I am sick of bleeding. Been on cholesterol meds a while. If I'm the least bit careless with a saran wrap box or an emery board, it's like I lost a knife fight.

Agreed. We also miss out on cool surprises when the next ep drops and cleverly hands us something we didn't expect.

One last thing on the Desilu productions. If you watch TOS and the original M:I, they used *a lot* of the same guest stars. That's beyond the Nimoy/Landau cast change. I don't know why. I don't think...

In the novel, didn't Troutman kill Rambo?

She also greenlit Mission: Impossible. Remarkable woman. If you haven't seen it, Becoming The Ricardos is well worth your time.

If Captain America didn't create a divergent timeline by going back to Peggy in Endgame, it means Steve and Peggy were playing Younger Steve in Winter Soldier. That included Peggy faking dementia and...

I prefer the Alliance spacecraft design in Firefly to the design in Serenity. Yes, they looked like highrise space condos, but aerodynamics don't matter in space, and it was highly original.

I could see something like Booster Gold's original concept working, or Witchfire from Busiek's Power Company.

Depends. How comfy are you with juggling nitroglycerin?

My toes can find an otherwise well-out-of-the-way very solid bit of furniture no matter how much attention I pay to my walk.

I usually can't come up with a clever line in the heat of the moment,...

I loved Cliffhangers! Always a big Dracula fan, and I had a thing for Susan Anton (as did most heterosexual pubescent boys of the time).

Wonder Woman.

This is a tough one. By and large, I think her powerset would be unchanged, the real differences would be in Wonder Woman's motives and fine nuances to her backstory.

It depends...

Batman having a partner

Marvel's Khoshu. Moon Knight was all kinds of cool, partially because where his powers came from (if he had any) was ambiguous. Then, the source grew a beak and started talking

Hey, hey, hey buddy! Optimus Prime is an *awesome* name!

Idiot? Yes.
Timid? Probably not.

The whole point is to separate the personas. That's not just to explain why Milk Toast McGee is not recognized as Captain Awesome. It's to speak to what each of...

Superman.
There are elements I can see sticking: A human-looking alien raised by rural foster parents with a strong sense of responsibility and humility
An incorruptible moral compass. Not a...

It largely depends on the audience at which the character is aimed. If it's your typical comics fan of today, you're probably going to get something rather different than what would land with a...

I remember Masquerade. Good concept whose time had passed. IIRC, Mission: Impossible was originally intended to feature more guests selected for the team during the dossier scene of each episode with...

When I was younger, if there was one animal superpower I could mimic, it would have been the Peregrine Falcon's flight (or maybe the Squirrel's agility). These days, as middle-age appears in the...

Haven't read a post here, but I'll be back. It's the next issue up on my reading of old DC!

I've never seen the film, but have heard the story. If memory serves, it was one of the few times the US had to send military forces to bust up what was, in essence, an equivalent to the gangs...

Fascinating!

Hot Springs, AR had a similar rep. It was an open city among mobsters, and more a resort than anybody's turf. Gambling and booze were illegal, yet rampant. Most other crime was at a...

Sokovia. When you heard the name in the AoU film, you knew the locals were in for a bad day.

X-Men 150: Magneto erupted a volcano in the middle of a Russian city in retaliation against a missile attack by one of their subs (which he also promptly sank).
