    Really, besides a few independent titles, you are not missing much.

    It was her death that triggered Banner's fall from grace that helped get him booted and tricked off this planet.

    Wait... sorry Logic. This is Joe Q's Marvel, an artist who is not a writer. My bad. It has to look cool and make no sense.
    Not to mention the fact that Betty should have become the Harpy again if exposed to gamma rays, but that's beside the point.

    Bzzt! it's like the TV Show, 7 days, but instead of 7 Days you only get 8 minutes.

    You need to read my post again. The Metamorphosis Odyssey is mostly the gathering of the characters and the Milky Way Galaxy's Destruction.
  6. More adds for me:

    Mage: The Hero Discovered


    The Metamorphosis Odyssey and Dreadstar



    If you read it all the way through to the end of the Instrumentality War Storyline, It's Jim Starlin at his cosmic best.

    Also, it looks like the results might be surprising. DC Nation tweeted this today:



    I'm hoping for one of the odder/funner members like Gates or Quislet. But it would also be interesting to see how Levitz would have to explain Earth-Man winning when most of the team hate him.
    Oh but Shady seems to be "coming" around.

    I took the quiz and came up with Twilight Sparkle as well. Which is probably good, as she's the one I liked best in the first episode.
    I took the quiz and got Rainbow Dash.
  10. I like to slake my thirst on this stuff.

    But for me, what really irritates me is using an incorrect word.

    For Example, on the message boards here, the biggest infraction I see is the use of the word "roll" when they really mean "role". I know some people will use it as a type of slang since you "roll" dice while playing Role Playing games, so I usually let it slide.


    But then again, That's just me.

    G1 was awesome for the stellar voice cast, honestly. Really only a few Outstanding episodes / storylines. I mean just to hear Frank Welker (Megatron), or Chris Latta (Starscream) doing their Villain monolougining made the series for me.
  12. even more important: the Green Lantern trailer will premiere with the new HP movie

    Lets say for the sake of the thread decent frame rate is minimum above 30 fps.

    So tell us if you have it maxed, and what your build includes (GPU, CPU, RAM, MOBO)
    Thanks.
    @ Maxed out setting

    GPU = nVidia 1GB GTX 460
    CPU = Intel i7 950 quad core @ 3.06 GHz
    RAM 6GB
    mobo = Asus P6TD Deluxe

If you eat fast, you don't feel full until after the meal, and then it's to late.

    If you make your meal portions much much smaller, and just eat them, and then DON'T eat more, you will start feeling full about 10-15 minutes after you eat a small meal. You can eat fast, just as long as your portion size is small.
    The big mistake a lot of people make with food is they eat til they are full, If you can learn to eat til you're not hungry anymore that helps a lot.
  16. Just caught this episode. Really like this show because they went back and took all the stuff that was hinted at in Scooby-Doo Where are you?, and all the stuff that they dropped in the later shows. (Specifically Danger prone Daphne)

    Hopefully both Scooby and Velma realize they are being selfish and can learn to share.

    We only have 3 episodes left this season, and hopefully we'll get a nice resolution to the ongoing mystery, and maybe some hints as to who Mister E really is.

    You also forgot the frumpy, non-sexy version of Tigra too. *sigh*
  18. What, no Agatha Heterodyne?

    or Gina Diggers?

    T'challa isn't king at the moment...

    Shuri is the Black Panther and ruler of Wakanda, chosen by the Panther god when T'challa was almost killed by Dr. Doom. Assuming this is part of his "Journey back"
  20. Well if they played the Star Wars RPG it might be this:

  21. Ya the only thing I've really liked about Marvel is the Marvel Cosmic books. On the serious side though, while I feel Marvel is creatively bankrupt at the moment, especially in their main lines (Avengers, X-Men) there are a few exceptions to the rule. (Captain America, The Marvel Cosmic books). Having been reading for 25+ years, I'm sick of reading characters who are stagnant, and are not allowed to grow as characters because an Editor or the fan base refuse to let the character move on. With Marvel doing the whole Mephisto thing with Spider-Man, and the X-Men with them jumping on every trendy bandwagon trying to boost up sales, and DC trying to relive the glory days of the Silver Age, I'm about fed up with Mainstream super hero comics.
  22. Here are two super hero webcomics that I follow.

    Sidechicks:

    Spinerette:

    Sidechicks updates once a week on Wednesday.

    Spinnerette updates sporadically.
  23. .....Can we please get Dimensional Portals for our Super Group Base?
