Andrew - Strange is cool

Steve - Totally!!! Why is that??

Andrew - I’m not sure — just something about those DC characters

Andrew - the older ones, anyway

Steve - Is that it? I could never figure out why I liked Adam Strange, yet I always have.

Andrew - I feel like it has something to do with DC not taking place in the “real” world like Marvel, but I’m not sure

Steve - That might be part of it, but there’s still some weird attraction the Adam Strange stuff has that I think goes beyond that.

Steve - Adam Strange should just be a watered down Flash Gordon knock off, but somehow, I dig AS a lot more than FG as a character.

Andrew - I haven’t even read that much about him — just know he’s dope

Steve - I don’t think I’ve read too much with him either, really, but when he shows up in a book, I dig on it just a little more.

Andrew - totally

Steve - Always liked his Justice League appearances a lot for some reason.

Andrew - all I remember off hand is the Alan Moore stuff in Swamp think

Steve - Jesus - he’s in ST? I really need to get those TPBs…

Andrew - can get wordy, but man, when it’s good…holy shit

Andrew - “In a guest appearance in Swamp Thing, writer Alan Moore invented a new past for him, one in which the people of Rann were slowly dying out due to declining fertility, and the actual intent of the Zeta Beam was to bring Adam to them as a breeding stud.”

Steve - Wonder if Diggle and Ferry will be following up on that at all?

Andrew - not sure

Steve - Ack. Whatever. Strange rules, Diggle knows how to write and Pascal Ferry’s art has gone from good to amazing.

Steve - Sold.
