Many James to choose from, but I decided upon this one.
I think restorative nostalgia is the number one issue with comic book fans.
A fine distinction between two types of Nostalgia:
Reflective Nostalgia allows us to savor our memories but accepts that they are in the past
Restorative Nostalgia pushes back against the here and now, keeping us stuck trying to relive our glory days.
That old crow came back today
Sitting in my window like a prophet
Out on the fire escape, to say
'Anger is just love, left out, gone to vinegar'
You wake up a stranger to yourself then you
Learn to live with her
The Crow and I share the same given name: Eric.
Close enough...
ETA: Is this too big?

And this is my entry.
One of them is Jim Hammond, the original Golden Age Human Torch. One of them is Johnny Storm, the Silver Age Human Torch. And one of them is Thomas "Toro" Raymond, Hammond's sidekick. Can you guess which is which?

First name: Wayne
Cute story: I used to have a roommate named Bruce, so of course we called our apartment The Batcave.
But whenever Bruce went away for the weekend or a holiday, I would secretly refer to it as Stately Wayne Manor.
Take my dreams, childish and weak at the seams
Please don't analyze, please just be there for me
I know threatening fellow members is forbidden and generally impolite, but that accursed song is now stuck in my head and I will have my vengeance.
