07 - Man From Atlantis & The Human Fly

Not quire sure why I was so fascinated by this damn show. Perhaps because I was a big Aquaman fan at the time ot because my friend's say about the golden age of comics is true; That the golden age of comics is whatever you were reading, or in this case watching, when you were 8-10 years old. Naturally, as a fan of the shcw, I loved the comices and would love to pick up other covers by any artist or splashes and pages by the Great Frank Robbins. Also in the '70's I loved the Human Fly comic. A real stunt man dressed in a Super Hero costume, trying to one up Evil Kenevil. I saw the Human Fly perform in my hometown of Montreal when I as about 10 years old as he attempted to jump a record number of buses. This jump was the basis of for issue 11. To learn more about the Human Fly, including his ties to Montreal and why there was more then one guy behind the mask, check out the Esquire Mag article and footage from a proposed documentary. http://www.esquire.co.uk/culture/news/a5684/the-human-fly/ http://javiersblog.blogspot.com/2012/04/human-fly-movie.html http://silodrome.com/rick-rojatt-the-human-fly/
