Somehow I guessed Rann would be the one to finally get #66. And a personal thank you to him so I can quit blowing all my free time trying to figure it out.

I have to second that one. Now I can move on from that question. I must have spent 20 hours looking for the answer. Great job, Rann!

I have a question. Are we generally allowed to research the answers to these? I had been going with stuff I knew thus far and only researching this one that had been around a while.

That's what I've been doing, that is answering an available question that I know the answer to with the occassional looking for confirmation on spellings or just making sure it's the right answer if I'm not 100%. After which I'll dig around the net for any really tough ones.

Ha! Thanks & you're welcome!

I know what you mean. This question had been preying on my mind...or what's left of it.

I was never a huge Batman fan...but after that World's Finest clue I was able to refer to a TPB to find this obscure, one-off villain.

I stumbled across Rob Callender recently, in the tenth Batman Chronicles trade (he's from World's Finest 11). Cool villain, IMHO. =)

And I don’t care at all if anyone researches answers (I couldn’t stop anyone from doing it even if I did). :b

87) Phantasm from Mask of the Phantasm

And here's were the not checking the internet comes in, because I know what line the character in 86 is from but looking it up to figure out his name would be cheating in my book Smile

I have a strong suspicion as to the line as well, but I'll just confirm my suspicions if I actually think I know something. I was thinking of the wrong name initially on Crank for that last one(Courge, which is sticking an r into the name of his Destructor counterpart), but given that I have most of him less than 8 ft away from me at the moment, I don't feel too guilty.

IMHO you'll either love or hate BSG's ending, Sentinel. Try to avoid all spoilers, if you don't already know how it ends.

And I can't wait to watch more Sherlock - I might be able to start season two this week. =D
