Glad to hear you are ok. I got into a nasty car accident thanks to a drunk driver this spring. If anyone here doesn't where a seatbelt, wear one.

It would help if he spelt corporate right.

That is definitely a problem thanks to marketing executives liking to give everything cool names. I stick by the rule that if its underground it's metal. Once it gets processed up and melted down into commercialized form its hard rock. Another big problem is that a lot of bands that we are arguing over being heavy metal or not today were considered metal at one point in time. When people were calling Kiss and Motley Crue metal, I bet they never imagined anything that would sound like Messhugguh.

and TERRI left him for the man who did it, Raven

Ed McGuiness (Thundercats, Superman): He may not be the best known, but he has a really great cartoon like quality to him. -------------------------------------- We have 27 on the list right now. Nominations end on Saturday morning, and the Round one brackets will be up later that day. Would you guys like sample images with the brackets?

His character flaw is his obsession. His strength is his physical prowess so what you said wouldn't make much sense that way. Exhaustion would work best. But wouldn't Batman's flaw be that no matter how hard he works that he is still human? No matter how great physical shape he is in, he will never be near invincible. Unlike characters like Superman and even Wolverine, he isn't physically unstoppable and there is limitations to his armor. That ending is plausible. Batman would beat someone to a near death point, but his opponent could try to kill him, too. Whereas Batman's flaw is his obsession, someone like Joker's strength is their obsession that has made them so violent.

Calm down, Zsasz. That's just how I would like to personally see the end of Batman: him becoming what he hates. Yes, I do know that Batman was created to prevent anyone from enduring what happened to him. I personally love it when they show Batman being completely insane/irrational. So to me, it makes sense. Besides, they'e never going to kill of Batman anyway, and this whole thread is people just talking about their ideas. You don't have to go around all psycho.

Yeah, I forgot who asked about it but the Neptunes produced it. It's not that good a song, but it's hypnotically catchy.

definitely Abobo, although I did like the real Fonzie or whatever he called himself.

I think the education folder could be a good idea, but if someone feels inclined to post a column, where will it go now?

That picture is amazing. uglypeople.com rocks.

I definitely think I'm a shoe in for the "cornflakes" category

I've assumed that Batman would be killed in the line of duty, not during his retirement as shown in Batman Beyond. I really didn't like that show.

If that's so, I can't wait to pick up all the new happenin' Ahmed Johnson merch.

and he was defeated by SHINJIRO OHTANI in the tournament to name the first WCW Cruiserweight Champion

Maybe he used pheromones. I've never been a fan of New X-Men. I really have never been able to get into it.

I see...the Prof. X thing was in issue #2 of the first Essential X-Men. As far as Wolvie's cliches, thats all part of Chris Claremont. He's all about using them, especially any and all variations of "lets hit them hard and hit them fast."

That would be cool, especially because it would definitely bump up the profile of whoever took him out. If they are looking for a bounty hunter, there is no better choice than Lobo.

Great choices everyone! Keep them coming

That sounds worse than the time that I had shaken baby syndrome.

who was managed by KEVIN SULLIVAN

That's the beauty of George. He'll be around forever. Him, Terry Funk, Jake Roberts, and Keith Richards.

That's the hard part...Superman would never kill someone, regardless of how psycho they are. Joker, however, would kill anyone just for the hell of it. Especially if they are his arch rival.

I hope everyone who he has influenced (or those who sampled him) get together to make a tribute CD to help with his legal bills.

-Mike Deodato (Avengers, Thor, Hulk): He has a really cool style that emphasizes the larger characters in a way that makes them look more powerful and grotesque. His costume designs rock, too. And after taking a break from comics in the late 90s, he's come back and his average person looks much better. - Ed McGuiness (Thundercats, Superman): He may not be the best known, but he has a really great cartoon like quality to him.
