Title: Superman Propaganda Comics Post by: Super Monkey on March 25, 2005, 05:27:59 PM The wackiest and most mind warping Crossovers ever!
As On-line comics! :P Superman - The Computers That Saved Metropolis... Starring The TRS-80 Computer Whiz Kids! Superman Meets The Quik Bunny! Superman Meets He-Man! Superman Vs. Muhammed Ali! and just for the heck of it... The Punisher Meets Archie! http://www.techknight.com/gallery/propaganda Title: Re: Superman Propaganda Comics Post by: ShinDangaioh on March 25, 2005, 07:50:46 PM They only have one of the TRS-80 kids. IIRC there were three
And they are missing the Supergirl seatbelt safety comic.(This one I have, but have no scanner) Don't know if it should be considered canon or not. Title: Re: Superman Propaganda Comics Post by: Super Monkey on March 25, 2005, 09:57:44 PM I still have an old Superman and Wonder Woman RadioShack comic with artwork by Curt Swan.
Title: Re: Superman Propaganda Comics Post by: dto on March 26, 2005, 03:26:52 AM I have three DC/Radio Shack TRS-80 comics -- one with Superman, another with Superman and Supergirl, and the third with Superman and Wonder Woman.
There were also two Seatbelt Safety Special giveaway comics produced for the American Honda Motor Corporation in cooperation with the US Department of Transportation. Both featured Supergirl -- one was apparently aimed at older kids, while the second was clearly geared for younger children. (Supergirl interacting with Mother Goose characters? Yes, that WAS a dream.) :wink: The interesting thing about these two comics is that along with the movie adaptation this is the only time DC depicted the original Kara Zor-El wearing the Helen Slater movie costume -- an outfit she never wore in regular DC continuity, though her "Crisis" costume was based on the original movie design. Furthermore, the second comic was published in 1986 -- after Supergirl was officially "dead and forgotten". :cry: Title: Re: Superman Propaganda Comics Post by: Admiral Chew on March 29, 2005, 01:04:36 PM I just love the internet. Someone's created an online bio for the TRS 80 Whiz Kids (including stats!)

It appears that there were at least 7! (3 as the "Tandy Computer Whiz Kids.") Though only three with Superman. There are covers for 7 of them here: http://www.strangecult.com/pisser/covers.html (http://www.strangecult.com/pisser/covers/whiz_trap.jpg)(http://www.strangecult.com/pisser/covers/whiz_fit.jpg)(http://www.strangecult.com/pisser/covers/whiz_super1.jpg)(http://www.strangecult.com/pisser/covers/whiz_super2.jpg) (http://www.strangecult.com/pisser/covers/whiz_fair.jpg)(http://www.strangecult.com/pisser/covers/whiz_recyc.jpg)(http://www.strangecult.com/pisser/covers/whiz_nodrugs.jpg) Title: Re: Superman Propaganda Comics Post by: Frostbite on April 11, 2005, 01:01:01 AM Whoever wrote that Quick comic has no respect for landmarks.
First the Weather Wizard knocks over the Washington Monument, then Superman takes apart an ancient Egyptian pyramid brick by brick.

In Italy I can find it easily, but at high price... But someday I'll have it. |
