    Well they are all hot. And no one in the super hero sex thread mentioned a single one of them.

    If you mean the new comic, well the guy who owns my local comic shop just said "Vaginas make ya crazy". I have yet to read it, but his blatent sexism means I have to buy it now.

    Literally everyone in that book is being a bitch this issue (well, bar one I guess), and they never exactly tell you why.

    Well, their last mission wasn't exactly a success, leading the demise of countless innocents...leading to Superman of all people to give them a major "pep talk" about how bad they fucked up. Now don't you think words like that coming from the top dog would sting...just a little bit?

    Actually, I just don't like Babs going into crazy obsessive mode again.

    Babs is pissed because Superman yelled at her, and because they failed to save so many people.

    Misfit is sad because she pretty much watched a girl die and couldn't do a thing about it.

    Huntress is pissed because Babs is ignoring the "real" Birds of Prey and is having her "part-timers" do the work, probably because Huntress failed the last mission.

    Zinda just drinks a lot.

    I think it would've been cooler if, in Gotham Underground #3, it was Misfit that knocked out the invisi-Spoiler instead of Wildcat. Charlie's always there, and Wildcat just seemed out of place.

    But I guess they don't want to introduce Misfit in other books yet (other than her as future Huntress in Teen Titans)

    Blink's been one of my favorite characters since AoA, but with her and Nocturne both retiring from the team I no longer feel the need to force myself to like the book. I haven't read this week's yet, but randomly adding uninteresting characters and dumping most of their good ones other than Morph...I'd be happier if they switched the focus of the book to Kid Omega's Exiles.

    I just really hope Blink either isn't gone for long or comes back up in another book, she was really the biggest reason I continued with Exiles.

    Seriously, I'm not sure if its a national chain or not but there's this place where I live that I go to called the, 'Peddler's Mall'. Its like some sort of super flea market and one of the booths in there is run by a guy who has the world's biggest collection of cool 80's comics and HORRIBLE 90's comics. Today I spent $6 and bought Millenium weeks 1-6, Mr. T and the T-Enforcers 1-3 (which Neal Adams and Norm Breyfogle worked on!!), and The Nicole/O.J. Simpson Story. Great deal!! Seriuosly man tell me some horrible books you want and I'll look for them.

    So I'm not the only person who's ever heard of the Ultimate Warrior's comic book.... "I WILL TAKE BACK WHAT HAS BEEN TAKEN!!!!" I did see some of Force Works so I can pick that up. What is X-People though?

    I'm now a fan of Angry Eagle because he's called Angry Eagle. Did you know in the Ultimate Warrior comic he runs a college called Warrior University and he throws a wheelchair into the sun?

    I saw another horrible comic you might like....well we all remember the Marvel Mangaverse which was alright for the most part. But before the Mangaverse apparently there was a line called Marvel Import and I saw a comic called X-Men: The Manga...it looked terrible and I read manga.

    The future stuff? Considering the ending to that arc, I doubt it. However, the preview only has some references and epilogue type stuff (well, aside from the Martian Girl thing). I thought the Ravager and Blue Beetle bit was great. The art...not so great. I actually didn't know who the old lady escorting BB was until they called her Rose and her eyepatch came into view a couple pages later.

    OK, after many recommendations, I'm reading Ultimate Spider-Man in trades and really enjoying it. I'm up to volume 5, and "outside" characters are starting to appear. What Ultimate books should I pick up to get a sense of the rest of the Ultimate world? Are any other Ultimate books worth picking up?

    what happened McKeever?

    You were doing so well. And then this shit comes along?

    What really gets me is that John's wasn't planning to leave the book, but daniel couldn't work on it anymore and he needed to clean his plate a pit
