Shirts
Thanks to the inimitable Doc Shaner for doing all the work for us on this glorious Thanksgiving week.
Chris is in Texas and I am still somewhere in France, land of hundred dollar turkeys, making strip production sort of difficult. Thanks for hanging with us and happy T-Giving, homeboys and homeladies.

I like the little touches, like the Green Lantern and Mjolnir. Good job, Doc Shaner!

Question – does the un-powered Chris turn into Frog Thor by yelling “Shazam”, or does Chris revert to his original, depowered state of Frog Thor by yelling “Shazam”?
HOLY CRAP, WHY HAVE I ADDED LAYERS OF UNNECESSARY COMPLEXITY TO A SIMPLE JOKE

Brian, let’s try to turn this into LBFA’s running nerdfight. My stance is that our Chris is the one wearing the lightning bolt, so he is clearly the Shazamified version of Throg or Fror or whatever it is the little green guy is called. Being Chris Haley is a superheroes idea of downtime. That, or Chris is superhero squared.

Evan Shaner is frigging amazing.

Mr. Priddy, I must disagree. Throg has a cape, and as we all know, the Power of Shazam gives capes. It does not remove them.

I like Joel’s explanation. Also, congrats on the book, Joel. Got a FB invite to the signing, but I’m in Korea :/ Maybe I can have it shipped?

Woah there, Max! The Power of Shazam does not “give capes.” Mighty/Black Adam didn’t have a cape until he wanted one. And Billy can turn into Cap wearing a spacesuit or a lumberjack outfit, neither of which have capes. The Lightning Bolt symbol isn’t even a constant.
Therefore, we have to go by powers at all. Chris goes from his measly “power of art” to having all the powers of a frog-zed Thunder-god. Chris says Shazam to become FrogThor. QED
(Please realize this was an ironic nerd rant.)

Sorry, Mrs. Curt’s Mom. We didn’t mean for it to go this far.
Even if those who believe in Captain-Marvel-Chris and the mighty power of his art are right, and those HEATHENS who believe in the almighty Frog-Thor-Chris are irrevocably wrong… it wasn’t supposed to go this far. Honest.
HEATHENS!

If he could shout “SHABBA” instead and turn into Shabba Ranks…well, that would be perhaps TOO awesome
