It's things like this that make it impossible to get into an existing series that has been through the respective mills of Marvel and DC, you don't know where to start, which writers know what they are doing and to top it off the continuity is either nuts or so choked with characters from past stories or crossovers

Speaking of the Wolverine/Molly story arc it just felt way too contrived. First we introduce the villain with nearly enough foreshadowing to build the Empire Stare building (spoiler alert the villain with no sympathy or back story is going to DIE). Then we get this labored plot about wanting to incorporate Molly into

The Runaways
This demonstrates what is wrong with the Marvel/DC in general. I liked the Runaways for several reasons, it was new, different, featured death in a way that did not minimize it with deus ex machina and actually had a decent twist towards the end of its first arc. As it progressed, and the authors switched

I'm not sure it matters if any of the main characters in DC or Marvel die because they all come back in increasingly improbable ways that fuck with the continuity of the respective universes.

Overcompensation
R. Kelly is doing an awful lot of singing about sex with girls for somebody whose Trapped in the Closet…

Y? Y?!
So I know that I am part of this so-called generation Y that this woman is gleefully stereotyping but what I do not understand is why she is calling us gen Y. I have been told many different names for my generation among them "Millennial" and "Generation Rx" by an anti-drug agent at an assembly once. I'm pretty

Will you tea bag him while he is wearing bagg'ns? You know Tea-Bagg'n?

I am serious, don't call me Shirley.

I found it disconcerting that the CGI lizards were wearing jockstraps while others were naked. I sure we just broke into a lizard locker room and forced them to dance for our entertainment with other CGI slaves from Monsters Vs Aliens. I'm also sure that the babies were kidnapped from their CGI parents.

Funny I always assumed they were talking about hair or fingers…

Anybody else notice how "off" their facial expressions were? I think that made it even worse.

Drugs? Spotty live performance record? Intriguing review and sample? I'm going to check this out if only for the sake of clarification.

Tasteless jacket?

Jorge, I totally agree with you and would like to add the entire cast of the view and my 7th grade French Teacher.

BASS MASTERS!!!!!

It is categorically bizarre that people on school boards would elect to ban his books because of the "Unzipping the fly of God almighty" phrase in Slaughterhouse 5. It's even more bizarre that people who are functionally illiterate are allowed to decide what books to give students access to in school.

It would be fantastic if Zappa and Vonnegut were on a debate team together. I'm pretty sure that anybody they faced would drown under a tsunami of reason infused with humor.

You have no idea how much I appreciate Vonnegut getting mentioned by you. I'm dangerously close to hyperbole.
