@MysticalMe337 @therightram This, OTOH, is perfect.

@MysticalMe337 My only comment is that the big D would _never_ admit to doubt about his choices. He may FEEL them, but would never say so.

He is, at the end of the day, all about Control. Everything flows from that.

@MysticalMe337 Yes, but it's a "blond character of the opposite gender who is a magician from another dimension who acts like a dewey-eyed innocent, amazed at what the hero can do, despite having years of experience." :D

@MysticalMe337 And the UNSCS (which is weird, because the United Nations doesn't actually have police powers anywhere) is a ripoff of WAND. And Turin sort of feels a bit like a take on early Clea.

@MysticalMe337 Knowing Elsa, she'd insist on it being Bloodstrange. :D

[DigiCom @_DigiCom_]

@616stephenvs I'm ace too, and I'm not sure if Turin is trying to butter her up or just glazing her. ;-)

(More annoyed by the villain of the issue, but I think I'll save that for Tumblr, where I have room to vent.)

@MysticalMe337 @616stephenvs @Foxos777 @SanctumBlog @House0fstrange @ruffalodotcom @chewiedanvers @Clealxth @vampyrebonez @FaltineBlazer @featvitan That's fair. I just wonder, given Hellstorm & Druid, what Warren's run would have been like if he hadn't been saddled with Bobbie Chase as editor. I suspect it would have been closer to Quinn than not.

@MysticalMe337 @616stephenvs @Foxos777 @SanctumBlog @House0fstrange @ruffalodotcom @chewiedanvers @Clealxth @vampyrebonez @FaltineBlazer @featvitan Oh, and I'd rank JMS several rungs below Aaron. Bloody Matrix fanfic....

@MysticalMe337 @616stephenvs @Foxos777 @SanctumBlog @House0fstrange @ruffalodotcom @chewiedanvers @Clealxth @vampyrebonez @FaltineBlazer @featvitan I'd rate Ellis higher, with the caveat that he only scripted his first issue and quit when Marie Javins resigned.

But it's a VERY strong first issue.

@MysticalMe337 I look at it like this:

The Vishanti are the College of Cardinals, appointing the new Pope in accordance with ancient doctrine.

Wanda is a schismatic who simply declared herself Pope.

And Turin is a Taoist who is wondering why these guys in fancy outfits have any say at all.

@MysticalMe337 Best I can do:

@MysticalMe337 @Jesko_pizza This is from New Mutants v3 #20. Stephen was in his "turtleneck & trenchcoat" underpowered phase, and Jericho had just been killed by "Agamotto". So nobody was Sorcerer Supreme at the time.

[DigiCom @_DigiCom_]

@MysticalMe337 I just want a comic with a competent Doctor Strange who isn't trying to regain his powers (again). Is that too much to ask? 😉

[DigiCom @_DigiCom_]

@MysticalMe337 My biggest problem with #8 is that Stephen isn't in it.

Instead, we get an entire issue of "Lord Strange", who has a completely different characterization.

As for the cliffy... *shrugs* We already know what will happen thanks to the solicit for #9.

@MysticalMe337 "You cannot pass," he said. The orcs stood still, and a dead silence fell. "I am a servant of the Secret Fire, wielder of the flame of Anor. You cannot pass..."

@MysticalMe337 Bonus: The 1st three also apply to Black Friday. ;-)

@616stephenvs "...having a skull for a face pretty much guarantees you're the bad guy..."

@MysticalMe337 If you don't have issues with Warren Ellis, I strongly recommend his Planetary, Transmetropolitan, and Injection.

From Grant Morrison: The Invisibles (but expect to have your head done in).

Also, Atomic Robo & Girl Genius. Both are long webcomics, but fully available online.
