Vandar Ang is a DC Comics
supervillain who was exposed to radiation from a meteor
and made immortal; he battles Superman and the Justice League. Kane is an anti-hero from a series of novels
by Karl Edward Wagner. In
prehistory (when Conan lived) he was cursed by an Elder God
with immortality. These two characters
have been conflated by WN scholars.
Dennis Power argues that the
Three Stooges are immortal, which is why their films show them living
in different time periods.
The same is true of Buzsla and
Ollu. This immortal pair have told
their stories to a number of writers, filmmakers, and
cartoonists, and so their stories have been represented in the
films of Laurel and Hardy, and Abbot and Costello; and in the
animated adventures of the Flintstones, and the comic
strip stories of Mutt and Jeff. Dennis
is not saying that Laurel and Hardy are immortal, but that
they have taken the stories of these two immortals as source
material over and over again.
The important thing about this
slide is that it shows how Dennis Power manipulated
the photograph to show what he wanted, including adding the
credit line to make it look legitimate.
