I went with Batroc because even after 45 years, he's the guy I think about when I think Cap Villains.

Me too, for some reason. Batroc's one of those characters that once seen can never be forgotten.

Plus he's not just another tiresome Nazi. Nazis have long been the biggest cliche villain there is. A crazy criminal acrobat with a funny French accent? That's one-of-a-kind right there!

One of the first comic book supervillains I ever saw. I got in trouble for talking about him at the dinner table. I was a kid and too young and enthusiastic about comic books to realize that Nazi vampires aren't appropriate dinner table conversation subjects.

It's weird how old comics can trigger childhood memories. Even macabre characters like Morbius or Blade make me feel nostalgic. I'm not sure I ever got into trouble over them, though. Nazi Vampires are probably one of those things that could upset people, I suppose.

I was reading an Adventure Into Fear with Morbius comic in school circa 1975, which my 5th-grade teacher
took away from me (luckily only temporarily), and I was informed that I was not to read comic books in class
EVEN IF I WAS ALREADY DONE WITH THE CURRENT ASSIGNMENT.

My teacher (Miss Kathy Knapp) did agree, though, to let me write and draw my own comics during such periods,
stories which (if liked them) she occasionally posted or read to the whole class.

At least she encouraged your creativity...but you should've been allowed to read classic literature in class, IMO.

Heh. After the first four or five stories, she got to assuming that all of my stories would be appropriate reading-
to-the-class material, so she stopped reading them beforehand. She stopped reading all of my stories after I
summited the one where a young boy's dog gets hit by a car, and then the boy gets by another one when he
blindly runs out afterwards to check on him.

So she stopped you from reading comics and she didn't know talent when she saw it?

She should've been investigated by the Teacher Police.

Actually, she was quite good, Simon. I believe her concern about me reading a comic in class was based
almost entirely upon what it might have encouraged others in class to do (or not do as the case may have it).

In certain classes I got away with reading other stuff when I was ahead on my work. It goes against the grain for a teacher to encourage students to read LESS. However, I never tried to read comics in class. Except in that one class where the teacher herself provided some comics for extra-reading assignments. Actually, come to think of it, there were two classes where something like that happened.

Comics are actually pretty common in classrooms these days from what I saw. My student teaching and volunteer work was in elementary classes. All of them had tons of books to encourage reading and all had comics, although for the most part they were things like adaptations of classical stories and mythology.

You're very kind to defend her. If I ruled the world, however, she'd have her licence suspended and would be forced to read every comic that Morbius ever appeared in...just to make sure she understood the seriousness of the situation.

I think it was at least two years until I brought another comic to school, but I had to…
It was that Superman vs Spider-Man Treasury Tabloid, and I just had to show it to others!

Superman and Spider-Man together in one giant-sized comic book just didn't happen!
That was an epic event that needed sharing.
