Dig it, Groove-ophiles! Roy Thomas and Gene Colan (with inker Sam Grainger) brought us a doozy of a supernatural, super-hero parody in Not Brand Echh #13 (February 1969). Can ya believe..."Dr. Deranged vs. Deadpan!"? (And how 'bout that Spookter cameo?)

Black and White Wednesday: "Short Circuits" by Michael Uslan

Check it out, Groove-ophiles! Since we're a bit past April Fool's Day and nearing Friday the 13th, how about a kooky parody of DC's own Direct Currents called "Short Circuits"? Written by writer/producer Michael Uslan, "Short Circuits", for moi, offers more chuckles than groans. T'was published in The Amazing World of DC Comics #13 (cover dated November, but the indicia says October 1976). And what the hey, why not enjoy Sergio Aragones' cover for that wacky ish?

Ready or not, here it comes!
