Tonight, True Believers!

The Mighty House of Marvel
will triumph once and for all
over the Dilapidated Domain of DC Comics.

Believe it, Fearless Front-Facer!

As sure as Blackbolt's little doggy
has a tuning fork on its massive head ...

As sure as Ben Grimm's Aunt Petunia
could whomp the snotty bejesus out of the Yancey Street Gang ...

Your Austin Chronicle Listings Editor (Wayne Alan Brenner)
will vanquish his (admittedly quite formidable) foe,
Chronicle Arts Editor Robert Faires,
in the Debate of the Century ––

RESOLVED: MARVEL IS BETTER THAN DC

–– at the Dionysium at the Alamo Drafthouse South Lamar.

There's also Graham Reynolds with a history of
comics in 10 comics. And a sneak peek of the new
Intergalactic Nemesis. And a DC insider dishing
about the ins & outs of the superhero industry.
And so much more.

But the main event's about DC getting clobbered!
YES! YES! YES!

You think otherwise?
You suspect a contrary conclusion?
You reckon ol' Faires and his DC dunderheads
might stand a chance against Brenner and the entire Marvel universe?

Think again, fanboy.

This night ... this night of all nights ...
for the acolytes of the Justice League and the Teen Titans
and the Birds of Prey and even the Inferior Five ...
this will be a night that will live in infamy.

FIN FANG FOOM, baby!
Comin' at you like a spider monkey!

(Yes, a big, green transcelestial spider monkey with purple shorts ... but still.)

EXCELSIOR!
