #70, cover-dated July 1963.

Almost certainly inspired by then-current Paul-is-dead rumors, “Dead … Till Proven Alive” led off Batman #222, cover-dated June 1970. 

“The Ransom of Superman” is another tale from Jimmy Olsen, issue 81, cover-dated December 1964.

The final story mentioned in this article, “Lois and Lana Join Forces,” is the SECOND fake story.  However, it’s modeled on an actual team-up in an issue of Superman’s Girl Friend Lois Lane from 1964.  Issue 52 narrated the two gals’ alliance against Illena, a temptress from the planet Kronal.  What’s really creepy is who Illena REALLY is.

And who would’ve thought that ANYBODY would keep Medusa’s head for thousands of years as a keepsake?

And, my friends, the April Foolery ain’t done yet!

The name of the magazine is not Monolithic Heroes!

Well, my friends, how did YOUR brain fare with this April Fool’s quiz on DC history?

See you on Thursday!
