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.
This is pretty good:

Clips of an episode of the BBC show "Masterminds", where the guy's chosen subject is Neil Gaiman's Sandman. I got about as many questions right as he did, thankyouverymuch.

Regarding Astonishing X-Men #17, is anyone now wondering if the Sebastian Shaw and Neurasonic Teenage Warhead we're seeing are real at all? I'm assuming that Cassandra Nova is a psychic projection, either from her slimy prison or from hitchhiking within Emma Frost. I'm also assuming that the Emma we've been seeing for months is some other Genoshan mutant (with the diamond body power) that Cassandra reshaped mentally and physically into an Emma doppelganger as part of a contingency plan. But Warhead's powers are also telepathic, and thus easily replicable by either Cassandra or Emma. And the "good" Emma tried to physically breach that containment device, rather than the far more logical Shaw. I wonder if Peter actually knocked himself out in that fight a couple issues ago ...

Matt, sounds good to me, but I'm really, really lost at this point. I'm enjoying the character stuff, but have no idea what the hell is going on. Leave it to Joss to make Scott interesting, though. Whoulda thunk?

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

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

Who's the father of Catwoman's kid?
Sam, Slam's son. Apparently.
However, I'm going to maintain that, really, it's Superboy Prime.
