No, ...James--<br /><br />you live in SF? color me jealous...<br /><br />No, the bottle has not arrived yet, but our rivers tend to get clogged with debris (medical waste, stoolies), so it may take a while.rob!https://www.blogger.com/profile/17556471244882205031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35995922.post-62435059827563047122011-08-21T02:14:30.235-04:002011-08-21T02:14:30.235-04:00Viva Adventure Sunday!
It's a shame Roy Thoma...Viva Adventure Sunday!<br /><br />It's a shame Roy Thomas never happened upon this story. Chuck Finn could have been an interesting addition to his Earth-2 series in the 80's. I do miss the radiation from last week, though. Hey, maybe if Chuck were bitten by a radioactive seahorse....<br /><br />So Rob, I threw a bottle with a message into the SF bay tonight. Has your octopus pal retrieved it yet?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35995922.post-5323634215307349792011-08-21T01:11:47.246-04:002011-08-21T01:11:47.246-04:00"[Sidekicks are] trouble!"? His Earth-On..."[Sidekicks are] trouble!"? His Earth-One counterpart would have some choice words to say about that, I'd imagine. :-p<br /><br />Noticed it's another story where someone gets in touch (right away at that!) with Aquaman via a message in a bottle...<br /><br />Re: Superboy: Yes, nice cover, and reversal of the order of the usual "faster than a speeding bullet..." phrase. (Though wonder if any kids reading were thinking "they didn't have jets when Superman was a kid!"). The story this issue: Superboy helps a reform school graduate get a new start on life, despite a school bully.Anthonyhttp://www.anthonynotes.com/blognoreply@blogger.com
