He's much better than Hilary, Rudy, McCain or any other candidate out there right now. Plus, Clinton is usiing every dirty trick in the book to try and smear Obama. He has thus far fended off the attacks with grace and ease. Excellent qualities for our Commander In Chief. <BR/> Yes, Marvel has ruined their universe, but at the same time they have made it interesting to see just how they will proceed from here on out. Will creators just ignore the Civil War decree and do their own thing? Will fans rise up in protest and force reform as they did during the Clone Saga? <BR/> Older comic creators, guys in their late 30's-early 40's, are still enamored with the comic landscape of their youth. That's why Smith would only do GA if Ollie was behind the mask. They love that old stuff and want to keep it that way forever. Joe Q wants to return Pete to a young, single, college kid even though a whole generation of fans now cannot remember a time when Pete and MJ weren't wed. These guys are standing in the way of change. They won't let go of the past so Ollie will marry Dinah and Nightwing can't marry Babs as he will forever be the kid sidekick in these guys' minds. <BR/> All Star Batman has officially been pushed back to May. Why not just ax this book? Most people hate it anyway. Just end the farce and cancel it. <BR/> Yes, Outrage has died in this country. We have given up so much freedom and are being taxed to death but no one gets riled. I don't know if the apathetic Gen Xers can get mad about anything. Lets line them up and kick them in the nuts to see if that does it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
