That's an odd way to measure time. This piece was not published. It could have been not published in 1989, or it could have been not published in 2016. Or any year in between. Not having been submitted makes it impossible to date when it was not published.

I wish you had done more humor work JB, because you are clearly quite good at it.

I would love to see you take a crack at doing a SIMPSONS comic one day.

Speaking of JB doing humor comics, back in the late 80's my ex-girlfriend collected Disney comics and I was pleasantly surprised when she pointed out one of her Mickey Mouse comics was sporting a John Byrne cover.

Mickey was completely redrawn on that cover.

I quite agree. Thinking about the "well, *I* am offended!" internet climate that predominates today, though, ...good grief!

Right. A good 90% of the Big Bad Byrne stories floating around out there are directly a result of Internet Crusaders who turn of their senses of humor before clicking into the 'Web.

To a small extent, I blame myself. I refused from the start to pepper my posts with ;-) and :-) and <g> and the like. I assumed people would get my meaning from context.

Silly me. The internet is where Context goes to die.

That's disappointing to hear.

Well, that stinks. I don't see the point of having you do a cover and then having another artist completely redraw Mickey.

It was likely an editorial decision back in the day, much like when Superman and Jimmy Olsen's faces were redrawn when Jack Kirby was on the Jimmy Olsen comic book (or when Superman showed up in other Kirby titles such as the Forever People).  In any case, with Mickey, only JB knows for sure, and if he's not telling, I'm certainly not asking!
