i got to see this docu on 'The Biography Channel' this evening !!! it the one you all watched a couple of months back ...

it was a nice surprise, because i did't know it was on !!! i just happened to be flicking through the channels, just before 9pm and i spotted it !!!

i thought it was done really well, giving a good run through comic history !!!

and it was cool seeing PAUL LEVITZ, so much !!!

We recorded it on our Tivo but haven't watched it yet. Just haven't had the time. But I did order the DVD so I would have a copy to keep.

I caught this by chance too matt. Fortunately I had a blank video in the machine and was able to get that and half of the show on the Phantom that went before.

And Levitz was not how I pictured him at all. A lot younger looking and much more oh I dont know, Accountant looking. [Smile]

when you looked at him, it was hard to believe this was the guy who's written all the stories we love so much !!!!

I saw it awhile back and thought Levitz was charmingly geeky! I kept thinking, "He's one of OURS (A LEGION fan)!"

I found the comparisons to what was going on with comics and the "real world" through the years to be fascinating...
