Today I saw a sign that said EQUALITY IS THE TITS, which certainly reminded me of a certain absent friend and his love for a certain term.

January 22, 2017 is the 49th anniversary of our olde pal MLLASH's birth. 49 + Lash, eh? Hmm....

Did Lash ever do much talkin' about that matter-consuming fellow? Maybe....

BLANK STARE

FONDLED OR MURDERED?

*choke!* + towel pic = double MLLASH score!

Representation of weird people-in-giant-hand fetish? Sure!

Squishy! Cardy! Candy!

Very Trishy.

Superman's Pal & Gal?

More like MLLASH's Frenemies Jimmy Olsen and Lois Lane!

(And don't get him started on Pete Ross!)

I wonder if this kid ever got an order for a Matt Damon robot....

Not to mention the Blue Meanies and the Brown Acid.

Lash would also advise you to watch out for the JSA...and read it!

*tee-hee!*

Happy Birthday, Lasher. You are still missed.

The Big Five-O?

Well, Lash would be all over that. But I only know from comic book covers. So....

CLASSY!

MANLY!

FLASHY!

LOVEY?

STAR SIGN-Y!

SEVENTIES SWINGING! SPACE STARTLING! SONGSTRESS SCENEMAKING!

[DROP THE MIC]

Q: How do you follow the crème de la crème?

A: With something savory.

Just had to reread a love letter to LASH this morning. Thanks, Debutante!

I trust my IMMA BEAT YOUR ASS, LASH threads are next.

Call them Legion for they are many.

So angsty...

Of course, she does this five times a day. He talks to his dentist, bookmaker, accountant, travel agent and clients of the phone sex operation he runs from that office in ways that he never talks to her.

Why can't I find comic book references to 52?

...but, y'know, Lash was an improviser, so I'll improvise like Lash!

Annnnd like me. Here's five sets of images, two days early!

I think we all signed up to dodgy Golden Age Hypnotherapy to forget the whole DC Event.

Some lovely covers though...

Astro City: The alternate Crisis Finale with the Phantom Stranger and Auntie Mon in a dance off for the fate of the multiverse.

Strange Tales: The noir themed Hide and Seek Tournament hijacked when one of the contestants is given secret atomic formulae.

Planet Comics: Mysta of the Moon showing some suggestive costuming well before Shrinking Violet got something similar.

Green Lantern: One of these characters is a Space Fascist. But which one?! Wrong. It's both. Guardians indeed.

Young Love: The hair accessory crisis of '61 that prevented people getting the pigtails they wanted...and deserved! That poor girl now sits in the dark without them!

53 is a PRIME number.


Mmmaybe not so much for the no-longer-swinging 70s Teen Titans.





OK, what about when they got hot again in the 80s?

[

How about some LOVE then?

Okay, EXCITEMENT and PARANOIA it is!

Crumbs! More Teeds cover posts. I'm ...




But then, how did Teeds know I was eagerly waiting for covers...Gah! Now I'm ...

Feh! I'm sure those lushly-drawn romance comics have 0.000000% sex inside them!

NOT! INTERESTED!

The sideways M's on Miss Masque's costume are just so weird.

Maybe she's a fan of E.E. Hibbard.

Martian Manhunter's early attempts at ccostumed identities weren't quite right.

Prescient! This resembles what Lardy's gettin on his birthday thread.

Tut. No one ever gives me fancy decimal points.

What did Tut get you?

Crocodiles?

Better crocodiles than an old Steve Martin album.

Holy funky Tut, Batman

I for one totally have something cool that I plan on posting for Lardy on his birthday this year!

That ridonkulous Lash imparted at least 54 life lessons for our edification. Shall we ruminate on a few of them?

PARTY WITH FLOOZIES!

FLING BOTTLES!

GET PATSY!!




AND LOIS!!

LAST BUT NOT LEAST --- QUASARS?!?

Is a 55 grand plan needed? Let's just kick back and enjoy.
Like leisure-lovin' Lash!


(IT PLAYS TO A STRENGTH)

SHOW A LIL SKIN

COMMUNICATE WITH CHUMS!

AND, OF COURSE, ENJOY SOME FUNNYBOOKS

56?!?

(Yep, on Monday. This is the Early Bird Special.)

That's the hat EDE wore on his trip to Mega City One!

Hey EDE! That goil nabbed yer hat!

Interestingly, "Clinging Vine" was the name of a super-villainess I once went on a date with!

With the power to constrict... and never let you go!
