Ron El's Comic Book Trivia (Volume 13)

Traditionally, the number thirteen has received a bad rap. It is seen as unlucky in many cultures, and even building architects exclude it when numbering floors (like anyone really believes there is a fourteenth floor immediately after the twelfth). Yet this ignores all the positive and necessary uses for thirteen - for example, how could we ever have a Baker's Dozen without it?This is true with comic books, as well. Where issue twelve is often seen as a milestone, issue thirteen in a series is just as often a new beginning for the heroes and the story, setting a new creative direction. And comics represent nothing if not being creative!So as we arrive at this thirteenth volume of absolutely essential history and lore of our favorite medium, instead of seeing it in a bad light, let us all revel instead on all the fun contained inside!Rejoice, comic aficionados: 13 is here!
