Sometimes, I forget most people don' t know comics beyond the '78 Superman and the MCU...
In my fencing class this week, I had a young man show up who wanted to start lessons. I invite him to join for the lesson, and ask his name.
"Orion," he says.
"Cool," I say. "Were your parents big Jack Kirby fans?"
>Crickets<
Then one of my other student starts to laugh as he finishes processing the reference.
Gotta know your audience...
