So, they announced some guest authors for the AE, the rooster teeth guys and Scott Kurtz from pvponline. That's a good start, but I'd like to see:

Gail Simone
Peter David
Kurt Busiek (Marvels, Astro City, Thunderbolts)
J Michael Strazynski
Stan Lee (that would be a major coup...and positively surreal.)

Many others, I'm sure...

Geoff Johns and Neil Gaiman. Stan Lee is a overrated hack! Jack Kirby for life!

Someone beat me to Neil Gaiman and Geoff Johns, so I'll add John Ostrander, Bill Willingham, Mark Waid, and Mike Carey.

Oh damn Mark Waid! I am going to die for not saying that. Also, Ron Marz.

/die

Joss Whedon?

His stories are good, but i'm a great fan of his dialogue...they still make me laugh years later.

Ahh, great authors I’d like to see authoring AE missions:

Matt Groening (think more Futurama, less Simpsons)
Seth MacFarlane (but just once – otherwise he’ll repeat his jokes and get boring) [oh, SNAP!]
Stephen King (yaright!) – but he could do some stuff with scaring the bejeezus out of you, and also prison dramas.
Anyone from the Lifetime Network– because we just don’t have enough Man-hatin’ ‘round here. (I keed, I keed!) [Damn, and There went my Rep – Whoosh!]
Terry Pratchett. I say again, TERRY FREAKIN PRATCHETT. Discworld is one of the funniest books/series I have ever read.
“He thought about how it might be, to be, say, a fox, confronted with an angry sheep. A sheep, moreover, that could afford to employ wolves.”

And on an even lighter note,
Ernest Hemmingway: (stolen from book-a-minute, The Old Man and the Sea)
An old man [Statesman] catches a fish [Lord Nemesis] that's too big for his boat.
The fish gets eaten by sharks [Mako, the jerk.].
Then he goes home and DIES. [And States is OUT of the canon! HA!]

John Steinbeck: (also stolen from book-a-minute, Of Mice and Men)
George [Statesman]: Lennie, this is our big chance. Don't be stupid.
Lennie [Lord Recluse]: I love pettin’ purdy things.
(Lennie [LR] kills stuff by accident. George [States] shoots his dog.)

That reminds me of the time that you were acting weirder than I was when we remembered another time that something something unlikely and obscure.

Pffft. What kind of superhero MMO player are you? You SHOULD be arguing for Stupendous Man, Calvin's caped crusader alter ego. Spaceman Spiff is totally sci-fi. Get with it, man!



I doubt they could get Watterson, but I would love to see his approach. I rather wonder what the guy is up to now. I like that he quit instead of continuing to write far past when he should have (Peanuts and other comics show this issue), but it would have been better if he had published periodically when he had the ideas come to him. I would have bought any random Calvin and Hobbes books he came out with, that's for sure.
