Yeah me too, especially since when looking through an old dresser the other day I found a note you’d written me on DC stationary from when you worked there! lol

It would be nice to flip through it. I’m not sure I’d want to own it or not though. These days I’m finding myself trying to know less and less about the behind the scenes area of movies, comics, etc. It makes it more fun.

James: It’ll likely be after Christmas for that. It was a very interesting flip-through, that’s for sure. I was surprised that I liked the text more than the artifacts, although like KC, I had the advantage of already knowing what the stationery and notepads looked like.

When I was in Borders the other day, they had a big stack of them (I’d say 6 or 7). None of them were open to peruse, sadly.

Hmm, it sounds interesting. I hope they mark it down, like I saw the Marvel one marked down for $12 at a book store the other day.

I think it’d be great to look through. A lot of this stuff I’d never heard of, but I bet its neat to see how things were in such a different time in the industry.

Ha ha! You made KC yell at himself. He meant “Starman”. Which I have fixed in the review.

OK, how many DC characters were named “Sandman” other than the obvious three?

(Oddly enough, I had just been thinking about this, coming up only with the new Vertigo Sandman – which I don’t count, as an extention of Dodds, just as Daniel might as well be Morpheus – and the Sandman Superman.)

KC,

Great review. I like how you can give an insider’s perspective.
