So here we are a week after I announced this new column. I received some odd questions and some great questions. I have chosen the best of the best and now present those questions with answers I hope will do them justice. I’m also going to answer a question that has eluded fanpeeps since the 80’s. Questions this week involve hair, Superman, Alaska and G.I. Joes!
So without further ado here is the inaugural edition of my letters column column. That still has no name. More on that at the end of this week’s column.
Q: How do you get your hair so shiny and healthy?
A: Good question Gil buddy. The answer is simple. I don’t read Superman or as I like to call it Superman Gump. This in turn helps my brain not to rot. See the problem with Superman Gump Brain Rot is that it seeps into your hair and damages it causing split ends and general nastiness for your hairs.
On a side note I tried Superman again about a week ago. You’ll notice that is roughly when I shaved my head. (As seen here on 4 Color News and Brews. Yes, shameless plug!) It doesn’t take long for that book’s preaching to rot your brain and cause one to have to start over with the whole hair managing business. I figured it’d be easier to shave it off and start over instead of trying to fix the damage done.
Great question! Thanks for participating!
@JordanCJennings asks:
Q: With living in Alaska and all, did you have difficulty obtaining certain comic series?
A: Surprisingly, living in Alaska hasn’t really hindered my reading too much. Every once in awhile weather in Seattle stops the books from reaching here but those occasions seem to be rather few and far between.
An odd fact is here in Alaska when everyone else seems to have a day delay after holidays we still get comics on Wednesday. Not sure why or how that works but it does. I’d say for the last year to a year and a half we’ve been getting them on time while the rest of the U.S. waits till Thursday.
Didn’t know? Well now you know and knowing is half the battle!
@BrandonBurpee asks:
Q: What the fuck is the other half of the battle?
A: Ah, another excellent question. The answer is the other half consists of a myriad of things. It’s commonly misunderstood that the other half is one thing. It’s actually about 10 to 12 things depending on the day. Each of these things actual percentage of the other half changes based on the season, lunar calendar and how many Mark Millar books are coming out on time.
Those 10 to 12 things that comprise the other half of the battle are in no particular order are:
– Beef Jerky (The Tabasco Slim Jim stick kind. The size is irrelevant.)
– Bendis’ New Avengers
– Handy Manny Don’t let him fool you with his awkward cuteness. Look at all the tools he has. That guy is a saboteur.
– Alaskan IPA
– 4 8 15 16 23 42
– Jack Bauer
– The Easter Bunny
– Michael Vick’s supposedly reformed fighting dogs that in all actuality have been enlisted WE3 style by the U.S. Govt.
– Pliers
Then on some days the other 2 are:
– Fecal Matter
– Matt Meylikhov’s beard which is older than the crust on you’re Grandma’s you know what! Seriously that is the actual beard that belonged to Moses.
That’s all the questions for this week. Now the other thing I asked for was suggestions for a title for this bad mother. Below are the suggestions I received.
@ognightmix suggested: Baby Oil Boys Club
@mattisnotarobot suggested: Burping With Burpee! Or Burping At Burpee!
While I’m leaning toward the first one I would like to get a few more options thrown out there. If not though I’m totally going with the first. So let me know what you think out there in the Multiverse.
