5. R: Name a comic based on a toy-license that lasted for 12 issues or more

Look at all those toys!

@ Tracer Bullet for picking a lady.

reverie gets the "Check out the big brain on Brad!" award for the clever unique answer of Secret Wars.

"Duh, stay out of Riverdale!"

This one and the next were total guesses.

orangecrush gets the booby prize for Garbage Pail Kids. I can find no indication that there was ever a Garbage Pail Kids comic, let alone one that lasted for 12 issues or more. Unless someone can show me some evidence of a GPK comic, I will count this as wrong.

Do you know what is truly outrageous? The fact that, as far as I can tell, there was never a Jem comic book. Sorry Bus.

Come on, people! On a Reverse Sheep question like this one, you always want to go obscure.

Except when you don't. G.I. Joe and Transformers were both unique. Well played, fumanstan and Nick Danger, respectively.

Did you know Garbage Pail Kids was created by Art Spiegelman?

JasonF, you are wrong.

On the other hand, if you picked some obscure toy from the 70s thinking that nobody else would remember it was a toy for about 15 minutes before it became a long-running Marvel comic ... well, you got 4 points

It lasted a little over a year.

I don't think he created the concept, though I did know that he worked on the first few series.

I think the better question is why all you dudes picked Jughead over Betty or Veronica. When you think Archie, "Jughead" is not the first two names that come to anyone's mind.

This link says that there was no Jem comic book (notwithstanding the fact that Marvel owned a piece of the character). Bus, do you have a link that provides a little more information about that omnibus cover?

Sheep answers would split between the women, who are equally fetching.

While we're waiting for Bus to counter my link with a link of his own, here are some more uniques:


dadaluholla says "Thundercats, ho!"


fujishig says "Shogun Warriors, ho!"

Somebody send this link to Don Markstein! Toonpedia has failed me!

On the basis of this evidence, Jem will be counted as correct. Now the real question: How did the Bus know that there was a Jem comic published in Britain and Germany for 12 issues?

Back to the results:

Did you know that M.A.S.K. and the Care Bears are equally popular in this forum? It's true. Meatwad's Ghost and hitman tommy get 2 points each for M.A.S.K. and brianluvdvd and Mboyd get 2 points each for the Care Bears.

Care Bear stare!

"By the power of Greyskull, I have 2 points!"

I don't like where this is going.

If you said "R: Name a comic bear" I would've named Bussi Bear.



If you said "R: Name a comic dog" I would've named Idefix.



etc.
