LOL If the only good thing to come out of this is stopping another re-boot story, then yay. I get so, so, so sick of every 15 years people going "I dont know what to do. Oh I know, let's do a re-boot of x" "Yeah, that's great! Then we can sell all new stuff to all new rubes ( ... )

LOL. I agree with everything you say, including that the Romero films suck. I did not say they were good, I said that he knew what worked in his films and kept going from there.

And yes, the fact that it's his families getting the money is what pisses me off. They don't have a right to even filing this goddamn suit.

And yes, I know all that stuff is mine, LOL. But like I say, I know how to cover my ass now because of people like Siegel and Shuster. LOL.

"As someone who's currently in the predicament of trying to tell a story about characters in a universe without referencing the characters who were previously main characters in the story, I know that this is like rewriting the fucking bible."

BOY HOWDY to that!
