Great...That's so cool to hear, Ward Hill Terry. Great post, Bully! <i>All-Star Squadron</i> pushed all the right buttons for young Blam, obsessed with the Golden Age, parallel universes, and continuity. One line full of typos you might want to correct, though: "<i>he;s</i> also brought back <i>supervaillains</i> experienced in the art of defeating the <i>Justice League</i>" should be "<i>He's</i> also also brought back <i>supervillains</i> experienced in the art of defeating the Justice <i>Society</i>". I can only imagine how difficult it is to type with little stuffed hooves, especially when overcome by excitement and emotion for such a post as this. 8^)Blamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07342343767763035991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16823651.post-82504028893479668222016-12-10T20:41:24.334-05:002016-12-10T20:41:24.334-05:00Great post, Bully!

In ...Hi Bully- Great job as always!Just one detail. In your third paragraph you write that FDR "confers with his the-Veep Henry A. Wallace..." Nope. He's conferring with his must trusted aide and advisor, Harry Hopkins. I'm not trying to be a pedantic pain, but this is important to me. I had not heard of Hopkins until I read this comic, which would have been the end of my Junior year in High School. The name and the personage stuck with me. Ten years later, in graduate school, I chose Hopkins as the subject of a research project in a history class. Because of All-Star Squadron. Thanks to Roy Thomas, I learned about a great and selfless American, whose entire career was spent doing all he could to help those who needed help. (During the war years, Hopkins had no official position, he stayed overnight at the White House one night and never left! FDR found him invaluable. He was the one FDR sent to England to initially meet with Churchill, and to the USSR to meet Stalin.) I later used that research project as a base for my "thesis" project to complete my degree. No disrespect to you or Henry Wallace! Harry Hopkins is my boy!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
