Bendis and Mack write him much darker.
I may check out Bendis, then, but I'm actually a bit relieved that I'm not crazy-insane over Daredevil. My batfamily obsession takes a lot of energy to maintain.
No studying? Damn! Next thing they'll tell me is I'll have to eat jelly doughnuts or sleep with a supermodel to get things done around here. I ask you, how much can one man give?

Also, money.
I give thanks every week that I'm not really into any of the Marvel titles.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore

Me, too. Only then I remember about Ultimate Spidey and Fantastic Four. And The Pulse. And then I say "Damn you, Bendis! Damn yoooou!"

To be honest, I'm not overly excited about Daredevil nowadays. I keep reading it cause I do, and it was one of my first, but I feel like it's gotten too psychological for me to really appreciate it, and I've never been a huge fan of Maleev's art. Pulse is good stuff, though.

Well, yeah. But these days I seem to have more money than time, which is... weird, but I'm not complaining.

I'm not obsessed with Ultimate X-Men, but I'm enjoying it. And I've been thinking about picking up Ultimate Fantastic Four.
Frickin' crack.

Aw, hell. It's like I'm at a giant house party and you just passed me the water bong.

Like I need a hole in my head
Yes but for some very visceral reason I can't explain, I doubt Emma's goodness much more than I would ever doubt Magneto. I guess because I think of Magneto as broken-and-thus-evil, and Emma as just-a-big-bitch. Kitty love blinding me again.
Kiba, I think it very much depends on who is writing Emma. For me, with some writers I can buy Emma as a reformed bitch, who means well for the most part (Morrison, I think, wrote her this way), but with others (Claremont, I'm looking at you), I feel like she's just biding her time, waiting to put a big ol' whammy on everyone.
We'll see what Joss does with Emma, but since Kitty's in the book, I figure I'll be looking at her through Kitty's eyes.

I may have to seize the cat.

This, and I am now since reading Wizard and knowing Chris Claremont wanted Joss going to be all "Aha, Chris Claremont's Emma is the one we're seeing here."
Plus? Currently reading X-Men from 1985, where Emma does things like surprise Kitty in the back of an airplane, which I tend not to think of as "nice."
...I did feel sympathy for Emma though, when she was talking about how [ she still can't compete with Jean Grey, despite being way hot, very smart, and very much not dead. ]

I didn't feel sympathy for her, but I appreciated the wording of the sentiment.
