THE LAW IS A ASS #449: I SIC A POINT OF LAW ON ISAAC
Consider time, legal motions, timely legal motions, and legal motions in time… how does time travel affect the statute of limitations?

The Law Is A Ass #448: The (Dare)Devil’s In De Tales
The Law Is A Ass #448: If Kingpin is a defendant, can Daredevil call him as a prosecution witness? And… what the heck is Thor doing?

The Law Is A Ass #441: Flash’s Step-Mom Is Tele-pathetic
Do I look like a cow to you? I spent four columns last year – the four when we were playing in the minefield that was the “The Trial of the Flash” episode of The Flash – telling you that Central City district attorney Cecile Horton was really bad at her job. And now, thanks…

THE LAW IS A ASS Installment # 439: Bouncing Ideas Off Superman
In the immortal words of Dorothy Parker… Err, maybe we shouldn’t go there. Sorry it’s been a while. September until May constitutes a while, cause it’s a bit longer than a little while. Between out of town comic book conventions, trips to Chicago, family vacations, trips to Chicago, holidays, even more trips to Chicago –…

The Law Is A Ass #438: Stu Went Looking For The Old Bailey
TV or, not TV, that is the question. The answer is TV. I know, I’ve spent the past five columns writing about a TV show and not comic books, and also four out of the five columns before that doing the same. But sometimes these TV shows are just asking for it. Like “By His…

The Law Is A Ass #437: Green Arrow Joins The FB Aye-Yi-Yi
No, I didn’t lie. All I said I was that I finished with the Arrow episode “Docket No. 11-19-41-73.” I never said I was finished with Arrow. Now, all Arrow had to do for me to be finished with it was get through the last two episodes of the 6th season without any outrageous legal…

The Law Is A Ass #436: Is Green Arrow Not Guilty By Reason Of Inanity?
I’m sick of it! I’ve spent the past three weeks writing about the Arrow episode “Docket No. 11-19-41-73” and like Popeye said, “That’s all I can stands, I can’t stands no more!” No matter how long it takes, I’m going to finish with “Docket No. 11-19-41-73” today. Even if I have to write about it…

The Law Is A Ass #435: Green Arrow Adds Insult To Perjury
Suppose you were a lawyer. (Don’t worry, this is just a thought experiment. I wouldn’t wish that fate on my worst enemy; only on myself.) Suppose also, that you told your significant other you wouldn’t get married until you had established yourself as a lawyer. Suppose further that you couldn’t establish yourself as a lawyer,…

The Law Is A Ass #434: Green Arrow’s Prosecutor Is Trying My Patience
If, as it has been said, a fish rots from the head down, then Team Arrow, from The CW’s Arrow, must be a twenty ton whale shark that’s decomposing from the head, Oliver (Green Arrow) Queen, down through the rotting body that is Green Arrow’s support group, Team Arrow. Why I call them rotten is…

The Law Is A Ass #433: Green Arrow Wants Me To Trial Little Tenderness
I think I’m losing all respect for Oliver (The Green Arrow) Queen. And considering when the TV series Arrow started he was a stone killer except he killed people not stones, I didn’t have very much respect for him to begin with. We’re talking about the Arrow episode “Docket No. 11-19-41-73.” Keep those numbers handy;…

The Law Is A Ass #432: Things Aren’t Impeachy Keen with Green Arrow
A wise man once said “Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it. Usually in summer school.” No, it wasn’t George Santayana. It was me; I lied about the wise part. But whoever said it, the sentiment is true, so it would behoove Oliver Queen not to start planning that Disneyland…

The Law Is A Ass #431: Spider-Man’s Crime Fighting Needs Improv-Ment
Spider-Man. Spider-Man. Who, <a href=” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SUtziaZlDeE to the song, does whatever a spider can. However, when it comes to fighting crime, sometimes he doesn’t do it as well as a spider would. The Amazing Spider-Man Annual Vol 3, No. 1 had three stories in it. We’ll take what was behind Door Number 3, a little…
