In the following sentences can you find the last name of the secret identities of some DC heroes? For example in the sentence: Ted knew estate law. You have Wally West's last name in "knew estate"

I did a couple of other of these. I may link them later

1) Darrin waited in the getaway car while Jack entered the bank.

2) Mary got her revenge by ripping Ray's only picture of his mother into bits.

3) The best way to start a fire is to use one big log and surround it with crumpled paper.

4) Irving ranted and raved about the new restaurant in his neighborhood

5) Doris snidely said that we'd need a sharper knife to cut Cindy's roast.

6) There is no way Ned would miss going to opening day for his favorite baseball team.

7) Dane was embarassed when the principal lent him a dollar for lunch.

8) Betthany was the first one in line to see the new Batman movie.

9) "For your intro, you want something that will capture the audience's attention" my music teacher always said.

10) Adam felt that Joan would accept his proposal when she saw the antique engagement ring he had bought for her.

#7 has me stumped.

So here's some other options to bide the time, based on the theme of the message board.


1) The sleek fish burst from the water, strong and shining like silver in the setting sun.

2) His niece’s performance on the harpsichord was abysmal, Lord Ipswich noted sourly.

3) Check the forward oxygen tanks to make sure that they did not spring a leak during the collision.

4) The stark emphasis he placed on the last word made it clear that the interview was over.

5) We might as well just paint targets on our head, with radar like this!

6) ‘All on board?’ the carriageman asked rhetorically as he whipped the horses into motion.

7) The archaeologist fumed, ‘I told you not to dig by the riverbed! Now all of these artifacts are ruined!’

8) ‘We’ve got to get there before Wilbur roughs up the wrong guys!’

9) I’ve never seen such a muddled, contradictory mess as the Fallon organizational chart.

10) The price of oil has fallen, although it is likely to rise again come summer.

Here are some I did featuring Marvel superheroes (using the superhero name)


1) Out in the country, Sarah taught in a multi-grade classroom which she grew to like teaching in that manner.

2) Abby wondered wether she had time for a bath or if she should just take a shower.

3) Only Becky liked the orange-lemon drink mix; everyone else preferred the grape-lime mix.

4) Camp Counselor Dave knew a spooky tale that would scare all the kids on the campout.

5) Commander LaForge reported that the engines were working within general operating parameters.

6) "Here is the ice ma needed for her party." yelled Tommy as he slammed the bag on the dining room table.

7) To be a star today, you have to be willing to endure many types of publicity stunts and constant media exposure.

8) The subconscious can make feeling that are dormant manifest in unexpected ways.

9) Senator Williams was a lying, scheming, ambitious politician known for his ruthless nature.

Nope on 5 and 10. A lot of Legion last names are kinda short, which makes it a bit tougher.

Set,

Your #5 is incorrect. All the others are correct.

OK, here are some more hidden word sentences. This time try to find the last names of the Legionnaires.


1. Monica asked the painters to darken the room to make it moodier for her seances.

2. Mr. Jones thought that the meeting went well and that we were all on board for his latest project.

3. Arthur hoped that the new aquarium pump would oxygenate the water better than the old one.

4. It was so nice of Peggy to make me a blueberry pie, that I could not tell her that I am allergic to blueberries.

5. Mark and June planned to spend their honeymoon in London, Paris, and Rome.

6. Alice could not decide between staying home with Ron or going out dancing with David.

7. Thanks to the telepathic earplugs from Titan, there was no language barrier between any of the Legionnaires.

8. Marian put a poinsetta in every room of the house at the start of the holidays.
