Great Moments in Comics History: Superman Annual #11

 

Pre-Crisis Jason Todd meets Wonder Woman for the first time.

Comments

  1. Bruce and Jason’s facial expressions in the 6th panel completely make this.

  2. Why is Wonder Woman carrying a beach ball? Is this the annual Fourth of July pool party at the Fortress of Solitude? If so, why would they pick that location? And surely Clark has his own beach balls inside. So many questions.

  3. Is it just me or does Bruce have an I-tapped-that look on his final panel?!?!

  4. @WheelHands  dude, it’s from the Alan Moore story What Ever Happend to teh Man of Tomorrow?

    Everyone knows Wonder Woman, Batman and Robin were going to teh fortess of solitude to give superman lame presents for his birthday in that issue

  5. @edward
    Correction, it’s actually the Alan Moore story For The Man Who Has Everything.

  6. @edward: Oh yeah! I haven’t read that in years but I remember that now. Well now I feel like a noob. I forget, did she get Clark a beach ball?  

  7. Nice

  8. This was a sweet Justice League episode

  9. This was sweet Dave Gibbons art!

  10. I just noticed the date stamp…Clark is  a leap year baby? That explains why he is only in his 30’s still! 

  11. Actually, Superman’s a leap year baby. Clark celebrates on May 1. 🙂

  12. Bats is soooo not thinking clean thoughts. This has just convinced me to pick up the hardcover of What Ever Happend to the Man of Tomorrow?

  13. In the words of Jeremey Clarkson, “Pre-Crisis Jason Todd just had a crisis.”

  14. @Hornhead  This page isn’t from that story. You’d do better to pick up DC Universe: The Stories of Alan Moore to read the rest of this particular story. It’s pretty good and half of it is a solid Elseworlds-seque story.

  15. @Hornhead  Oops. Just noticed that this story is indeed included in the deluxe edition of Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow. My mistake.

  16. Batman is most definitely NOT thinking clean thoughts there.

  17. Flash forward some years- Jason Todd finds Wonder Woman at a bar in the city and….

  18. @Smutty  ah, of couirse

  19. @WarrenPeace  Spot ON!
    that top panel looks like she’s carrying a Keg to the fortress!!

  20. If i ever meet Wonder Woman, i really hope the first thing she says to me is NOT “You look so much like Dick”

  21. Does Batman use the word chum anymore or did he give that up for Lent? 

  22. I believe she gave him a perfect replica of Kandor. And yeah @WarrenPeace, he totally has that look.
