I;ve never seen Neal Adams before. He looks so much like a normal middle aged guy... I always figured he'd look like a Neal Adams drawing, really thin and wiry, and somehow constantly in the rain. ;)

That was great! Must watch the other parts. A really interesting documentary. Actually, could I ask you comic book fans out there a favour? I'm a UK writer, and I've written a novel about teenage superheroes. It's called A Class Apart and is part of a series called Class Heroes. Perhaps you could check it out? There's a trailer for it on my YouTube channel, and a link to the book website where you'll find preview chapters and other stuff - so you can gauage whether it's any good or not.Cheers.
