Yeah; he's probably going through his comics on CD-Rom to find a good one.
Speaking of old comics...
Are you interested in the new "Captain America Comics 70th Anniversary" comic? James Robinson wrote it and it includes a Simon & Kirby tale as well, I believe. I haven't seen it, but I am curious about it. And it is Steve Rogers as the true Captain America.

I haven't heard about it until now. I liked Robinson's work on Starman; haven't read anything by him since then (I know he started doing some DC books after I gave up on new comics). There are some characters I like reading about almost regardless of the writer (although even they can suffer dismal writing, as the last 9 years or so of Iron Man proves), and there are some characters I only like if I like the writing; Cap is one of those. And he's had some great writers over the years, like Thomas, Englehart, Stern, Gruenwald, and Waid. Eh; if I get the chance to check it out, I might do so.
And then there are characters I won't read no matter who's writing them. That would include Lobo and just about anyone created in the 1990s.
Sorry for the delay guys!
Ok, in addition to the Mole Man, who has seen clix form twice now (plus an awesome Rupert LE) there was another similar Subterranean super-foe who appeared on numerous occasions to harass various heroes.
1. What is his name?
2. What is his origin?
3. What was some key differences between his followers and Ruperts?
And why in the world haven't you made me a custom of him yet Dale????

O.K. Something I know a little about. Do you mean Tyrannus; Mole Mans rival for Kala. He was a Roman ruler who drank from the Fountain of Youth and was banished to Subterania by Merlin. As to differances in his followers not sure. Unless it's a trick question and there is no differance. Kor is another possibility but I know less about him.

It's not a trick question, and you are right on questions #1 and #2.
You'll have to go back a ways to get a good sense of the difference

Well I'd have to look the 3rd part up so I'm out. Just thought I'd add that Age of the Sentry helped jog my memory on this question. See the Sentry is good for something

The Sentry perpetuates the stereotype that Silver Age comics were poorly drawn and all "camp," neither of which is true.
Looking over comics of the past 50 years I've come to believe that the best period for creativity (character creation and development as well as art) was the early Silver Age of Marvel! I just can't decide what the best year for comics all-time was, but I'm leaning toward 1965!
The Sentry makes fun of that period, yet it is produced by a bunch of folks who owe everything to that period and have done precious little that can compare in terms of creativity.
Plus a comic cost 12 cents. You could pick up 8 comics for under a dollar! If minimum wage was $1 an hour you got 8 books for that! Most of them would be pretty good to excellent. Now if minimum wage is $8 an hour you can get what, 2 books for that? And are they worth it?
OK, rant is over. Back to subteranean slaves and the differences thereof

I'm pretty sure the only major difference is that Moley's followers had the bug-eyes. I could be wrong about that, though.

Disagree. Age of the Sentry was very well written. A kind of what if the DC Silver Age crossed with Marvels. Art was Great. Reply to rant over
