@OhSoyJu As someone named DJ, who is a guy, I really hate that.  Also, I think the name is awesome .  There should be more characters on TV named DJ.  All of them should be named DJ.  DJ Soprano.  DJ House.  DJ Mackie.  This show will be the best show on TV, if only for the character's name.

To Beat Cobra, We Must Think Like Cobra

On Sep 22, 2008 11:44 AM

"To beat COBRA, we must think like COBRA."

Comic Sales: Nobody Knows Anything

Crisis Crisis: Don't Blame Didio

On Jun 23, 2008 11:45 AM

I find DC characters to be more complex in a way that rewards engaged reading.  Marvel character are, by and large, easier to get an handle on in a single page recap.  DC tells big stories using larger-than-life concepts as metaphors for real life situations.  Marvel uses real life situations.  I enjoy that extra level of complexity, but then I read Shakespeare for fun. Wh...
