Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for November 13, 2018

“Why don’t the bad guys just shoot Tom Mix’s horse?”

1) The Coyote has a gold card. 2) Krypton’s explosion was nuclear, making all the remains radioactive. Humans are too lite for the radioactivity to stay on them, but Kryptonians are dense enough to absorb the waves. 3) World travelers, who trust Donald enough. 4) She wore natural fibers. All organic stuff on her grew with her.

Sadly, the comments haven’t improved with age.

And then we contemplate the types of kryptonite and why red only works once per Kryptonian.

I hope Jimmy Johnson is going to tribute Stan Lee

The recent Ducktales cartoons are covering details about HDL’s parents.

Lil’ Arlo and his friend sound like a Big Bang Theory episode.

Huey, Louie and Dewey’s parents went to Peking and never came back.

Inquiring minds want to know.

Elsewhere on the web, this explanation re panel #2 was published yesterday: https://www.cbr.com/superman-kryptonite-origins/

Wiley gets a steady income off his judgments against Acme. Huey, Dewey and Louie’s parents showed up for a casting call for what they thought was a remake of the Marx Brothers Duck Soup. Unfortunately, it was for a Julia Child episode.

I’ve always assumed that Kryptonite doesn’t kill Superman, but it makes him mortal and vulnerable. That’s why people on Krypton (before it exploded) weren’t all flying around shooting lasers from their eyes and such – the radiation of their planet kept them “normal”.

Or if you prefer to think of it in other terms, Kryptonians evolved to be normal in the presence of that radiation. Superman is super powerful because he’s spent most of his life away from that radiation, but with the same genetics, so now his body is massively over-compensating.

Of course, this is based on nothing buy my own thoughts. I’m sure there are dozens of comic fans with authoritative answers.

@shamino Darn, you had me up to the last paragraph. A very reasonable and believable analysis.

I remember reading a Superman comic that explained Kryptonite affecting him for the same reason he had super powers, because of our yellow sun.

“How to Read Donald Duck” will explain all that about Huey, Louie and Dewey. Excellent book.

And the incredible hulk is never naked. Those are on powerful pair of Levis

I haven’t read superman in decades but I seem to remember he had the city of Kandor in his fortress ofsolitude. he did visit it and did not experience any ofthe symptoms of kryptonite

TV shows are supposed to make sense?

And because she’s a woman, 50 foot and all where does she shop for ehhh, well, stuff!

The most famous one is: Yeah, well if Goofy is a dog, what is Pluto?

The original story is that Huey, Dewey, and Louie are the offspring of Donald Duck’s sister Della (to whom he refers by their childhood nick-name “Dumbella”) and her unnamed husband (who presumably also has the surname “Duck”). There was an unfortunate incident in their household when a huge firecracker mysteriously detonated under Daddy Duck’s favorite armchair, sending him to the hospital, and so Della sent HD&L to live with their Unca Donald while Dad recovered.

I remember I used to always think, dang, why don’t those clothes just rip off?

Was my mother the car reincarnated when she died? Did Mayberry RFD really take place on a real farm? Was the original Lassie Black and White? When Heckle and Jeckle mixed it up with the scarecrow did the dog ever get involved? Was Felix the Cat racists? Did Flash Gordon really live in the 25th century? So many questions that would make great comment sections for arguing.

Personally, my question always was – with all the money he seemed to have why didn’t he just eat at a restaurant (or order carry-out)…

The “50 foot woman” comment was one I found disappointing as a boy, too.

yeah, i was disappointed by that last one too

Sadly, it’s too late to get Mr. Lee’s opinion..
