Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

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.

I sometimes wonder if comics writers go out of their way to make Cyclops as unsympathetic as possible. The only recent writer I can remember giving him a fair shake was Joss.

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

I'm always boggled when he's referred to as "fan favorite Cyclops."

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

That was my thought too, Hec. I always think "Who are these "fans" and does their universe have shrimp?"

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

Tom, the visuals did suggest something of that ilk to me, for real.

I got into a discussion with someone who said he didn't understand how anyone could dislike Scott. Is there a jpg already made up for "u new here??" The "she doesn't even go here!" only partially covers it.

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

Paging Miracleman! Coming To A Marvel Comic Near You...MIRACLEMAN!

The final chapter has now been written in one of the longest running copyright/ownership sagas in the world of comic books. With a few filings in the Trademark court, MIRACLEMAN has now been set free, in a manner of speaking, and is now owned, fully and solely, by Marvel Comics.

So the dancing Deadpool with the various con videos has put out a Gangnam Style video parody: [link]

I'm impressed by his ability to get even random, non con-going people to dance with him.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I thought I saw him at DragonCon! Don't know if it was that Deadpool, though.
