I'm cautiously optimistic about Ted's 'role' in Booster's series. I'm not sure Johns will actually bring him back (I dare not get my hopes up) but I believe he respects and (as you said) likes the characters enough that he'll write a damn good story about. Johns is SUCH a fanboy, and I love him for that (even if his Teen Titans was rather dismal ( ... )

I'm usually very very cautious when it comes to stuff like that, never daring to hope, so my optimism when it comes to this series really amazes me. I think I just know that even if he doesn't bring him back, there still will be Ted and it's going to be good :D

I love Trickster and Piper in Countdown, I just wish that the writers would remember that James is a REALLY clever guy and not just some bumbler who thinks you can trust the Penguin of all people.

Yes but where is fun in that? ;) I think the writers really try to portray Piper as the sensible(r) one but you have to remember that it was Trickster who got them of that plane and he was the one against going to Bart's funeral (wtf, Piper?! o_0) I think each of them have a few issues of being clever and then the cleverness is transferred to the other.
It's the chain thing, I'm telling you, it's all because of that chain.

but I guess since someone would have brought him back anyway it's probably better a talented writer was in control rather than some hack a couple years done the ( ... )

Argh, so many typos in my previous post! Must remember to proofread!

I kind of like the idea of the chain leeching Piper and Trickster's intelligence...not literally but maybe because they can't think straight when so close to one another...yeah.

LOL, 'straight' *shot*

Oh, please, proofreading sounds so proreg.

LOL, 'straight' *shot*

*snorts* Yeah but I don't blame them, I bet they went mad when they saw all those fruits.

Ah, the not-so-subtle gay jokes, how I love therm :P

And people, you truly have no idea how much I want him to kick current Venom‘s ass.

Why is there no love for Mac!Venom? :( Am I really the only fan?

I liked him better before Sub-Mariner #3 *grumbles*

kirke_novak August 18 2007, 06:38:22 UTC

He did a horrible, nasty thing to fangirls all over the world! Namor! He deserves to die!

*stabs Mac!Venom repeatedly with a fork* Die! Die! Die!

So, which one, left or right? I'd give you both but I need the other one to pay for Marvels
