The last batch of reader questions for this round...
Jeremy has a really good one: "Best decision-maker for the indecisive...?
a) flipping a coin;
b) rolling dice;
c) magic 8-ball;
d) other (please list)"
Oh, wow. I don't know. Let me break out my twenty-sided dice and pick A if it lands on 1, 4, 9, 12, or 18; B if it lands on 2, 8, 11, 15, or 17; C if it lands on 3, 10, 16, or...oh, forget it. I choose D, which is cockpunching a right-wing conservative and basing your decision on whether they land on their knees, knees and hands, side, or back.
Sam wonders "What is the deal with The Hulk and how did you come up with the idea of doing a blog for the guy?"
I worked at Upromise when I started both blogs. As TV's Spatch can tell you, there were long dry spells and the bosslady seemed to have a real issue with sending people home. Bored comic book nerd who loved how Toyfare presented the Hulk + The Internet. You can see the convergence happening, can't you?
Maggie wants to know "Were the first four entries of Hulk's blog grey?"
Maggie, I must demand you marry me. I do not care about your prior commitments.
Christina demands: "Which are better, Canadians, Brits, or Russians?" and then amends it with "Wait, make that Germans instead of Russians."
I emailed you the "real" answer. I like them in approximately the same order you list them. I have known great examples of three, bad examples of two.
Mark H is curious about my appellation: "What's with the "beaucoup"? The French tongue, it offends me."
Underworld had an album called Beaucoup Fish that I love to pieces and I changed my BBS handle to reflect that. It had previously been Sappys Curry, based on another Underworld song. Someone called me Beaucoup Kevin one day and it sounded better than Fish Church, so...
Doug has a trifecta, like before:
Who's more annoying: Jimmy or Rick Jones?
Rick. Jesus, Rick. Gah, I hate him. Jimmy's one of those characters I'd love to write.
Which is your favorite Avengers lineup?
The Roger Stern run in the 80s had a great lineup of second-stringers with a few of Marvel's best - Cap and Thor lead the team with people like the Wasp, the female Captain Marvel, Hercules, etc providing manpower. While not a die-hard fan of The Avengers, I think it should have a balance between the Big Guns and the Guys That Couldn't Hold Their Own Book.
What's the real ending to the Matrix series like?
It's not all solved with punching Agent Smith, I tell you what.
