Comics That Don't Need a Converter Box

It turns out that Jack Kirby invented HD:

But is it 1080p??The world's first wide screen comic (oh, sorry...wide scream) courtesy of Blue Ribbon Comics #1 (1983), reprinting Adventures of the Fly #1 (1959), by Simon and Kirby. Sadly, that 2-page splash panel was the only thing "wide screen" or remotely special in the 7 page story. Except, of course, for the oddly costumed Spider Spry, aka The Spider!!

Uhh...flys don't have feathers, dudeWelcome to the DC Universe, Spider...stay obscure enough, and someday Grant Morrison may base a maxi-series on you...

Imitation is...
Oops, wrong cover...how ever could I have made that mistake? Anyway, here's The Fly:

...the sincerest form of flatterySo, just out of curiosity...the whole point of Final Crisis is to bring Archie and Milestone into DC continuity? Why, you sly Grant Morrison...
