I am referring to herbie (FF), the Bat-critter whose name I forget (the more recent Batman cartoons), the pet monkey (Super Friends), etc., ad nauseum. I don't have too much pride to maintain my comic book addiction as an adult, but shows like this would have turned me off during my formative years. I wish they'ed bring back the OLD Spider-Man, Fantastic Four, The impossibles, Birdman, Johnny Quest lineup of yesteryear. -- --Bill Bill Buie Public (919)697-3024 Cornet 8-292-3024
