Ssssssooooo, I guess I will wait for the last tpb. <BR/><BR/>I was into Witchblade for a while, then had to drop her 'cause of the money sitch way back when. I always loved Witchblade, the series, the toys, even met the guy that played Irons on the show and all that. Sometimes you can't go home again, especially when the back issues hit over 100.<BR/><BR/>Steve Rogers is still dead. So is Marvel to me. 'NUFF SAID!!!<BR/><BR/>I got ribbed about not watching the Super Bowl. Again, the only important conflicts in life are settled with weapons and deadly force. Besides, I refuse to fall for the substitute for tribal/regional warfare. In earlier (and in some cases recent) times, peoples of various regions, tribal settlements, cities and eventually countries went to war in the name of whatever reason they needed or wanted to do so. We need what they have. They don't respect our ways. We hate them. We have always been at war with Oceania. And so on. And this trick of having grown men to fight pseudobattles for regional, state or national pride? Why not just sent a youth out to kill a fake robot animal in the wilderness to prove his 'manhood' too? Just amazing.<BR/><BR/>And Iron Man again. BOYCOTT, I WILL NEVER YIELD, NEVVVVVVVVVER!!!<BR/>Thank you...Carlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06642758191046222448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7747146.post-35054037008949420442008-02-04T20:23:00.000-08:002008-02-04T20:23:00.000-08:00Nick, the Hero/Beth thing blew me away.

For awhile it really sucked, but First Born has given it direction. Hopefully Top Cow can keep the momentum going!Heidi Meeleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01436991028382498324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7747146.post-30070995643162298032008-02-04T20:22:00.000-08:002008-02-04T20:22:00.000-08:00Eaglewing, good man.

I tried not to spoil, but it is dang near impossible! <BR/><BR/>Marvel irritated me with that media blitz, but I am sure it is good for the industry, or at least for speculators. For diehard fans, I vote that it doesn't enhance anything.<BR/><BR/>Yay about the Giants too! It was a great game in every way. I loved the ads as well, so that was the icing on the cake. The only bad part was that I couldn't have any beer or pizza because of the diet. Otherwise it would have been perfect.

Bet it was good tho.<BR/><BR/>Seems like Marvel is getting pretty good at getting their storylines out to the media before the comic is actually available. Is that a good marketing strategy?<BR/><BR/>Yay, the Giants won! I don't really follow or care about football much at all, but I'll always cheer for the underdog. Watched the Iron Man TV spot on Apple's site, and it looks great. Stoked to see this one now. Should be a very good comic movie year.Eaglewinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17372974358045440796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7747146.post-51875919883130132002008-02-02T20:20:00.000-08:002008-02-02T20:20:00.000-08:00I enjoyed the ending to Y also.
