Is it just me, or does it sound like Jericho is singing Orton's theme? *Waits patiently for everyone to tell him he's crazy.*

You da man, Czech.

Very observant.

Paging Val Venis...

Since this is a redundant thread (the other one opened as I was typing this one), I think you SHOULD close it. I've already reposted this material in the first thread, and this thread is being ignored by everyone else (and rightfully so). On the other hand, threatening to lock a thread that NO ONE has replied to makes you look SO COOL.

How did this become a Jeff Hardy thread again?

Actually, I was hoping someone else would be pushed instead.

ANYWAYS, what I said in the other thread no one will ever see is: From lordsofpain.net: cbadc sent in the following: I just got back from Salt Lake City's House Party Raw Live (28 Aug 04). Edge was injured several minutes into his and Y2J's match. Y2J threw edge over the ropes and onto the ground. When edge did not get up, several trainers ran up to him and were checking out his leg. Y2J just watched from inside the ring. After 10 minutes, a gentleman came up to the referee and whispered something into his ear. The referee then proceeded to do a count out, giving the match to Y2J. Y2J immediately jumped out of the ring and kneeled next to Edge. After several more minutes they carried Edge out of the arena. Far be it from me to wish harm on another human being, but if this keeps him off of my TV, I'm a happy man.

Awww...shit. *runs out of ring*

You beat me by 3 minutes!!!!!! DAMN IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Um, somebody merge the threads or something.

It was the first movie he directed. AND WEIRD SCIENCE OWNS YOUR ASSES!!!!!111

You'd be well advised to keep it that way.

Heh. I just read the latest issue of Amazing SpiderMan. I'm not laughing anymore.

It was toward the end of the Thing's solo series run in the mid-1980s. This was around the time "Hulkamania" hit big, so a comic exploitation of a pop-culture phenomena was a natural. Ms. Marvel II and Demolition-Man (this was years before the Stallone movie, FYI) were the super-hero names later taken by wrestlers in the UCWF. And since this was before wrestling was exposed, the matches were shoots.

In "Quiver", Green Arrow was only supposed to have the memories of Green Arrow from the 70s, and in the post-Crisis DCU, no one is supposed to remember Wonder Woman from before 1986. So how did Oliver Queen know Wonder Woman? Oh, yeah...because Kevin Smith's a hack, that's why.

Busiek. Again. Along with George Perez. Greatest Creative Team Ever. Stern/Buscema/Palmer from the mid-80s. Thomas/Buscema and Thomas/Neal Adams in the 70s.

I wonder if they'll acknowledge Supes' death at the hands of Doomsday, since that is a major event in Booster's history. How so?

You'd have made an excellent defense lawyer for Hitler. The same could be said for Eva Braun.

Angst + radiation = Marvel style.

My favorite writer-artist as a kid was John Byrne. I used to go out of my way to collect back-issues of "Fantastic Four," "X-Men," and "Alpha Flight." His work on "Superman" was magificent, in my opinion. "Avengers West Coast" became THE Avengers team during his run. "Next Men," an early 90s tale of genetically iwas ahead of its time. Flash-forward to the recent past. -"Spider-Man: Chapter One" was a forgettable revamping of the old Spidey stories from the early-60s. -"Marvel: the Lost Generation" was a good concept, but a little too far-fetched (super-hero team that spanned 20+ years, but no one in the current Marvel continuity remebers or mentions them) and had a very anti-climatic end. -His run on "X-Men: the Hidden Years" was okay, but was cancelled because Marvel wanted to relaunch X-Men under Morrison, rather than because of sales or quality (an issue that lead him to swear he'd never work for Marvel again). -"Batman and Superman: Generations" was good. "Generation 2" was okay. "Generations 3" sucked ass. -His JLA run, which was only a springboard for the new "Doom Patrol" series, was universally panned. -The new "Doom Patrol" isn't very good at all. So what happened? Is the guy out of ideas? His artwork is unchanged in 15 years...why does it look good in 1989, but look stale today? Isn't it weird that everything he's done lately has been a nostalgia project? Has Byrne lost his talent, or is he just stuck in the past?

Krypto was brought back several years ago if I recall. I wouldn't say he was recently brought back. When you've been reading comics for 18 years, 3-4 years ago is considered recent.

He was wildly popular about 10-12 years ago, then he quit drawing. That's the best explanation I can think of.

My local retailer had the incentive Colossus cover on display beside the cash register. It was totally a WTF moment, as I began frantically searching the pages of the regular covered version I held in my hand. While I was happy with the story where Colossus died several years ago, it was so out-of-the-blue that I couldn't beleive he'd stay dead for long. Reintroducing him into a book where Kitty Pryde is one of the stars was definitely the right move, given the two's history together. Given the invisible creative borders the Marvel editorial community puts between the different X-books, this may be the only way these two could interact. Its okay to not like Firefly, so long as you don't bash others for liking it. **cough**Vyce**cough**
