IIRC correctly, Shelton started off the year on fire last year, and completely hit a wall after his initial offensive explosion. Does anyone have any of his minor league numbers after he was sent down? Im curious if he recovered.

Vince gets every girl. It doesnt matter who or when, he always gets it when he wants it. Ari was hilarious this episode. His wild swing in mood was really good, and he really showed plenty of his character.

QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Apr 22, 2007 -> 09:00 PM) I had stopped reading for years also. Though when I was last into it I was reading all indies, aside from Judge Dredd. But recently I have fallen so head over heals in love with the Marvel Essential lines that I have decided to start picking up titles here and there. I just grabbed a few issues of Daredevil. I never gave any time to the old Marvels, due mainly to the outrageous prices on them. So these Essentials are friggin' awesome in learning what they did way back when. There is some serious cheese at times (cover to cover with Ghost Rider), but it's also fun seeing how they all changed. I'm reading volume 1 of Iron Man right now. Dear Mr. Stark is all ready showing signs of falling apart, and we haven't even made it out of the Tales Of Suspense years yet! I've been tempted to pick up the Zombie line...but am hesitant. Is it a full official run, or is it an excuse to make a graphic novel? Official run. And well worth the investment

QUOTE(FlaSoxxJim @ Apr 22, 2007 -> 11:24 AM) Yep. No clue. Quicksilver maybe, based on the silver hair? Speaking of Silver, did you see how Silver Surfer became a Zombie? Quite brutal. The Hulk was the reason why, and he didnt take it easy on the surfer

Captain Marvel, of course. The parent company's less than exciting namesake. Its too bad that they cannot come up with something decent for her in a storyline. She has pretty much been a cameo here, a cameo there, and every once in a while a storyline that ends badly.

Clockwise from top left Ironman Hulk Spiderman Human Torch Thing She-Hulk Wolverine Captain America Cyclops Rogue Nightcrawler Magneto is smashed in above Wolverines shoulder, below thing Im drawing a blank on the misty black costumed guy in the middle, and the guy under Things outstretched arm

QUOTE(BearSox @ Apr 22, 2007 -> 10:29 AM) I think its because of me growing up as a huge stars fan, that any thing other then the original isn't right for me... I hate change. Did you hate Episode 1, 2 and 3?

Another different yet brilliant view, Marvel Zombies http://dallas.caramelcomics.com/catalog/im...vel-zombies.jpg I say lets hear em' all. If you have seen something you like or dont like, then post it. There has been plenty of movies in this vein recently(King Kong, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Planet of the Apes, Lost in Space, etc)

However, nothing compares to the brilliance of Steve Odekerk as far as the re-imagined Star Wars Universe is concerned. See, i knew you would have something great to add. Now, if we could only get Dave to wander over and add some of his drawings.....

I didnt want to sidetrack the "Rate of Avatar" thread too much, so I thought I would post some of the SteamPunk Star Wars photos, as well as some other recently re-imagined comics and whatever else anyone wants to add. Im sure Flaxx has some cool stuff to add. Sometimes a new vision is good, these characters do need a fresh breath of air from time to time. There is also teh suck(Batman and Robin, anyone?). I figure there could be some good discussion from this The originator, Eric Poulton Darth Vader http://bp2.blogger.com/_fYpsA3iAQDU/Rf-N68...aderDesktop.jpg The Death Star http://bp0.blogger.com/_fYpsA3iAQDU/Rf-Nxc...starDesktop.jpg edit: My re-sizing is for sh*t. Im gonna post the links as well

QUOTE(FlaSoxxJim @ Apr 22, 2007 -> 08:59 AM) Hmm, just taking a wild guess here, but I think it might be some Star Wars fan art depicting Han and Chewie as they might have appeared had the SW saga taken place in Victorian London, ala' a Gotham by gaslight kind of thang. How'd I do? (Congrats, you made a Dave's longbox reader out of me a year or so ago). I knew it as soon as "The Pain" showed up They call it "SteamPunk Star Wars" Totally wierd, but it is very cool to a Star Wars dork like me

QUOTE(Brian @ Apr 20, 2007 -> 05:24 PM) As much as I like the guy, you are right. They could send him down to OVW like they did Paul Wight to get his attitude straight. The Big Show is off TV right now and in OVW because of an attitude problem? I thought he is on injury leave right now. And I was just reading on rajah.com that he is considering jumping to TNA as well(gag)

Ahhhhh Bush's true colors. Where is Kap when you need him? (I bet no one knows what mine really is. Hint:Star Wars)

QUOTE(Alpha Dog @ Apr 21, 2007 -> 10:32 AM) I find it funny, regardless of my political affiliation. For some wierd reason it makes me think of the STD-ridden Rabbit in "Meet the Feebles"

QUOTE(pale_hose @ Apr 17, 2007 -> 03:21 PM) your worrying about the sox wont win them a world series numbnuts...i dont know if you realize this, but this is JUST a blog...as fans, we can make up funny stuff to take shots at rival teams, we dont have to be serious and make up "scouting" reports all of the time...Yes, I want the Sox to win another World Series, but I also know that me talking about them istn going to do a thing... I dont know if you realize this, but this is a messageboard, not a blog.

QUOTE(JohnCangelosi @ Apr 19, 2007 -> 11:32 AM) OUTSTANDING! How many times did you have to rewind your DVD of A Few Good Men to get that perfect??? :-) www.imdb.com usually has specific quotes from movies on a seperate page. Its where I go if I want to paste a quote

QUOTE(Controlled Chaos @ Apr 17, 2007 -> 09:35 AM) I thought she was calling Eric all day and they were avoiding her calls. Then they decided to call back late at night in hopes she wouldn't answer and they could just leave a message. She was still there so Eric hung up. you are 100 percent correct, I rewatched the episode and I was way off. I dont know what I was paying attention to.

boy, this Mariotti article just wrote itself

Danks giving some quality bulletin board material if he pitches at Texas this year:

QUOTE(DrunkBomber @ Apr 15, 2007 -> 10:43 PM) The last two episodes were entertaining but nothing has really gotten accomplished. I was hoping we would have heard more about what move Vince is gonna do. I dont know, i think that Vince was trying to feel out his agent. He had Eric call her to see if she was working because she said she was out of the office all day, and Vince also mentioned that he wanted to make his decision on the movie she offered him while or after he was in Napa Valley with Eric. I think small things were happening, but Turtle and Drama stole the show. LOL, turtle prevented Happy Endings for drama.

Ari was great tonite, he really had a great scene when he saved Lloyd from Jay Lester. The entire party scene involving Ari was hilarious

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Apr 15, 2007 -> 12:38 AM) Rio will win. Now thats a true, cynical Sox fan for you.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Apr 14, 2007 -> 03:19 PM) We have a good chance. And I believe to compete for the actual games, we need to start some of the projects. We dont want you here anyways....... I would rent out my condo for the entire games at a premium and stay the hell away from the city for sure. what, no green?

Now to plan avoiding driving to Chicago for the entire summer in 2016......
