Back in the late 1980's it was a dark-ish time for the old school superhero fan (well, this one at least), a significant number of characters I liked had either been reimagined to unrecognisability, shot dead and the "dark antihero" was on the rise, a school of character I rarely like.

But every now and again, there were glimmers of hope (again, for me at least), a couple of everyman heroes (for a fairly white, straight, male value of "every" I grant you)

Marvel gave me Quasar, which I've posted in the past, and in 1988 DC gave me a new use of an old name, with Roger Stern and Tom Lyle creating a new spin on....

Going against the tendency of superhero assholes who wallow in macho posturing and behave like abrasive, shallow pricks, I'm posting a scene from gentler times, when superheroes were cordial, easy-going and seemed like cool people to hang around with:

All right, let's get straight to it! Vampire!Talia and aliens seemed to be the most popular, and I'm also including Zombie Nazis, because well, they're Zombie Nazis. Can't go too wrong with that.

Intro can be found here or four posts down.

( There used to be a grey tower alone on the sea... )

( The Martians are coming! )

( They're not just Zombie Nazis, they're Zombie *voodoo* Nazis! )

( Epilogue )

And that's that for "DUEL". Thoughts? Comments?

In part 4 of 4, Tim Clyde and Shiva infiltrate Dorrance's tower and do battle with the King Snake himself.

(parts 1, 2, and 3 here)
( seven pages from issue #5 )

In part 3 of 4 Tim finally arrives in Hong Kong, gets some vague sexual promise/threat from Shiva, and is terribly disappointed with Clyde (parts 1 and 2 here).

( seven pages from issue #4 )

In part 1 Tim travelled to Paris to study with the Rahul Lama, met a girl called Ling, and ended up rescuing Clyde Rawlins from Ling's gang, the Ghost Dragons.

( four pages from #2, six from #3 )

Since Tim will be travelling to Hong Kong again in the next issue of Red Robin, I thought it might be nice to post an old story that also took place there. This is from one of Tim's early Robin miniseries, before the title became an ongoing. Although the story ends with Tim preventing an outbreak of bubonic plague in Hong Kong, the first issue is set in France.

( five pages from #1, one from #2 )

Someone said they had a hard time reading the Super Steph scans, so here's the bigger scans my french contributer Levrai posted on the wiki- containing Steph and her epic brick hitting origin. They're super big, and this is not to be snarky- that's just how they are.

( Steph never let anyone push her around, especially batdudes. )

Last week on his blog, Marv Wolfman wrote, "I wanted to remind everyone that Vigilante #6 is on sale next Wednesday. Vig 6 is the final part of the Deathtrap crossover with the Titans, and I can promise you it will have a very controversial ending. When the guys at DC told me what they had planned, even my gasted was flabbered. The ending is shocking, yes, but it's also a logical one and will be built on in the future."

Hey al! It's the return of the Super Steph ~~Upload~~ Series. When I first joined s_d, after inundating with (very poor) TTG scans, I inundated it with Steph scans. Those were good times, there was lots of Steph discussion, and I even got a few people to check out stuff with her in it and like her! (Or so I was told!)

Anyway, a total of two people responded yes to my question of if I should repost it, but I'll give it a shot anyway. This time, it will all be in chronilogical order, and I'll include some scans from other stuff besides Robin, to get the site's archive goin' good.

We start with Steph's first appearance

( Spoiler hitting people with bricks behind the cut! )

Probably going to have the obvious answer of "No", but I thought I'd ask;( Batman, Robin and the Joker commissions )
