GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

That was pretty nifty.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Okay, after reading his recent Daredevil issues and the first two volumes of his Fantastic Four run, I am on the Mark Waid train. I thought Kingdom Come was overrated, so I was prejudiced against him, but I've come around. Has anyone read Irredeemable or Incorruptible ? They sound like really cool ideas up my alley.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I started both and quickly dropped them due to lack of interest (after the first issue in the case of Incorruptible), but you might have a different reaction.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I know Mark. He succeeded me as editor at Amazing Heroes (though he was only there about 4 months). But we hung out a fair amount when he was moving to L.A. then.

I met him at Comic-Con and got him to sign his first Daredevil issue, and he also embossed it in Braille! So that was cute.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I like this: [link] It's a martial artist and a contortionist (one person) explaining why my least favourite common female "heroic" pose: both nipples and butt crack facing forward and ready to fight is just not working.
