Ask Away

As most of you Second Printers know I like bringing a little bit of my life into this blog. I talk about my apartment, about my love for the Cubs (well, I did on Those Wednesdays), heck I have even brought you into my bathroom. Other writers here have done the same, look at Jon Carey who put his girlfriend and her confusion over both Final Crisis and Secret Invasion up for some of the best posts I think have been put up here. I mean they were funny and they had just that right spark of our non-comic worlds to bring us all closer together but were enough about comics to be pertinent.

So we all got together and decided as a way to celebrate passing our five month mark (yesterday, excellent, excellent) we would hold a little quiz. But not quizzing us - oh no. Instead, some of us, or should I say our significant others, have offered to take a quiz on comic knowledge. But that is not it, oh no. Also taking the quiz is Devon's nephew! So we will have a sort of “How much nerdiness have you learned through osmosis” mixed with “Are you smarter than a third grader.” It’s going to be awesome because, while I love my wife and she once spent an evening letting me tell her what each of the color squares on a Heroclix dial meant, I am banking on the kid.

So here is where you come in loyal Second Printers. You get to come up with the questions. Now a word of caution, these are non-comic readers and a child so no “Who did Spider-Man punch in issue #173.” That won’t lead to funny nor correct answers. However, I found it amusing when I asked my wife what color Dr. Doom’s cape was and she said, “Purple,” but I am kind of a nerd like that. We’re talking basic info here. We’ll spend a couple days taking questions. Then we’ll get to quizzing and put the answers up.

SO ASK AWAY.

WHAT PIECE OF COMIC TRIVIA DO YOU THINK EVERYONE KNOWS OR SHOULD KNOW?
