ArtsAugust 2010 • Views: 6,089

Tonight’s action-packed cover from the Lizard Collection: issue #2 of Jim Steranko’s Nick Fury, Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., published in July 1968 with the low-key title “So Shall Ye Reap Death!” Steranko wrote the script, drew the pencil artwork, and according to some sources did much of the inking as well.

There’s a synopsis of the story at the Marvel Comics Database.

The back cover is another classic: an advertisement for 132 Roman soldiers for only a buck ninety-eight. 2 Complete Roman Armies!

How dry is it?

Well, it's rather dusty. It's--I must admit, in the past year, because of its fame, it's been sort of taken out and shown more in the past year than in the previous 30 years. So it's begun to sort of exfoliate a little bit. It's starting to flake off just a tad. But it's sort of an off-yellow, dusty--the bottom, you know, appears to be a little, you know, perhaps moldy, but just a little bit of the bottom of it.

Today more than 40 prominent, diverse faith leaders and religion scholars in New York and across the country issued a statement calling the rhetoric of pundits like Palin and Gingrich exactly what it is -- an appeal to "xenophobia and religious bigotry." The statement, signed by leaders ranging from Simon Greer of Jewish Funds for Justice to National Council of Churches President Peg Chemberlin to Salam Al-Marayati, President of the Muslim Public Affairs Council, argues that Cordoba House opponents "would make a more lasting contribution to our nation if they stopped issuing inflammatory statements and instead helped inspire a civil dialogue between Christians, Jews and Muslims committed to a future guided by the principles of compassion, justice and peace." The entire statement and list if signatories, including numerous rabbis, is here.

Wow, guys. I think this one is legit. It's not just from some obscure prince, but directly from the "FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF NIGERIA"...

CENTRAL BANK OF NIGERIA.
FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF NIGERIA
(OFFICE OF THE EXECUTIVE GOVERNOR)
(CENTRAL BANK OF NIGERIA)

Our Ref: [REDACTED]
IMMEDIATE CONTRACT PAYMENT.CONTRACT #: [REDACTED]

Attn:

This is to inform you and the general public that the Central Bank of Nigeria (C.B.N) now has a new face and a new leader. I am the new Executive Governor of C.B.N. Mr. Lamido A. Sanusi. I am here to re-brand C.B.N and correct all the unprofessional and financial irregularities caused by the former governor of C.B.N Prof. Charles C. Soludo.

Breaking News! Prof. Charles C. Soludo has been arrested by the Economic & Financial Crime Commission (E.F.C.C) for destroying the lives of innocent people who called for the release of their contract payment and inheritance beneficiaries. He has scammed not less than 2 million people claiming to release their funds and was requesting for illegal fees such as delivery fee and documentation fees. Shortly after his interrogation with the men of the E.F.C.C, he will be charged to court and the law will take its cause.

As the new appointed Governor of C.B.N, my duties are to ensure that your payment gets to you. I have crosschecked the unattended files sent to my desk and the records of outstanding contractors due for payment, with the federal government of Nigeria shown that you have not received your funds. The amount recorded as your contract payment/ inheritance is $19.5 Million US Dollars and that has been corrected from what other offices told you.

I want you to know that your payment is valid and maintained with us here. I can not vividly explain how this payment was generated or occurred to you, but i was informed before I resumed my humble office in the month of June 2009 to pay the list of beneficiaries whose names are contained in this quarter payment schedule. As instruction from the presidency I cannot argue it coupled with the fact that the computer departments of the central bank was burnt down some months back before I resumed this humble office, and all available information as regards to your details that was dropped by the foreign contractor was omitted or partially missing as well.

I wish to inform you that your payment is being processed and will be released to you as soon as you respond to this letter. Also note that from my record in my file your outstanding contract payment is $19.5 million dollars (Nineteen million Five hundred thousand united states dollars). For your information, I don’t want anything that will dent my image and my mode of releasing your funds is based on the new policy based upon the Standard Banking Acts.

Before I proceed with your payment, I will re-check your information to be sure that I contacted the right person, therefore, forward the below information.

1. Your full name And Address
2. Telephone Mobil & Fax Numbers
3. Occupation and Age
4.A scanned copy of your drivers license passport or any identification document.

As soon as I receive the above information, I will email you the payment schedule and my mode of payment to enable us proceed immediately.

Mr.Sanusi Lamido
New Executive Governor
Central Bank of Nigeria.

Who knew I was secretly wealthy? I promise not to spend it all in one place.

Been there once. When the Kiddy porn popped up on the main page bailed and then did a purged on my HD. Never again.

The idiocy of Conservapedia is now getting international recognition. Today in the New Scientist:

E=mc2? Not on Conservapedia

It's a nice summary look at Conservapedia's stupidity wrt relativity.

re: #86 Slumbering Behemoth

Looks like Mr. Lamido A. Sanusi is not only a banker, but a Sharia scholar.

There are two underlying themes to Sanusi's position. First, Islam is concerned with delivering justice and should not be a tool for self-seeking political agendas. Second, the Wahhabist rhetoric of fundamentalists is counter to genuine Muslim interests. He explains that Sharia is not divine but merely religious, and is neither uniform nor unchanging.

Anyone know of this website?

[Link: blog.faithinpubliclife.org...]

Yes, I've heard of it. It is very moderate and flies under the radar due the the lack of flame throwing, IIRC.

You're looking for "cause célèbre" I think.

However, given the SoCon crowd, perhaps "celibate" might work too...

Sounds wonderful.
We're still 3 months away from anything approaching cool at any time of the day or night. About to die, here.

It's 64 degrees (f) up here right now... probably be in low 50's by morning.

Thanks. I knew what I wanted to say, but didn't know the proper spelling of the word and spell check didn't help.

I remember the times when you could buy two complete Roman armies for $1.98.

Of course, then along came Caesar and offered them four times that amount.

It fucked with one's Republic, let me tell you.

The back cover is another classic: an advertisement for 132 Roman soldiers for only a buck ninety-eight. 2 Complete Roman Armies!

Or you could pass on the Roman soldiers even though you wanted them badly because a buck ninety-eight was like 16 whole comics...
