20 Questions For You All for the 12/14 Comic Week
I am sure there are some spoilers involved in the following 20 questions. Feel free to answer or not - some of them ARE rhetorical, after all...
1. Anyone have any idea what will happen in the next two issues of Nightwing?
2. What was the coolest toy in the Elseworlds assortment? Red Son Superman, Red Son Wonder Woman, Thrillkiller Batman or Thrillkiller Batgirl?
3. If Nemesis, from Wildcats: Nemesis, fought the moon, how much would you bet on Nemesis (at least based on how she is written in the series)?
4. How much did X-Men #179 read like Peter Milligan saying, "Uhmm...guys? I sorta had plans for Iceman before you depowered him"?
5. Anyone else creeped out by the rape talk in Green Arrow #57?
6. How did May Parker's insurance cover all those ridiculously experimental surgeries?
7. What would you do if some guy started sneaking into your apartment and leaving photographs of himself while you were at work? (See Local #2 for this scenario)
8. Do you think that Johns is going to have the Death of Superman be the beginning of Infinite Crisis? Like something evil snuck over with Superman when he returned?
9. How did Stan Lee think it appropriate for Xavier to be lusting after Jean Grey in X-Men #3?
10. Which of the fill-in artists on Amazing Joy Buzzards Vol. 2 #3 did you think did the best job?
11. Am I evil for confusing Khary Randolph with Khari Evans?
12. So...Secret War #5....ever gonna be referenced by anyone but Bendis?
13. Is Secret War #5 even going to be referenced by BENDIS?
14. Wasn't the job Mark Bagley did stepping in on the end of Ultimate Iron Man #5 impressive?
15. Would you stay in Manhattan in the DMZ world?
LIGHTNING ROUND!!!
16. Whose Infinite Crisis poster will sell more: George Perez or Jim Lee?
17. Which Doom do you prefer? Horribly scarred face from the explosion or horribly scarred face from putting the mask on?
18. Is it creepy for Hal Jordan to date an alien who made herself look older to be with him?
19. Who do you think would win in a softball game? The 1987 West Coast Avengers or 1987 East Coast Avengers?
20. What was your favorite story in this week's Best of The Spirit?

17. I like the Horrible Scarred Doom because he picked at his acne.
18. Even creepier: she didn't just make herself look older, she aged herself.
19. The DC Super Stars.
1. Beats me, but I wouldn't be surprised if the creative team is, say, Jay Faerber and Herb Trimpe.
2. Red Son Superman!
4. DING! And he does a great job with Polaris, too.
5. Thanks Brad, for ruining everything because you don't communicate well with girls.
7. That depends. Is it Andy Dick or Brian Kerwin?
8. Possibly, but fuckamagee, that's lame.
9. I doubt Stan was thinking of anything except paying his rent in those days, frankly.
11. No.
12. Yes.
13. No.
14. Yes. Especially since Andy Kubert just plain sucks. I must admit I'm tempted to get Ultimate Hitler Youth vol. 2 with Ferry involved.
15. Ever get the feeling that Brian Wood protagonists are the kind of people Jello Biafra aimed "Holiday in Cambodia" at?
16. In a perfect world, GP.
18. Only if the comic is written by Ron Marz. Or Mark Waid. Or Greg Rucka. Or Brad Meltzer. Or Chris Claremont. Or Piers Anthony. Or....
9. a) Because orginally Xavier wasn't an older man--he was a prematurely bald young man.
In X-Men #1, published in 1963, Xavier explains to Jean that he was "born of parents who worked on the first A-bomb project."
Presumably Stan meant the Manhattan project during World War 2. That would make Xavier around 20 years old at the time of X-Men #1.
b) Since when do men not have inappropriate thoughts about women? If our thought bubbles were visible to all, every single one of us would be in jail.
5) Well, I don't think you were supposed to be comfortable with it...
8) God I hope not.
15) Well, if Iraqis can still stomach living in Iraq today...
17) Not exactly answering your question, but didn't Mark Waid kill him? Is he back already? Or did everyone just forget Unthinkable ever happened?
No, he's still "dead", but there's Brubaker's Books of Doom mini currently on the shelves.
what made you think of that scene in x-men #3?
"18. Hal Jordan is creepy, period."
Agreed.
