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.

All the different universes make things confusing sometimes. I can't remember if Ultimate universe Angel has been giving subtext or if that was just the 1602-verse character.

As for what prompted Dazzler to ask I was thinking it was because of the boot thing and the "Are you okay?" combined with the "Stay behind me" bit. And there's probably a bit of the stereo-typical "If he/she doesn't want me, they must be gay" thing since she seems to have been crushing on Pete for awhile.

"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

In a way, I hope he's not, as they already introduced Northstar and I don't trust comic book writers to have two gay characters in a book without automatically making them a couple. Kind of like well-meaning but clueless friends with the "I know someone else who's gay—you'd be perfect for each other!" matchmaking thing .

I'm actually not crazy about the We Must Pair Up All the Teammates with Each Other philosophy in general. It ends up being incestuous and soap-operalike and suddenly I'm thankful I've never run across any Ben Grimm/Johnny Storm slash .

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

The first Ultimate HoYay was Colossus and someone else -- he was asking about someone? Was that Angel?

I seem to recall him being rather fixated on Logan in the beginning.

"Don't think of yourself as an organic pain collector racing towards oblivion." Dogbert to Dilbert

Green Arrow needs to lose the new art team. Painful. Painful.

I agree. The thing of it is, I think they do pretty well when Team Green is in action, but when it comes to close-ups or character moments, all that I can think is Paul Coker Jr. of Mad magazine, good for comedy, nsm straight-on superheroes.

BTW, is anybody else reading Justice League Elite ? Ollie is up to his old tricks in that title.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

All the characters in Green Arrow look like they've taken double doses of the Joker's toxin.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

JLU. Heh. When I used to read Mister Miracle back in the day, Vermin Vunderbar always sounded like Arte Johnson in my head. OTOH, I never, ever, figured Granny Goodness would sound like Ed Asner.

I'd always imagined Margaret Hamilton, myself.

Yup. That's about what I imagined, too.
