    Except more, because there were only something like 4-5 Starmen. There's been 72 Iron Fists.

    there have been nine starmen, depending on if you count one of them as two separate starmen or just one.

    actually, i haven't been reading jsa, so there could be ten now. i don't know if the new one is one of the ones we know about.

    and if you count dr mid-nite, then there are eleven. and if you count pre-crisis batman then there have been twelve different starmans.

    I have this boner for Captain Universe.
    EDIT: That's the one from that weird mini-series last winter (2006). The Uni-Power took over various heroes for one issue each, which was cool. It was going to lead into a new one starring Gabriel Vargas, looking for the source of the Uni-Power's malfunction.


    wait, so is the uni-power permanent now or does it leave when "the job is done". cuz that will suck if vargas is fighting and the power just leaves him

    Yeah, idiot.

    It honestly didn't even occur to me that what happened would be a problem. Sorta like Bender or any of the Marvel Zombies.

    Meh, how many times has Cable - who should know these things - whimsically used various firearms to put sizable percentages of Deadpool's brain in places that aren't Deadpool's head?

    Besides, isn't Death still allergic to Deadpool or something?

    Still leaves when the job is done, but now its job is to serve its own interests, so it's sticking with Vargas.
    Especially since, don't know if this was mentioned here but it came up in the mini, Vargas is paraplegic.

    I like how Ellis slipped Bias Field Theory into Black Summer. It was a huge part of his graphic novel Orbital and it looks like it might play a large role again in Black Summer. I hope that Ellis' work doesn't diminish because of all the monthly (or regularly updated) series he's got going on. Black Summer, Thunderbolts, Doktor Sleepless, Desolation Jones to a point, and soon Astonishing X-Men. And i'm pretty sure i'm missing a few titles.

    I already think Doktor Sleepless will be a far weaker title than we were hoping, although he's got a lot of comics left to turn that around.

    I was Captain Universe once, back in the 90's. Hung out with the X-Men all of whom were extremely useless with the exception of Iceman. Rogue went crazy and almost killed Gambit, and I made no effort whatsoever to stop her till the damn Uni-Power started talking to me.


    Worst part of being Captain Universe? No freaking pockets.

    See, I'm hoping that Wade's powers work like an earthworm's. This will lead to the book being retitled Deadpool and Deadpool, with double the chimichanga jokes.

    I don't want to sound dismissive when saying this, but I feed Doktor Sleepless is his way of putting out a counter-culture Batman book without feeling like a fucking weirdo (Ellis doesn't like Batman all that much).

    I really just do not understand how anyone could think that part up. "Hey, if we get the president and give it to those evil bitches that're running around killing innocent people, the war will end!" Maybe if they were eight I'd believe they'd do that but they're meant to be in their late teens, NO-ONE is that stupid.

    Anyway, Blue Beetle is one of my favourite comics at the moment, I hope to god that it's not cancelled:

    You keep calling me that but I don't think it applies. I mean, I don't do anything eXtreme at all, I've never almost died in space, and I'm not strangely popular despite being an irascible fuckhead. If anything, that should be my nickname. "Uh oh, don't let Irascible Fuckhead see this." Just trying to help out.

    And those BB scans are pretty good.

    Well he's appearing in Teen Titans #50 (which BB #18 crosses over with) and then in October BB #20 is crossing over with Sinestro Corps.

    There's also two Blue Beetle trades out at the moment, Shellshocked and Road Trip, they're pretty awesome.

    Forget everything we know, its all about a race of feral-people killing each other over fur pigment. O_o

    I do hope Marvel will pretend it never happened, like that "teen Namor" reboot they had.
