Side effects…
So, how many of you are getting into the Olympics this year? I wasn’t all that much interested in them… until they actually started. Now, I can’t seem to stop watching them.
Also, I wanted to mention some stuff about Friday’s strip. Here is the significance things about the Wolverine movie poster… THIS poster (in case you missed it):
1) It IS a simplified version of the Wolverine mini-series written by Frank Miller years ago.
2) I did reverse the “cover” from the mini-series.
3) I also would have included his claws but ran out of space.
4) And th significance of “Return to Red Dawn”? Well, that was my nod to the early 80’s teen action flick, “Red Dawn”. In the movie, the kids that wage war against the invading Russian army adopted their high school mascot for the name of their “army” as there’s a famous part of the movie where C. Thomas Howel holds up an automatic weapon and yells “Wolveriiiiiines”!

Hey, I hear ya, Redhollywood…
Heck, I’m old enough that I actually saw the movie in the theater! I had a huge crush on Leigh Thompson back then. Do you remember who played her sister in the movie though? If you remember, I’ll be very impressed.
Here’s a big clue: There wasn’t any dirty dancing in “Red Dawn” but there could have been.
(Now, that’s a clue that should EASILY give the answer away).
