He just doesn't look like the genetic offspring of Leia and Han to me. You're right, it's like Snape was in there somewhere, or an alien who looked like Benedict Cumberbatch.

I kept waiting for Mason Treadwell to jump out from behind a huge floral arrangement and shoot Emily and/or Jack.

I know, right?!

Nobody has mentioned it yet, but I loved the little touch of Emily/Amanda's defense lawyer being played by Tom Amandes, aka the father of Emily VanCamp's character on Everwood. Or am I the only person who watched both shows? :)

So the message here is: "Don't bother buying any new Marvel comics until this all shakes out", right?

Big fan of Wildguard. It'd be nice to have more of it, but his creator-owned stuff has been the victim of his mainstream success.

I thought this article was going to be about the feeling I get when ignoring the urgent main quest to go running around doing side quests or just exploring things. I know that the game's story says that when I go to the watchtower, it has been destroyed by a dragon and the people are all dead. But a big part of me…

I get that, honestly. But I find it wonderfully expressive. There's a lot of urban/street art sensibility to it that really makes it work for young heroes. I've also noticed similar elements in the work of a lot of Central/South American artists, so maybe that all ties together.

Most of them can be had fairly cheap. There are just a few that seem to be in short supply and are hard to find/expensive. I'd love to see the whole series collected and re-released.

Agents of SHIELD was SO hamstrung by those early episodes, where there was literally nothing they could do to advance their main plot until Winter Soldier came out. It probably would have been much better to wait and launch it after the movie, so they could jump into the action right away. It still has a lot of…

My username actually comes from Impulse's arch-enemy. I just don't usually use the picture as my avatar anymore. And yes, that whole short period where Bart was the Flash was such a cruel tease by DC.

It took me a while to do it, but I managed to get a complete run of Impulse and a complete run of Young Justice. And they aren't goin' anywhere.

Well, up until it isn't. I had to give up on Invincible around the Viltrumite War/Destroy the Entire Image Universe phase, when it was nothing but blood and gore and angst.

Jaime's best moment - I… am… a dentist!

I loved Jaime's series! He was also a great part of the retro-screwball Batman: Brave and the Bold animated series. Jaime was also ruined by the New 52, unfortunately. If you liked Jaime, you might want to try the new Nova series from Marvel. He's a young kid from Carefree, Arizona (no, really) who inherits his…

Thank you for the props for Impulse! Waid really hit it out of the park with that series. It was also the big mainstream debut for Ramos and for a young fella named Ethan Van Sciver. That series and Young Justice actually got me hooked on comics again after a long time away. One of my prized possessions is a…

Especially THIS Lobo. *ptui*

"Candle Jack"
"… You aren't very good at this, are you?"

I would fall asleep to it at night. :)

He even inspired a whole list of tropes on TV Tropes, starting with the Xanatos Gambit (all possible outcomes benefit the villain) and going all the way through Xanatos Speed Chess and Xanatos Roulette up to the Thirty Xanatos Pileup.
