No, it's something in the book. I left it with the feeling that it would have been better if you'd written it.
I'm all up in the law now, but damn it feels good to get my violence on.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020
I left it with the feeling that it would have been better if you'd written it.
If you're serious, I'm seriously touched.
Another thing that pisses me off is that I have this superhero book idea...but now I'm afraid it'll get compared to SIWBI. And that would suck like Dr. Vaccuum's Ultra Suck Device of Doom.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I thought it was worth reading, but I wanted more. I guess if you choose to have your characters be super villains and super heroes - there should be more sense of play. and that really wasn't there. You could have done that, MM.
I read another book shortly after I read Invincible and it was much better. Evil Genius by Catherine Jinks. It was for kids , but it had more character development

I need only two things to write my awesome, Pulitzer, Hugo, Nebula and Nobel Prize winning book:
Energy.
and
Time.
...
I may well be fucked.

No, I'm serious. I thought "MM should read this." Then I thought "MM won't like it. It comes in the right wrapper, but it doesn't have enough...enough." Then I thought "I'd like to read MM's version of this."
Go write your book.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Hil, I had that same reaction to that line in The Golden Compass. I really loved Pullman's metaphors and analogies.
