He said that Neil Armstrong was the first American in space?

Over a year later and Pashmina is still waiting for someone to answer that question on the music trivia thread.

I prefer the one about trying to seduce a girl by taking her to the family fallout shelter.

I don't even know who Alison Goldfrapp is.
And, does Woody Allen know of your fallout shelter idea? He might steal for his own use after he gets you to sign his petition.

The one whose title was used for a highly-acclaimed DC comic, which itself was just an expansion of a story Steve Engelhart did in the 70s?

Yeah, I liked that one too.

I view it more as a melding of a story Englehardt did with one James Robinson did, but yeah, that one.

I like Brubek, too. He's an artist, a pioner.

I never thought of it that way, but I guess it kind of is "The Secret Origin of the Justice League" meets "The Golden Age"!

So far not many attempts on the actual question. I guess not many folks on this thread watch the show, or can even remember a time Batman mentioned a real-life person! And I don't mean the cute little throwaway mentions of a comic creator's name, like an address on the corner of Haney & Aparo, etc!

He said that FDR was elected five times.

--wyld (has run out of guesses)

You and me both. I'll guess he said Nixon won the Viatnam war or that Al Gore invented the internet.

I think there is now such a word -
it is "Mr_JTR"

OK, I'm declaring this one unanswered and opening the thread to anyone who wants to ask a question.

In the Batman: The Brave and the Bold episode "The Color of Revenge" (wherein Batman and an adult Robin battle Crazy Quilt), Batman states that the painter Henri Matisse switched from brush painting to paper cutouts because he went blind. This is not true.

Sorry, you're wrong.

Name 4 Justice Leaguers who left the League pre-Crisis/pre-Detriot JLA and the reasons for their leaving.

Martian Manhunter - to return to his people and find a new planet for them to live
Wonder Woman - lost her powers and became Emma Peel knockoff
Batman - difference of opinion over the League's role in international affairs and to found the Outsiders
Hawkman - his planet needed him (he returned eight issues later)
