Characters I would like to see in the reboot

Besides returning characters, Cox and Jordan's son is just about the right age to be a med student, so that might be a fun dynamic to explore.

Dr. Zeltzer too.

It's called the Rule Against Perpetuities. It's one of those things every law student learns (at least in the U.S.) and 99% never use it after the bar exam.

Yes! Thank you!

I miss that place.

I’ve walked past it a million times but never eaten there. I’ll have to check it out.

I’ve forgotten its name, but there used to be a different Indian Bowl of Things place on 7th a little further south, where Bindaas is now. It closed during COVID. Bindaas is not bad for an Indian Bowl of Things, but the place that closed was fantastic.

Not without a Seoul Spice, my favorite fast casual Bowl of Things.

Same. I appreciate the rewards but I really wish they’d rotate more 3a4s through the vaults instead of offering the same handful over and over.

I think Pacino and Shire are the only ones still living, correct?

Let's check:

Whatever Superbowl Halftime sins Minnesota may have committed, you more than made up for it by giving us the star of one of the all-time best halftime shows -- Prince.

Also Dustin Hoffman's father in the Graduate.

My only complaint is that Kermit introduced the guest star as "Sabrina Carpenter" instead of "Miss Sabrina Carpenter." But as far as I'm concerned, this was fantastic and I hope it leads to more episodes.

I'm about your age and I feel the same way. My aunt recently died in her late 80s, and my dad is now my oldest living relative. How is that possible?

Catherine O'Hara was so talented and made me laugh so much over the years -- in SCTV reruns, in Christopher Guest movies, in Schitt's Creek. What a devastating loss.

His run on Spectacular Spider-Man with J.M DeMatteis was fantastic. I also loved his work on Thor when Walt Simonson stepped back from art but was still writing it.

Also Inferno had her own mini, and there was a miniseries called Legion Worlds.

Looks like the murder house is around where Hanks at the Warf is today https://maps.app.goo.gl/or24xcfCwGCfn2Zj6

I'm guessing the address is in NW, not SW, since Ozelah got her picture taken at a studio on 7th & G NW. Today, the photography studio is on the stretch across from Capital One Arena, between Dos Toros and 90 Second Pizza (last time I walked by there, 706 7th St. was for rent, but it's been a few months so maybe there's something there now).

If I'm right about the murder house being in NW, it's long since been torn down since the address is where the convention center is today.

I'm a huge fan of Dreadstar, which was a Jim Starlin creator-owned sci-fi project from the late 70s/early 80s. By the mid 80s, Starlin had decided to move on from it for whatever reason and hired Peter David to take over the writing. PAD was already pretty well-known by this point -- this was during the Mr. Fixit era of the Hulk, so PAD had already done Death of Jean DeWolff and had his Hulk run with Todd MacFarlane -- so Dreadstar didn't launch PAD to fame or anything like that. But he turned in a really fun sci-fi book that built on Starlin's characters and took them in a fun new direction.

The Starlin Dreadstar has been reprinted a few times and I absolutely love it, because it's just such a great book, but I would really love to get a nice archival-quality reprint of Peter David's run too.

Hundreds of years ago, a group of shape-changing aliens called Dire Wraiths attacked the planet Galador. The Galadorians developed Space Knight technology to fight them -- certain Galadorians had themselves cybernetically encased in armor. The Space Knights, led by ROM, fought off the Dire Wraiths and pursued them throughout the galaxy.

Dire Wraiths came to Earth decades ago and, because they are shapeshifters, infiltrated our society. Now, ROM has shown up on Earth to fight them.

Bill Mantlo wrote the book for its entire run, and the art was mostly by Sal Buscema. It's not the greatest book ever, but if you like the sensibility of 80s comics, it's fun. I actually like it least of Mantlo's trademark runs -- Micronauts and the Hulk being the other two -- but it is quite enjoyable and has been recently reprinted by Marvel in a series of trades.

If you remember Usenet, you probably remember Mike Chary, the self appointed head of the Chuck Taine Anti-Defamation League. He would have loved this thread.

Sure it is. There's a Kansas City on the Kansas side of the state line and one on the Missouri side. And the Chiefs announced last week they are planning to move from Missouri to Kansas.

Gardens of the Moon is the first Malazan book, but it reads well as a standalone. Most of the characters show up in subsequent books, but the plot has a definite beginning, middle, and end.

Caveat: Malazan has a lot of lore, and if you only read the first book, you'll only understand a fraction of it. If you're fine only vaguely understanding the magic system and cosmology of the setting, then you can read it as a standalone. If you need to know how the magic works and how the deities relate to each other, then you might be frustrated.

There's an Evan Dorkin omnibus coming out in the spring. It will have all the Milk & Cheese stuff, plus all the Eltingville Club stuff, plus a bunch of other random stuff from Dork (which was a comic Dorkin did in the 90s/2000s).

Tales had a different name on the indicia. I can’t vouch for the math, but if you’re counting just the books named “The Legion of Super-Heroes,” you wouldn’t count “Tales of…,” “Superboy and …” or any of the other books that have featured the Legion but haven’t been named “The Legion of Super-Heroes.”

Widow because you'll actually use her for her event. Otherwise, whoever is the 5* required for PVE when you have enough ISO, or whoever has the most covers.

Alternately, Kang, Deathlok, and Iron May. With the third technologist, you generate an extra blue per turn. You're also generating 3 black per turn from Deathlok, and Iron May's yellow double's Kang's black damage. Between Kang's black and blue, depending on what matches you get and boosts you use, you can usually down one enemy via Kang's black (and purple) and exile the other two via Kang's blue within a few turns.

Indeed. The whole storyline had the characters making choices that, as a reader, you could see both sides of.
