Thanks for these! They're awesome. At some point I thought I had read every Question comic that existed but I keep finding out about stuff like this. . .I totally want the story of Ted not returning Vic's phone calls.

I would advocate posting Silver Age GL in the future, because I never get tired of you making fun of Hal.

I really love the Charlton gang, so I was excited about this, but...yeah. Not worth reading, not for any of them. (And Vic does very little except run around after Ted and go "Beetle, must you make jokes at a time like this?" Yes, Vic, he must.)

That seems to be the consensus, so Hal it is!

Over here from the Boostle comm, and just wanted to note that Tiger's outfit is not only awesome and indeed not racist, but I think I've seen costumes like that during various musical performances. (No, seriously.)

Also there is much, much appreciation for the scans and the summaries, because I think my brain would have imploded if I'd actually tried to read this. (And I would have, had I known about it, because Ted.)

He may be a racist stereotype, but at least he's having a grand old time.

Oh, geeze. I'm glad I didn't get this. I was considering it during me Read Everything Ted Kord's Ever Been In phase, but the titles made it look really bad. Thank you for reading it so I didn't have to! At least Extreme Justice was kind of fun. This just looks terrible.

Didn't Ted help invent the evil robots? Like Jarvis couldn't have done it without him, kind of thing. It was a very Ditko origin.

Is this the same Peacemaker who showed up later in Jaime's run and was one of my favourite characters?

Ted definitely helped with the evil robots - I think canon is inconsistent on whether they were his designs or he was just a lab assistant.

Nope, different guy. This guy is much suckier. :(
