The Powerpuff Girls & “Superman” vs Mojo Jojo by John Byrne.
John was asked if it was true he did a commission of The Powerpuff Girls and this was his reply:
T’wasn’t a commission, t’was a pinup.
And an unfortunate illustration of just how f**ked up DC can be sometimes.
Hearing that I was a fan of the Powerpuff Girls, the editor of their book contacted me about doing a pinup. I said Sure! and suggested a scene of them dreaming about “realistic” versions of themselves teaming with Superman as the Professor read them a Superman comic as a bedtime story. This was approved, and drawn — and then the Higher Ups at DC got a look at it, and killed it, saying that the Powerpuff Girls office did not have the “rights” to use Superman.
Think about that.
The image was altered and saw print as the pin up seen above.

Tax Day! 100 Years of Form 1040:
Income Tax Form, 1913. Record Group 56, General Records of the Department of the Treasury
Ratified 100 years ago on February 3, 1913, the 16th Amendment established Congress’s right to impose a Federal income tax. In 1913, due to exemptions and deductions, less than 1 percent of the population paid income taxes. Tax rates began at 1 percent and rose to 6 percent on income over $500,000.
The first Internal Revenue Bureau Form 1040, as provided by Public Law 63-16, was approved October 3, 1913.
The 16th Amendment and the first Internal Revenue Bureau Form 1040, will be on display from April 1 to April 30 at the National Archives in Washington, DC.
(Did April 15th come too soon? Be thankful it’s not still March 15th!)
