Man do I ever hate Judd Winnick. I hate MTVs The Real World, I hate Kyle Raynor, and I hate pretty much every comic I have ever read that Winnick wrote.
Enough of this ridiculous sanitizing of criminals portrayed in movies/comics; ever wondered why Frank Castle is always fighting the mob? Because movie and comic companies are afraid of portraying the REALITY that a disproportionate number of crimes in urban areas are perpetrated by African-American or Latinos, and choose to have their characters fight caucasian criminal enterprises like the mob or skinheads (neither group being as prevalent in American society as they were decades ago).
Look, I was having a discussion with my friend about why he's so god damned cynical about super heroes...and it's all because he read "Fear and Loathing" when he was like 14 (same as me).
Look, for me, Marshall law was always the touchstone that tons of comics strived for but never reached.
Any news on the Marshall Law Omnibus? Where the F is it? I'm tired of reading old Epic and Dark Horse issues and I need something of substance on my book shelf!!!
BTW, this is pretty much O'Neill's best work ever. And you forgot to ention Mill's epic runs on Slaine back in 2000AD.
But I'm talking the Hal Jordan who used to have silver streaks in the side of his hair. There was something dangerously sexy about the guy, kinda George Clooney-ish. He was older but girls used to swoon over him, and his costume never got old (until you got psyched for 5 minutes on Kyle Rayner's uniform before you realized he was a douche and that jerk ass Judd Winick wrote him for a hot second). Plus he's the only Green Lantern that O'Neill and Adams touched, which automatically puts him above all others.
Guy Gardner had the worst haircut in the Green Lantern Corps, hands down.
Good thing new comics don't come out until Thursday this week, huh?
Prosecuted for Child Endangerment?
I think he'll wind up penniless and imprisoned and have to be "Garbage Batman". He'll have to make his gizmos out of garbage, and work out of a bath house.
Deal with it, haters.
Does anyone remember "Cast a Deadly Spell", that Lovecraftian noir movie HBO put out years ago? I can't remember if it was any good or not.
You've got a lot of idiots in this world passing legislation and starting wars over a concept better suited to comic books than history and science books.

I mourn for his family and friends, but at least the guy didn't go like Vic Morrow in "Twilight Zone: The Movie"
