Manic Monday Triple Overtime--Oh, So That's Where Superman Learned To Do That!

It's just another day in Keystone City, and the Flash is putting more perps out of action!

The man needs a vacation--and Jay's about to take one!!

Good point...but:

Wait--that's totally ripping off the 1978 Superman movie!!

And what do you know...it works!!

But so much for rest and relaxation--Flash get caught up with Robin Hood shenanigans!! And it turns out--he's supposed to be there!!

Well, after many silly but wonderfully fun pages, Flash rousts the bad guys, and finally gets his down time:

Jay Garrick, you lucky bastard--I miss you.

REPOST--Let's (Not) Kill Hitler!!

For some reason, this 2013 ditty was by most popular post ever, at least in terms of continuing number of hits.

Well, for some pretty obvious reasons, I guess, as Mental Floss and TV Tropes linked to it in time travel articles.

So, anyway, here again is...Let's Kill Hitler!!

******************************************************


Let's say that, for your birthday, you get a laser rifle and a time machine.

Well, it's pretty obvious what most of us would do, right?

But people never think past that first step...

Well, still, he died saving millions, right?

Uh-oh...

D'oh!!!

Fortunately...

So now someone else gets to be the hero by killing you...

Except, of course, it becomes a never ending chain...

There was an awful big pile of future bodies backstage at the Nuhremberg Rally...

Time Travel: leave it to the professionals, OK, kids?
