Today's Easter Egg comes from Brian Cronin's Comic Book Legends Revealed over at Comics Should Be Good. It's too cool not to share with you right away!
"It was a dark and stormy night," was the opening line for Snoopy's Great American Novel in Charles Schulz's Peanuts. It's been repeated often, and is now a classic line. However, some readers may not know that Snoopy actually finished his novel. Here it is, in entirety:
Well, in 1981's Detective Comics #500, Len Wein and Walt Simonson produced a 2-page Batman story called "Once upon a time..." in which all the words were in captions, with not a word of dialogue. The captions all came from Snoopy's novel!
How cool is that? Thanks to Brian Cronin for the information and images!
