    “You might feel a little prick… oh, you already have.”

    Interesting pose by Doc. It looks like he is escorting a little old lady across the street with his right arm while carrying her pet cheetah with his left, which explains the condition of his shirt.

  3. Michael Toland Says:

    Being a supervillain has apparently lost its allure for Khan up there. He looks pretty bored.

  4. Tat Wood Says:

    The Mongol Horde was led by Norman Beaton? Fi’ true?

  5. Bibliomancer Says:

    Doc needs his juice. Will do the Khan any favor to get it.

  6. Anna T. Says:

    Either the history books didn’t record that Genghis Khan was actually a giant statue who wielded syringes in battle, or someone’s been up to a little necromancy and statue animating.

    Oh dear.

  7. B. Chiclitz Says:

    The story of how Doc “The Bronzeman” Savage hooked up with Genghis “The Needle” Khan to develop the world’s first injectable tanning solution.

  8. A.R.Yngve Says:

    I posted a version of the disco song “Djingis Khan” – but then decided that this was too silly even for Good Show Sir, and deleted it…

    Now how about those text fonts?

  9. A.R.Yngve Says:

    “Der Bronzemann” does NOT sound family-friendly. I don’t know what it is, and I don’t want to know.

  10. Tag Wizard Says:

    @A.R. – Not to worry. I’m sure our GSS comedy quality filter would have flagged you disco parody before it could post.

  11. THX 1139 Says:

    @ARY: Doc Savage, Man of Bronze. Simple as that. It would be his Twitter handle if he was still around.

  12. Bruce A Munro Says:

    @Michael Toland: he’s not bored, just very mellow.

    The Doc looks rather uncomfortable: perhaps that growth hormone isn’t working out for him?

    “Too…many…muscles! Increasingly…difficult…to run!”

  13. GSS ex-noob Says:

    Doc looks like he should be saying “herp derp, dum de dum” as he marches along swinging his arms. And he’s got way too much muscle development in his neck — I don’t think he can bend it. No growth in his head, though. And shouldn’t he be “der Mann aus Bronze”, or wouldn’t that fit on the book?

    I think Khan is The Man of Copper (Oxidized).
    His fingernail looks manicured, and he’s holding the syringe like a cigarette.

    Quiz time!

    Genghis looks:

    a) not Mongol
    b) bored
    c) anachronistically tech’ed
    d) all of the above

    Does the translation refer to his:

    1) whip
    2) curse
    3) blight
    4) hat tassel
    5) flagellum
    6) all of the above

  14. A.R.Yngve Says:

    The explosive book that blew the lid off the conspiracy to cover up Charles Bronson’s drug problem!

  15. GSS ex-noob Says:

    Looks more like Bronson was a pusher than a user, if this cover is to be believed. Steroids to pump up young actors.

    How is it that no one has said …
    KHAAAAAAAAAN!

  17. Leak Says:

    @Tor Mented: KHAAAAAAN’t be arsed…
