While it's normal and acceptable for an internet chat forum to drift off into tangents, it would be wonderful if we could keep this particular, important thread on subject.

You beat me fair and square, B.!

Did someone say pull my finger?

Wow. I'm getting cranky already.

I liked this 4 issue arc back in the '70s, not sure what I'd think now. I wasn't crazy about Gaard though.

He's okay, but UnderwearOnTheOutsideMan was the best.

The handle was MasterCPU here. If you go to page 5 of this thread, BlowUpTheMoon posted links to some of those threads.

I'm pleased as punch to have picked up this TTA #44. This brings me down to 9 more to complete the run, and none of the other miscellaneous issues are bank breakers.

I think OW would be reasonable based on *that* pic; lighting can make a difference and maybe in hand I'd feel differently. However, given CGC's lack of PQ consistency, I could see it being designated OW/CR or even CR.

Our hobby is in the big leagues now!

Saw it last week with the missus, the son and his buddies. We all mostly liked it. I think the son and I both liked the first one better. I'm probably the most negative of the group. It was *way* too long and bloated. Some of the scenes really dragged on and overall they just threw everything in *including* the kitchen sink. I just don't understand why every superhero movie these days has to be "epic" length. It makes going to see one an epic commitment. And I really felt cheated at the end, as did many other vocal patrons at the theater. I avoid spoilers and had no idea it was only Part 1. Ugh. Enough already. Pare it down and just tell the story.

I was interested in seeing The Flash, but now see that it's 144 friggin' minutes long. WTH? I just sat through 136 minutes of the Spider-Verse last week. The first thing the studios should do to improve the genre is to start making average length movies again. Every single one does not need to be 2-1/2+ hours long. Going to a superhero movie these days is a time-consuming commitment.
