I reread all four issues last night, and they were just as enjoyable as I remembered.

Craig Markley: Nathan, How long has it been since your last comission?  What was it?

I now have a total of three JB commissions. My first was FF Vs Super Skrull (not the one found in the gallery) -- My second was done in 2002 and CAN be found in the gallery... :)



...I hope to ask for another in a couple months. I have a pretty good idea what I'd like to get next!

Whoa, whoa whoa....we aren't going to play that around these
parts! Post a pic of that FF vs Super Skrull commission or
I'll....I'll....be disappointed?

There should definitely be a "No Bogarting the Commissions"
rule here at the JBF.

I had a scan... but I have no idea what happened to it :(

I *think* it might get printed in the Byrne Modern Masters book... I think... Can Eric answer that?

If it doesn't, I'll take a pic and post it. Deal? :)

What's the origin of the term 'bogarting'?

From wordorigins.org:

The selfish connotation comes from hogging a marijuana cigarette. Someone who kept the joint in their mouth, hanging from their lip like Bogey, would be bogarting the joint. Instead of bogarting, one should pass it on to another. The term can be used for hoarding items other than pot.

The term is first attested to in the song Don't Bogart Me, by Elliot Ingber and Larry Wagner, which appears on Fraternity Of Man's eponymous album, released 24 June 1968 by ABC Records. The song was featured the next year in the movie Easy Rider and is on that movie's soundtrack. (The song was later covered by the band Little Feat under the title Don't Bogart That Joint.)

Think I first heard it on Beavis and Butthead.

Drug slang from the '50s-'60s, referring to someone who, rather than
passing a joint on to the next person, would instead smoke the rest of it,
puffing on it like Humphrey Bogart with a cigar.

...What? I have a book on 20th century slang origins. (From Flappers To
Rappers
)

I am so totally jazzed about seeing DU with a tease that we may see them again in the future.  I loved this series.  I actually liked it more than Next Men.  (I know that thats blasphemy 'round these parts...)
