Whenever there's a toy book or package art book - guess where the pics come from! Collectors. Hasbro simply never cared to archive stuff.

Ever wondered why not every old figure gets reissued? Because they dumped majority of toy moulds away long ago.

Damage has already been done and more than once.

What kills me is that not a single modern video software comes anywhere close to having transitions it had. 8[

"and that's also why The Rebirth was chopped down from 5 to 3 episodes."

Eh? To get over 100 eps they REDUCED amount of Rebirth eps? \8I

Then 21st century came and age of mediocrity began. Dynamite was next to pick up the license and at very least had enough brains to get JMS to do a run.

Now here we are with It Doesn't Work. Drawn by people who haven't moved past the age of 14, written by people who are stuck there as well. Great.

That went on for 91 issues. Years later NOW Comics did theirs. And oh, look, they had HARLAN ELLISON writing. And Don Glut. And JMS! Real writers who understand this stuff! All with pretty fine artists. Was short lived, but they understood the damn thing.

Now lets take a look back at 20th century. Gold Key was the first to do Twilight Zone comics. The publisher wasn't know for the most amazing scripts ever, but they sure had lots of talented artists. (The page on the right is by Alex Toth)

Previous issue was done by different people and it too failed to match maturity of Twilight Zone. When your stuff looks like this it ain't worth reading. Comic book is a visual medium so if you fail at art, you've failed with everything.

Especially since it was the Simpsons that predicted it.

"(...really Icarus?)"

Don't blame them, that was the super-duper-dark & savage story of the first four minicomics! :P

We owe so much to DC & Filmation for refining & fleshing out the premise.

totally never ever confused aaaaanyone.

"Who said that boys didn’t want to play with girl characters?"

Same person that made the call to have Teela 2-in-1 figure. :P
Originally Goddess/Sorceress and Teela were supposed to be separate toys. They then decided on this and to have Goddess you just put on the Cobra armor and staff which

"Nyah!"

Don't you start that! He ain't a gangster. >8P
