Let’s see… coffee mugs, latte mugs, travel mugs… yep, that’s everything you need for college! (Found at Target earlier this week.)

Now I want to know how I compare!

Realistic Extra Income for the Average kelson
Really? Now I just have to know what income the average Kelson makes! More or less than the average Joe? And on what percentile do I fall? đŸ˜€
Arm Fall-Off Boy
Somehow I’d missed this one, though I’d seen people toss the name around (and assumed they were joking). But it seems that yes, the Legion of Super-Heroes did in fact once reject Arm Fall-Off Boy:
Legion of Super-Heroes in the 31st Century #16, out next week.
Swoop Warning
Well, that’s encouraging. I mean, nothing makes lunchtime better than worrying you might be about to star in a Hitchcock remake.
Sushi is your friend!
The restaurant, Ra Sushi, has quite good food. But don’t plan on holding any conversations over dinner, since they play loud, driving music with the bass turned up to 11.
Ignore This Sign
I don’t think that’s quite what they were trying to say…
The Vastness that is Central City
Central City is big. You just won’t believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it’s a long way down the road to the chemist’s, but that’s just peanuts to Central City. (With apologies to Douglas Adams.)
It’s an old post, but I just found the Absorbascon’s take on Central City, looking at the wide expanses depicted in Carmine Infantino’s Silver-Age drawings of the Flash’s hometown.
What is this vast complex? The National Science Center? NIH? STARLabs HQ? No. It’s Barry Allen’s back room. In his APARTMENT. In your house, this sort of room is barely big enough to hold the Cybex machine you don’t use. In a Central City apartment, it’s about the size of a bowling alley.
On a related, but more serious note, letterer Todd Klein has posted a 4-part study of the Flash Logo from 1940 through the present day: Part 1 · Part 2 · Part 3 · Part 4. With his insider knowledge, it’s far more thorough than the study I did a few years ago. (via Wallyoeste)
