Superhero Easter Eggs in Romance Comics

[Lone Ranger]

Over at Sequential Crush (http://sequentialcrush.blogspot.com/2009/05/i-spy-with-my-little-eye.html) (a brand new blog focusing on romance comics), Jacque has found a woman wearing a Green Lantern ring in a Mike Sekowsky drawn story.

I love it!

I'm wondering if anyone has ever notice any other superhero easter eggs in either Marvel or DC romance books. I know Sekowsky had a particularly good sense of humor - but perhaps the likes of Colan or Buscema had a little fun as well.

Thanks for the link, Scott. I'm a big fan of romance comics.

Thanks for sharing this on here, Scott! I hope to find more hidden gems and I will be sure to share them on my blog. I just have a feeling there are a ton out there just waiting to be uncovered!

Thank you for the warm welcome! Yes, I am one of Martin's granddaughters. His love of comic books definitely rubbed off on me! :smile:

Wow! That's amazing.

I'm certain that his passing was noted here at the time - but I imagine the thread has been deleted. He was a very talented artist - you could tell that he received a true art/illustration education before entering the field.

I hope you stick around here as we have some interesting discussions regarding all sort of old funnybooks - including romance comics (although a few people are still ashamed to admit that they like them!)

Thank you for your kind words! Yes, I do remember there being a nice thing about him here on the forums. :smile:

I am glad to get involved here on the forums. Lots of interesting discussions going on, I can tell!
