Maybe you're not a romantic ... I actually really enjoy some romance comics... I just have grown weary of DC's insistence that the Batman/Catwoman relationship is the greatest, most interesting thing to have ever occurred in DC history. Where superhero-involved romances are concerned, I preferred the Batman + Catwoman relationship more than the post-1973 Peter Parker & Mary Jane pairing, the latter never selling to me at any point.

I’m reading FF 269 on , the second part of the Byrne run. He needs an inker. There’s lots of blank backgrounds and the figures are more cartoony than I remember.

Once I get access to a time machine, I'm travelling back to 1992. I'll then create my own comic book — Xtreme Cyborg War Tumours. Xtreme Cyborg War Tumours will be about a team of tumours with atrophied eyes and hundreds of teeth granted sapience through cybernetics, with impractically large guns grafted to them; at least one of the Xtreme Cyborg War Tumours would be a breast tumour, and she'd have breasts of her own, which would house a rocket launcher each. Each issue of Xtreme Cyborg War Tumours would have a glow-in-the-dark lenticular scratch-n-sniff foil cover. The first issue of Xtreme Cyborg War Tumours would be #0, with each issue of Xtreme Cyborg War Tumours following being negatively numbered; eventually there'd be a special issue #1 of Xtreme Cyborg War Tumours; the only difference between it and the regular issues would be every page would be a splash page turned on its side. After a decade or so, once Xtreme Cyborg War Tumours has made me a gazillionaire, I'll buy the wig Kevin Sorbo wore as Hercules and have it framed and mounted on my wall over my mantle.

Yeah, you're well into the dodgy-art territory there. Still some nice covers, but he phones in the art for the last couple of years on his run. He just wanted to earn the most he could by doing everything on the book, and the editor didn't have the balls to call him out on it when his standards plummeted. He needed more than an inker- he needed a penciller to work from his layouts.
