The image below has long been one of my favorite panels of my wife's "Pattie Kaiks" strip that ran in the Reno News and Review for quite a few years. It combines our love of pop culture, with the culture shock that we had to share our love with an entirely new generation of fans. Looking back at the strip now, as the father of twin girls, my perceptions of the comic have changed even more. My heart leaps for joy when my 3 1/2 year old twins History and Mystery sing the Iron Man: Armored Adventures theme song, and I cannot wait for them to see the Star Wars films with me. They just watched The Wizard of Oz for the first time yesterday, one of my favorite films all time maybe my absolute favorite depending on the day, and the wicked witch left a significant mark on History's sub-conscious. Mystery, on the other hand, seemed unfazed.
