>Indeed.  Here's how Art "Maus" Spiegleman narrated a solitary Plas panel in
>his article about the comic's creator, Jack Cole, in The New Yorker
>(4/19/99):
>
>"The art ricochets like a racquetball slammed full force in a closet.  Your
>eye, however, is guided as if it were a skillfully controlled pinball,
>often by Plastic Man himself acting as a compositional device.  His
>distended body is an arrow pointing out the sights as it hurtles through
>time. In just a single panel, our hero chases along a footpath in a park,
>trailing a mugger.  Running from the rear of the picture, Plastic Man's
>S-curved body echoes the path itself as he loops around one pedestrian in
>the distance and extends between two lovers about to kiss--lipstick traces
>are on his elongated neck as he passes them--to swoop up between an old
>man's legs like an enormous penis wearing sunglasses and stare into his
>startled face."

How many words was that?
