I still have them packed away somewhere along with my DC Comics puzzle books.Jamdinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09895066301153503489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15624230.post-59719257895673996302008-04-22T10:57:00.000-04:002008-04-22T10:57:00.000-04:00oh, man. I remember calling the DC Hot Line. I was...oh, man. I remember calling the DC Hot Line. I was so excited. I'm not sure why.
