I tried all the #1s...dropped 25 of them right away. I tried real hard to like them and am now down to 6...JLA, All Star Western, Aquaman, Flash, Deamon Knights and Northlanders. (well 5 cause northlanders does not count)

I use to collect 20+ titles and have done so since about march 1986 ( I remember this as issue 238 of the JLA was the first issue I bought and started collecting comics regularly after this. needless to say I have 20,000 plus comics now (going on 80 long boxes...uuug!) I just don't think the new stuff is interesting anymore and even though I get 30% off my comics and free bags and boards I just don't enjoy the new stuff. I have recently been looking over a lot of 70s and 80s back issues and am buying complete runs of comics I have never read or owned. its amazing that I ...

I will probably grab the first issues of each, but whether or not I continue from there totally depends on the stories and what direction the characters histories have taken.

As a long time comic fan and lover of DC comics I must say....I will be passing on these books all of them

No he cannot grow to any size but neither can Hawkeye without the help of Dr. Pym's chemicals. On the other hand Oliver Queen's powers, if any, remain unknown. It has been rumored that Green Arrow may in fact be a metahuman. The Department of Extranormal Operations has a classified dossier on Queen, wherein they indicate such a possibility, but as of yet, this information has not been confirmed nor denied. Besides you said Hawkeye not his Goliath persona , in any event size doesn't really matter, I am sure like me you have seen heroes defeat other characters bigger and more powerful than them all the time in both Marvel and DC Universes.

Ok I see you what your saying but does green arrow have the ability to grow to any size possible ? Hawkeye does lol

That is a tough one I am gonna have to say it would more than likely come out as a draw. It would seem after reading their skills and abilities in the DC Database and Marvel Wiki that they are both equally accurate with a bow and arrow and various other things as far as Acrobatics, hand to hand combat and ability with other weapons.

Wasn't it part of that USA network cartoon block that had the american megaman, the american streetfighter, wing commander, and then this on?

I just saw this cartoon on actor Nick chinlund his imdb profile he was Billy bedlamb from conair & toombs from the 2nd riddick & and the animated movie well he did a voice of Quan Chi so it says.
I completely forgot about this series then remembered that thay used to show it on Sunday mornings on USA network here in Hawaii when I was like 14 or 15. I gotta catch it again on YouTube.

I don't think the show lasted very long as it was towards the end of the MK fad.

I want Kidd Video, Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors, Bionic Six, and The Adventures of the Galaxy Rangers to be remade. Those were some of my favorite toons back in the 80s.

I want a better TMNT cartoon. I want one that is closer to the comic. I hated how there was never any violence in the cartoons while in the first pages of the comic people were be chopped limb from limb.

First of all, I want more 200x motu, I know predictable but seriously that show just ended as it was getting warmed up and there was no actual ending, it just ended!??

Would like to see some old school stuff like danger mouse and batfink re done but I don't think either would have the same charm.

Bravestar would be awesome, wonder if they'd tackle drugs like the old one did,. ,"spin!!, must have more spin, spin is fun!! ...

Well said man, well said!!

Yeah thats possible but sadly playing it on the wii just isnt the same as playing on the 64. I think I might go through my closet see if I can't find my 64 and games.

Maybe they'll eventually come out for the wii via the nintendo store. I know I'm getting a wii for the 8 and 16 bit games and the later systems as they release them. I miss the Phantasy star games back before these new turds. I miss the quality Final fantasy games, the quality (ps1) front mission games. I miss games that had more storyline than graphics.

I'll go slow so as not to lose you in the "twists"

Ben was told he was a clone, but that the real Peter had been released. The "Real" Peter turned out to be a clone, the "fake Peter, then calling himself Ben" turned out to have been the real Peter all along.

See, the Jackal had cloned Peter and wackiness ensued that almost got the Spider-Man books canceled due to loss of readership ultimately leading. Marvel considered using the "Ben Reilly" angle to replace Peter to increase fandom and while it drew a ton of attention, it got too complicated and lost fun and readers started dropping the series left and right. ...

Haven't read anything from the clone saga since I was really young but if memory serves the whole Ben VS Peter as to whos a clone and whos real is very compicated and there really isnt any clear defined answer. But I believe there were some implanted memories to make Ben believe he was real.

anyone have an answer

Aside from all the wonderful things you guys said, I have a few comments on the movie.

1. The part where Magneto disables Professor X, kinda sucks cause in the comics Magneto used a spear (right??). That was so much cooler!!

2. Professor X should have been bald after the first use of Cerebro. LOL imagine James McAvoy bald =)) ...

I saw X-Men: First Class a few weeks ago and just thought I'd toss in my two cents. First off I've seen all the X-Men movies and I've been a fan since I was kid, you could say I know the characters pretty well. I really enjoyed James McAvoy as Charles Xavier and Michael Fassbender as Eric Lensherr. Their friendship really made this film. I would've preferred that film focus more on this, it would really give the story some weight. As it stands it was good but again it could've been excellent. Some of the characters were unnecessary (Angel, Darwin, Riptide?) and just added to the flashiness of the movie which it could've done without.

Overall though the movie was quite enjoyable and probably my favorite entry in the X-Men franchise. It had a great 60's feel to it which I really enjoyed. I ...

I enjoyed it. I liked to think of that team as sort of the Beta team Xavier puts together because he needs to rather than the team he chooses later on. Mags and X were really perfectly cast and played in this flick. Great performances from both actors. The beginning stuff with Magneto before he meets Chuck I could have watched all day long.

Was a little irritated at Moira McTaggert not being Scottish and Banshee not being Irish. (Especially since she was already Scottish in the turd movie) but not so much that it was distracting or anything. I felt the Angel girl was a complete waste of time and space. Ooo, she has bug wings and spits fire balls? LAAAAAAME.

I kinda liked Bacon as Seabass Shaw, but I don't think they did his powers right. To my knowledge, Shaw converts kinetic ...

Shouldn't this thread and the IC thread be in the Off Topic forum since they have nothing to do with Action figures?

Yes and it's pretty fun. All the rules are over here. http://www.figurerealm.com/forums/viewt ... 6&start=15
