Manhunter is the shizz. Some of the best, most compact visual storytelling in the history of superhero comics.

"Jackson Browne was so powerful in the early 80's he could cause premature ejaculations."

It's insidious.

I love his defensive "You make it sounds so ominous!"

This is legislation that cuts across all ideologies.

@flirtycardassianwaitress:disqus I look forward to it!

"Somehow I thought you'd be taller."

I was quite pleased to see him in IM3.

God save me from people who don't recognize that if you don't test the limits of Rddenberry's ideals of human perfectibility, then it becomes so much dry-ass dogma and watching Trek becomes just as much of an ordeal as going to Church for those who don't feel the spirit with sufficient strength.
