The Face (comics)

The Face is a fictional character, a comic book superhero that appeared in 1940s comics during what historians and fans call the Golden Age of Comic Books. He was created by artist Mart Bailey and an unknown writer.

Publication history

The Face first appeared in the Columbia Comics omnibus title Big Shot Comics #1 (May 1940) and continued until issue #62 (January 1946). From issue #63 the feature continued as "Tony Trent" until Big Shot #104, the final issue of the series. Apart from appearing in Big Shot, The Face also had two issues of his own title (1941-1942), as well as two as Tony Trent (1948).

Originally created by Mart Bailey, the character wore a frightening green mask, with flaming red hair, a vampire's white fangs and ghoulish yellow eyes. Underneath the mask was a deep blue tuxedo, which gave him more class. His alter ego was Tony Trent. Tony's outgoing personality made him perfect for his job at a broadcasting station.

In the 1980s, new stories were published by Ron Frantz' Ace Comics. Three issues of What is... The Face? were published.

Show Me Love (Robyn song)

"Show Me Love" is a song by Swedish pop singer Robyn. It was released in October 1997 as a single from her debut album, Robyn Is Here. The song is her fourth Swedish, third UK and second US single. The song is sometimes confused with Robin S.'s 1993 hit "Show Me Love" because of identical song titles and similar first names; however, the two songs are not related.

History

In her home country, "Show Me Love" became Robyn's fourth hit, peaking at number 14, lower than "Do You Know (What It Takes)" and "Do You Really Want Me (Show Respect)", which both went top 10.

In the US, the single peaked at number seven, her second consecutive top 10 hit there. In the UK, "Show Me Love" became Robyn's first of two top 20 hits from Robyn Is Here and her first top 10 hit, peaking at number eight. In December 1997 the single received a Gold certification from the RIAA in recognition of 500,000 copies sold in the US. It was Robyn's last Top 10 and remains her last charting single on the Hot 100 to date.

Background and promotion

On 9 September 2013, The Wanted uploaded a "Special Announcement" to their official YouTube page. They announced that, due to extra recording, Word of Mouth would not be released until 4 November, but, to make up for it, they announced the release of a brand new single called "Show Me Love (America)" and said it would be on the radio from 8am the following morning. They also revealed this on Twitter. It was later announced that the song would receive its world premiere on Capital FM the following morning.
