Oh BROOKLYN!

I give you Dan Brooklyn Turpin, lady’s man.

It’s a mystery why he was single for so long, ain’t it folks?

(It should be noted that Dan was, indeed, married and technically speaking, the Dan is Brooklyn thing is a retcon, but I likes it).

    Granted that apparently that sledge is supposed to ber armored and all, but that solid non-transparent metal windshield whose only hole is occupied by a cannon seems a recipe for disaster…

    Unless of course, navigation is trusted to the “not so dumb” lady in the back who’s seeking the North Star while hugging a phalic symbol. :)

    I’m gonna pretend this woman is Maggie Sawyer’s grandma. It just makes things more fun.

    Is this a rare holiday excursion for Brooklyn to Central Park? And why’s he hanging out with a nun? Hey, is she with Brother Blood’s church? ;)

    And given the length of those prop blades, shouldn’t they be hitting the ground and shattering?

    Did they intentianally make the Nun say such a horrible pun?? (hey that rhymed) “I don’t have a canon!”….And if ya don’t know what a canon is for nuns…look it up.

    Strange, I don’t remember the streets of Brooklyn being filled with mute women. Must’ve been a forties thing. I’m thinking if wee Brooklyn Turpin ran his mouth like that today in his old stomping grounds, he’d be eating that goofy derby or the knuckle sandwich of a few “Brooklyn goils”.

    Today, heck. Even then.

    Is that snow or water they are skiing at?
    Dat indeed.

    Hmm, let’s take a look at that shell he has so casually held in the crook of his arm …

    Comparing it to the size of his head, it’s at least a 155mm shell. They weigh 100 lbs (shell only, not counting the propellant (“gunpowder”), which Dan The Genius seems to have forgotten to bring along.* Not the sort of thing you hold casually if you’re quite buff, much less as lithe as Dan.

    * But then, maybe he was just going to make IEDs out of them.

    Is it really a RETCON retcon? I thought Kirby established that himself at some point.
