They appeared in the story, it says.<br /><br />They also appeared, hilariouisly, in the Reed & Sue Wedding Annual (can't recall- were they shown from the back only?), and in action in the What If the Bullpen had become the FF. Ditko was in, IIRC, a Spidey Annual.<br /><br />Then there was that annual Flash-multi-earth-crossover issue where, instead of crossing to E2, he went to the earth where he met the DC comics creators telling his stories. Giordano, maybe? I don't know of any other DC creators appearing in-story. Surely Julie Schwartz was in some comic!!<br /><br />So you see my suggestion, surely? Creators Crossover! Kirby vs Giordano.

Didn't just color the face, but flipped Reed L-R but not the (4) of course.

Our Anonymous friend above either has forgotten or isn't aware that next year's Arrowverse crossover is Crisis on Infinite Earths; still, he could be a Plot Complication, and I agree with Jay that the Legends would be a good group to have to deal with him. The Titans or the Doom Patrol might be possible as well, and keeping with Jay's basic story idea.<br /><br />As for today's cover, only the difference in Kirby's and Gibbons' drawing styles make this not look like a unit piece. In particular, nice recoloring job on Reed's face.<br /><br />The story puts me in mind of a story I read once where a villain (I think it was Hate-Monger) twisted Sue's mind to turn her into a leather-clad villain. That one stands out in my mind because Daredevil showed up to help, but his sonar only registered her as an "amorophous blob," a clue that revealed her identity to Reed. (And I have no doubt that someone will come along later today to tell me what issue that was, and fill in a bunch of other details!)Bob Greenwadehttp://lulu.com/spotlight/bobgreenwadenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6730409500376659257.post-18178385758866719422018-12-21T11:23:45.331-05:002018-12-21T11:23:45.331-05:00Long-time Eclipso fan here.
