    1. Hi Hugh,

      Well done (as usual). All absolutely correct, and I want to compliment you on #2, in particular. Not many folks remember Once a Hero...but clearly you do!!

  5. Wasn't there an episode in Lost where we flashback to a young John Locke reading a pulp magazine or something?

    1. Hi Cannon,

      I did include a Lost still here, but I think you are right about Locke and a pulp magazine. Anyone remember the specific episode?
