Hi Becky & Bubblegum Boppers!

Funny you shoumd pick that Superman track to start the show. Just yesterday, I picked up a special Comic Book Day edition of MAD Magazine with Supes on the cover which was one of many of Kerry Callen's hilarious takes on the DC universe. In fact, practically half of the comic-sized issue features his work. (But I'd already seen most of what they printed on his own blog.)
