  1. Here we go! Another comment!

    Someone asked if the movies create new readers. Well I don’t know if I qualified as new since I was already reading coming in 1987, but the Keaton Batman movie make me try Batman.

    Mike’s comment about Reed and other geniuses in the Marvel U not affecting the rest of the world (why doesn’t everyone have flying cars) is part of the basis for Warren Ellis’s Planetary series.

    Just wanted to defend Tood Schoonover a bit. He’s the Central Mailer for the Legion APA I am in. Makes sense he will focus on the Legion over anything else.
