Ahh, the old "well children in Africa are starving" argument. Actually, you could go with that since it is by "The Consumerist", they will be dealing primarily with consumer goods. As far as companies that primarily provide consumer goods go, EA is definitely among the worst. That being said, this poll has as much significance as the "who will be the next president of the United States" Internet polls, which if correct would mean that Ron Paul would have won the election with 90% of the vote.

When the new 52 was announced, Demon Knights was the title I was most interested in. There were a lot of DC's fantasy characters and others that could fit the title. Paul Cornell was coming off two well done comic book works KNIGHT AND SQUIRE and CAPTAIN BRITON AND MI13. Cornell in interviews was playing up the idea of an adventurous fantasy story lobbing around references to LOTR and Dragon Age. And then the book we got was a group of people stuck in a town being snarky to one another while the big bad went around killing everyone in their path (for no clear reason) while searching for some MacGuffin. Needless to say I thought it was terrible. After four issues I gave up on it; sadly it was the Paul Cornell who'd written some really poor Doctor Who stories, and not the one who wrote some really good Doctor Who stories who showed up. That said I'd agree the SoS 1st issue was bad. If I hadn't bought the 1st and 2nd issue together I'd probably have dropped it with #1. Same thing happened with the recent KATANA title; although in KATANA's case, I think the 2nd issue was actually intended to be the 1st and the published 1st issue was a last minute editorial edict comic. Mark Waid's 75th Anniversary Quiz:http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=44987 I only got #3 and #8. LOL, DK is like SoS then. It picks up rather nicely around issue 6, IMO. IIRC, SoS and DK are on the chopping block. I only got 1 right in that quiz...

I might have to pick up a Lantern book if that happens. I just hope the creative team is decent.

I picked up #1 of SoS and couldn't get into it, IMO Demon Knights is much better. Also, Happy 75th Superman!

I thought that the casting was good, but the script was terrible.

Hmm, maybe I should go back and reread the fifth comic in the series because I thought he did unleash his full power on the Hulk. Even going so far as to say (paraphrasing); "so this is what it feels like to finally let go". I agree about his inaction, it made me laugh that he spent 29 hours standing in his doorway trying to decide to get involved or not. isn't Sentry agoraphobic? Anyway, wikipediaed WWH, seems I was compressing it in my head. The satellite blasts that take down Hulk I was remembering as Sentry's doing. Seems they both spent their energy to the point of going to human form, then Banner just punched sentry out. Yeah the Hulk took down Sentry, after dealing with The X-Men, Thor, Dr. Strange, and a host of other heroes. Then again, this was a "Super-Hulk" who was stronger than any other Hulk, possessed Banner's intellect, and had martial prowess. Also, I never liked Sentry, too OP to get into. EDIT: Maybe we should take this discussion here. I hate to crowd a movie thread with comic book discussion.

Well that all depends on the Superman writer and continuity. Generally though, I would say Bruce Banner. IIRC, a kryptonian's intelligence increased steadily under a yellow sun, so Clark was a genius in certain continuity. Banner has always been depicted as extremely intelligent, and is on par with Tony Stark and Reed Richards, who are considered two of the smartest people on the planet.

If you need any advice let me know, I have 8 years of strength training under my belt. - Free weights only. Oh I'm good with strength training(I also use only free weights), it's just I exercised and dieted for several months to build mass and strength and now I'm trying to lose the belly that came with it. If you know how to balance decent toning with extreme fat burning, let me know.

This thread made me realize that I need to transfer photos from my old HD to a new one. Also I feel even more motivated to lose my mass building/strengthening weight after seeing Woldan's pics.

Daredevil was damn good this week.

It was in Lobdell's title, the only reason I knew about it is because it was shown in a BC article a few months ago.

I don't know, but the existing comics thread never got this good. I blame the OP's European bias. It shouldn't. The only radiation that effects Superman comes from kryptonite or a red sun.

Superman has been vastly depowered.Pre-Crisis on Infinite Earths Kryptonians could move planets (and in some cases, suns) around if they really wanted to. This they did with their hands.Post-Crisis Kryptonians are just, very, very strong but can't really move a planet on their own.Officially in DC vs Marvel Superman beats the Hulk (very controversial though). My guess would be Hulk wins in a physical fight on the ground, Superman wins if he can get Hulk into outer space (Hulk still needs to breathe, IIRC, Superman doesn't*).(*or holds his breath a really long time, depending on which version of Superman we're talking about although a few versions have had him using a breather in space).True, but the New52 also has seemed to have changed things as well. Recently Superman did the equivalent of bench-pressing the earth for five days straight and only produced one drop of sweat so......DC reboots huh. Also, the Hulk doesn't need to breathe, he has survived the vacuum of space before.

And society hasn't crumbled? Shocking!

It has been recommended to me several times but I have never watched it. Where could I watch it for free?

I caught the first of this season on iplayer yesterday evening. he's not Dr Who any more. He's simply Hipster Man, superhero. And the script writers seem to have resigned themselves to the sonic wand device. Trust me, this episode was a good break from what was otherwise a low-point season for the series.

I've had this stuck in my head for the last three days. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6rb13ksYO0s

Doctor Who was in top form last Saturday.

Now I wish that GD's title was "Resident Libertarian of the Obsidian Order".

It is posts like this that make me desire a "dislike" button for these forums. Dogs are superior to cats in every way, especially in cuteness.

I'm getting $600 back this year. Hell yes! Anyways, today I drank copious amounts of liquor and did some research for a paper that is due sometime between Thursday and Sunday. I work best when inebriated and on a tight schedule.

Don't worry, the legends of your escapades are saved for posterity. When some internet archeologist digs up those posts some day, he'll think 21st century internet was Sodom and Gomorra Ehhh, Sodom or Gomorra might be a little too family friendly for 21st century internet......

It is very good, but not as good as PoR. I have to fault FEA for some pretty big balance issues(counter and galeforce).

They wouldn't likely be classified as feliform if they had a lot of canid traits. The taxonomy is pretty clear. Have you ever heard of convergent evolution? In this case, it's cosmetic.At any rate, a hyena would be better than a dog in a violent situation, objectively. It does bear mentioning that I'm bothered by the... zeal of the OP's dog-centered desire. He does seem....... enthusiastic. I was a bit surprised(to put it politely) that he brought up romancing a dog(even if it was in jest). Some ideas should just not be entertained at all.

No doubt that qualifies as intimate knowledge. Especially intimate knowledge that doesn't get skewed by any sort of perspective biases at all. If I were good friends and related with people that lived in the uK while she was in charge and they said this whole trashing of her character was complete bollocks, I'm sure you'd consider my intimate knowledge to be roughly on par with yours. I didn't say that it was completely unbiased. Obviously there is going to be some bias, because Thatcher was an extremely polarizing figure. And sure, your intimate knowledge is on par with mine, just coming from different perspectives.
