    You don't really need a program.

    There aren't nearly as many people here as there are on the other forums, so if you just open a separate e-mail account and hold onto the e-mail with their address in it and the confirmation e-mail they send you after you notify them of their Santee, you should have everything well in hand.


    Also, I only brought it up because the other forums have already got threads up.

    I have a question. What exactly is a "telepathic affair" and what does it entail? I never read the issues with this involving Emma, Scott, and Jean from X-Men.

    Are there any good comics about fighter pilots from WW I, II, or anything around that era?

    It started out fairly innocently, Scott was feeling left out by Jean and Emma offered to council him with psychic therapy sessions, but they started to develop a clear connection. He justified it in his head by thinking it was just in his head, and they hadn't actually "done" anything but clearly knew he was doing the wrong thing and kept it all secret from Jean of course.

    The shit completely hit the fan when Jean not only catches them at it, but Emma had at the time chosen to appear in a Dark Pheonix outfit... pretty funny actually :)

    Not long after that (I think it wasn't long anyway) Jean bites it, and long story short Scott and Emma hook up at the end of Morrisons run, but after Scott is given a little nudge by future jean (told you it was a long story).

    Yeah, I've gained bits and pieces from Wikipedia. I always liked Jean, but Emma's a decent fit for Scott. I hope, if/when they bring her back next year, they find a way to keep her around without making her stupid strong or powerless.

    War is Hell: The First Flight of the Phantom Eagle (by Ennis), Enemy Ace: War in Heaven (by Ennis), Light Brigade (by Tomasi), War Stories (by Ennis), and Weird War Tales (by various talented contributors) are all good places to start.

    Which Ennis do we see in those books?

    I like his serious stuff fine, but his attempts at light-hearted (but no less violent) storytelling always leave me annoyed.

    His writing on his war books tend to be much more reserved than on stuff like The Boys, MK Punisher, or Preacher.

    Sergeant Rock and The Haunted Tank are both available in Showcase/DC Archives format, if you want some of the older WWII books. DC did a whole bunch back in the '70s.

    It was found and posted in a D&D thread entitled "Religion ruins the study of history," but nobody seems to know where it came from. It has been a long time indeed since I've been 'in the loop,' so to speak, when it comes to comic books, but this looks very Rob Liefeld to me. Anybody?

    Does anyone know where this image is from?

    (spoilered for h-scroll)

    I just found it hidden away on my harddrive and I'm not at all sure where it came from. The only thing that I can remember is it was a piece of promo art for...something. I guessing it probably involved the multiverse somehow. I'd say Arena, maybe, but the only characters there that were in that were two of the Batmen.

    I'm quite stumped.

    Ah, many thanks. I don't know who Ed Benes is, but apparently, Rob Liefeld taught him everything he knows (which isn't saying much). I'd be shocked if Liefeld didn't do the lettering himself, as those word bubbles and sound effects bring back a lot of memories...

    Road to Damnation and Trail of Tears are good, both by Garth Ennis. Daniel Way was writing the Ghost Rider series, I think Jason Aaron is now? Someone who knows more about Ghost Rider could probably tell you for certain. I remember reading the Lucifer arc, which I think is Life and Death of Johnny Blaze, and liking it, suprisingly considering it's Daniel Way :/ I don't know too much about anything older than that.

    The first trade of Way's run, Vicious Cycle was really good. The rest of his time on the book was somewhat less so, but still readable.

    Aaron's run so far has been pretty cool, although a little odd in places.

    While technically true, Jason Aaron is one hell of a hobo king.

    I just can't get into it. Which is a shame since it seems to cover some of the same ground as the DC Hell which is being trampled to death in Keith Giffen's criminally overlooked plot to realign DCU magic. I was into it a long time ago, I guess during the last time it was good going by "in the last 15 years" but it got buried under other comics.

    no bale, Jason Aaron's Ghost Rider is pretty much the only time a Ghost Rider book has ever been good.
