Jim Carrey is more of a Stretch Armstorng rubbery type of guy than a bionic guy. I can see Jackie Chan as the 6 Million/Billion Dollar Man, though.

"Earth's climate, as we know, swings hot and cold through natural geologic cycles. "

Not just designed to discourage "certain groups" of people from loitering, all people. Just because one isn't homeless doesn't mean you can suddenly lay down on some spikes. It's just that the people most likely to loiter is from said "certain groups."

I just did the same, I had 1 credit left this month. If its bad I will totally blame Giz!

Ha ha! X-Men continuity! Like that has ever been a thing...

Might as well. The X-Men continuity is already irreparably screwed.

Pretty sure it's missing an 'e'. So it should read - "It is progressive but note worthy and filled with warm and endearing characters."

I read that too fast.

Is it just me or does that Silk masthead look like it belongs on a Sixties DC comic about groovy teens?

Great question, I haven't seen much discussion of that either. One of the founders for Planetary Resources actually describes dropping giant balls of platinum into the desert...though beforehand, they are superheated to make them light and foam-like....I believe I put a link to that vid in the article somewhere. It's…

I still have yet to see how any of these companies that want to mine asteroids right now expect to return the material they mine to earth and recover it without endangering people on the ground. This isn't a space capsule made as light as possible, this is tons of mined material. You can't have it just fall onto land…

Regarding the RDJ interview:

Spider-Man needs a do-over for movies but not in the way Marvel wants to do it. I wish they'd make him an 30-something with a somewhat steady job, wife and kid.

I think they're going back to high school for one reason: character control. A younger actor means that he'll be more likely to sign on for more movies, unlike, say, the almost-fifty-year old RDJ. At least, a younger Peter Parker will be able to bridge the gap to new heroes in Phases Three and Four (and Five, etc.).

It fascinates me that the first reboot really played up (per the Blu-Ray special features) the fact that they wanted to set it in high school and spend the whole film in high school unlike the first take, which got past high school too quickly in their eyes, they said high school was definitive for Peter Parker, so…
