I've already got (and love) the Legion Of Substitute Superheroes book, but I'd never even heard of the March Hair, even though that sounds right up my street. It might prove impossible to find, but it's certainly something to look for.<br /><br />And yeah, I have got that one issue of 52, because I really am that sad.Bob Temukahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09181473725170489213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5394310461939093453.post-53743478299848519522012-07-09T21:06:09.499+12:002012-07-09T21:06:09.499+12:00Bob, a couple of more titles you should try and tr...Bob, a couple of more titles you should try and track down if given the opportunity from the same period in Giffen's career:<br /><br />The first is The Legion Of Substitute Superheroes Special-- while it features a script from then current Legion of Superheroes writer Paul Levitz, it's very much in the style of Ambush Bug. After all, any comic that features a hero named Stone Boy whose super power is to turn into inanimate, er, stone, can't be bad.<br /><br />The second, and far far harder to find, is a one off black and white comic called the March Hair. This is written by Robert Loren Fleming and features the adventures of a hitman and how his life is hindered by a six foot tall invisible rabbit. It's essentially the film Harvey rewritten with the titular character being played by Bugs Bunny. And guns.<br /><br />Both don't quite reach the heights of Ambush Bug (a series, like you, I've managed to track down almost every Giffen related appearance of-- I presume you have the issue of 52 where the Bug joined the JLA?) but are well worth reading.Careyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04661184760209648937noreply@blogger.com
