    Ah, that’s why I don’t remember the Grifter, I’d moved onto cars by then (yes, I know I’m old 😁)

    I’m sure my treasured purple Chopper was a Christmas present in 1972, a Mk 2, I think.

    Thanks for the information @The Red Kind takes me back, excellent stuff!

    Yeah, well, sometimes nothin' can be a real cool hand.

    I was due back home mid-August but I’ve extended my holiday here in the UK - I still have several friends to look up, but I do have some spare time now, so am resuming this thread and look and see what I’ve missed over the past three months on AJB.

    Just when you thought it couldn’t get any weirder 👀

    Not to mention scary. That last part sounds ridiculous at first, then you start to wonder if things like that really happen.

    Yeah, well, sometimes nothin' can be a real cool hand.
  • BarbelBarbel ScotlandPosts: 41,925Chief of Staff

    The atmosphere is what makes this deviation work so well.

    And the birds part was alternately funny and frightening.

  • Sir MilesSir Miles The Wrong Side Of The WardrobePosts: 30,946Chief of Staff

    This is really entertaining and enjoyable in a “just how far fetched is this?” way 😳😁

    THE DEPARTMENT OF TRUTH - Deviation 3 Part 3 The Other Side Of The Screen (Part 2) - Part 2/3



    To be concluded…and some BIG, BIG NEWS!

    Yeah, well, sometimes nothin' can be a real cool hand.
  • BarbelBarbel ScotlandPosts: 41,925Chief of Staff

    The first part, with the stairs and the car and the glass, felt exactly like a movie or perhaps a movie storyboard. Am I silly to say my pulse went a little faster? Seriously, I have no idea what happens next with this entire series and that's a good thing.

  • CoolHandBondCoolHandBond Mactan IslandPosts: 9,392MI6 Agent

    Not at all, I had the same opinion, it was very filmic. What happens next? A taster will whet the appetite tomorrow.

    Yeah, well, sometimes nothin' can be a real cool hand.
  • Sir MilesSir Miles The Wrong Side Of The WardrobePosts: 30,946Chief of Staff

    I hope the BIG, BIG NEWS is that this will run and run 😮

    THE DEPARTMENT OF TRUTH - Deviation 3 Part 3 The Other Side Of The Screen (Part 2) - Part 3/3


    Well, that was rather good, I must say.

    Onto the bonus…

    Sir Miles, your wish for the BIG, BIG NEWS is granted - for a further confirmed 3 issues at least - where we return to the Cole Turner story arc. But that is not the only BIG, BIG NEWS, for during the next 3 issues we also get a side story which will go down very well with certain AJB’ers!


    Yeah, well, sometimes nothin' can be a real cool hand.
  • BarbelBarbel ScotlandPosts: 41,925Chief of Staff

    You said above that this was a conclusion, CHB; I suggest that in this sort of tale nothing is a conclusion and we'll perhaps be hearing more.

    Glad to see Cole will be back, he's my favourite character, and I also suspect that I know who will be very pleased with an Elvis story. 😁

  • Sir MilesSir Miles The Wrong Side Of The WardrobePosts: 30,946Chief of Staff

    I’m SO glad this is to continue…it’s a brilliant piece of storytelling, or is it? 😳

    YNWA 97
  • CoolHandBondCoolHandBond Mactan IslandPosts: 9,392MI6 Agent

    That was more of my bad English, Barbel, I meant to say conclusion of the Deviant 3 arc. There are three more issues planned as I’ve noted above and hopefully lots more after that.

    I get the same feeling as you sometimes, Sir Miles, is this actually fiction?

    Yeah, well, sometimes nothin' can be a real cool hand.
  • BarbelBarbel ScotlandPosts: 41,925Chief of Staff

    I'm glad to hear that!

  • CoolHandBondCoolHandBond Mactan IslandPosts: 9,392MI6 Agent

    Anyway, while we’re waiting for the next DoT to land let’s get back to our potted history of Batman.

    DETECTIVE COMICS #356 June 1966 - Inside Story Of The Outsider - Part 1/2 - In which we find out who The Outsider really is.



    To be continued…

    Yeah, well, sometimes nothin' can be a real cool hand.
  • BarbelBarbel ScotlandPosts: 41,925Chief of Staff

    A pleasure to see Batman again after a pause. 👍
