Wow! Thanks for taking me back down nostalgia lane, MrGBH! I actually had to run out to Wikipedia to check out your example, and discovered that Stargirl and S.T.R.I.P.E. are the modern incarnations of The Star-Spangled Kid and Stripesy, whom I used to be quite fond of from my original Golden Age collection! I had totally forgotten those characters, and so thanks for reminding me! I gotta catch up on some of this recent stuff. 🙂
I think Stargirl and her sidekick S.T.R.I.P.E. would take issue with that statement.
Of course, that’s only one example out of hundreds.
