Has Marvel changed DD's origin or is it still the truck, old man, radioactive
isotope story?
••
Frank added a whole lot of stuff, downplaying the "radiation origin". In his
version -- still canon? -- most of DD's "stuff" comes from a kind of Zen
training
**
It's still canon. The only change was the backstory of the old man he saved.

didn't Miller had DD look "-- into the heart of a man made sun..."
So, was it bright irradiated light or radioactive sludge (as in the statue) that blinded Matt Murdock?

Gerry that Conan fron Hard Hero is a great Buscema likeness!
That pose is from a Conan issue but without hitting the longbox, I'm not sure of the number. High 60's?
Conan Belit and Zula standing together swords at the ready.
Great pic.

Looking through boxes searching for my customized figures to add to the other thread I came across this SPACE GHOST figure. One of my favourites. Great likeness and the head is ball-jointed for maximum posability.
He came with all kinds of accessories but I didn't bother digging Them out.

…the head is ball-jointed for maximum posability…
••
One thing I have noticed over the years, it takes only the slightest turn of
the head to give a real sense of life to a figure.

'Wonder if I could use this as an appeal to get my kid to 'repose' some of his figure...so we can dust? I'd settle for this bookcase and its twin being done.
