This hits on all eight cylinders:

That belongs in the “Fake Things I Wish were Real” thread.

It’s really not all that far off from the 60s Batman show it’s parodying. So, wish granted?

One of the weird and interesting things about comics is that they deliberately avoid certain words in lettering because if the ink runs together you could get something risque. I’m told that they generally avoid the name “Clint” because the “L” and the “I” can run together, creating an unintended “U”. They must’ve held their beath every time they printed an issue of The Avengers featuring Hawkeye (Clint Barton).

I remember an Archie comic where someone said they were going to watch a flick…
