Some days ago a man named Tom Dupree, creator of a fine blog about editing and miscellany called “You and Me, Dupree,” found himself looking at a crossword puzzle and needing a four-letter word defined as “Avenger.” He thought of Emma Peel, the character played by Diana Rigg in the mid-60s series “The Avengers.” But the crossword-puzzle constructor was referring to an Avenger from the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
It was nice for me to again be reminded of Diana Rigg, the slim, gorgeous creature who played a part on my adolescent fantasies. But it also occurred to me that Emma and Peel are both four letters in length. Thus a new page was born, and I have Tom Dupree to thank for catalyzing it.
