Heavens, no! Mr. Darwin is currently between jobs, as it were, but his
preferred haunts are Minneapolis, where he ekes out a living as a rock
musician brave enough to admit that he doesn't like R.E.M. He's also a
gardener of some ability.

For more information, you can buy his album, "Buddha Roadkill," which has
some of the most informative liner notes this side of "Venus on the Half-
Shell."

Rumors that Darwin has paid a visit to the Marvel Universe are certainly
unfounded at best, at this time.

	Graphic violence is another things that the CCA doesn't allow. Way back
when, in the X-Force/Spiderman "Sabotage" storyline, Shatterstar at one point
cuts out Juggernaut's eyes. The CCA wouldn't allow the original scene (which
showed the sword impacting with Juggy's face, and lots of spurting blood), so
McF had to redraw it into the "blood silhouette". (This comes from reading
Marvel Age, which reprinted both the original and new panels).

  It was an Alan Davis issue, I know, so it was probably one of the

I noticed that too (in Excalibur #low-50's, I can't remember).  That's the
issue that shows "everything you wanted to know about Phoenix."  Seems
that when Rachel was returning from our present to her present (after checking
out why Kate's jaunt through time was unsuccessful, the Phoenix force tagged
along for the ride.  While Rachel was still unconcious, Phoenix revealed
herself to Kate Pride and basically gave an account of her time with the
X-men from Kitty's time, which I assume would also include her stint as Dark
Phoenix.  That's probably where Kate came up with the words.  The issue
explains it better than I can or remember.  :)

    The FF are not mutants because a mutant (in marvel, DC, and Real
life science) is a living creature born with a genetic traits in their
DNA makeup differing from tose of either parent... This classifies
Beast, Jericho, Franklin Richards, Namor, albinos, and people with six
fingers as mutants. The FF and the vast majority of other non-mutant
heroes were give they're powers after birth by extenuating
circumstances(Marvel terms this a mutate as in mutated afterbirth), such
is the case with the FF, Spiderman, The Teenage "MUTANT"(falsly termed)
Ninja Turtles, Plastic Man, people disfigured by experiments, and people
suffering Radiation poisoning.
    Franklin Richards is termed a mutant because his genetic includes
aspects not present in Reed or Sue(telepathic abilities, precognition,
and the ability to mysteriously change ages with writers).  His
Mutantosity has nothing to do with the fact that his parents have super
powers, rather it is because they were hit with Cosmic Rays... That is
what Spider-Man spoke to the Beast about(his fear that the radioactive
spiderbite had affected the chromosomes that he might pass on to his
children).
    Second Generation "Marvel Mutants" are curiously often misdefined...
Scarlet Witch and Quick Silver are both mutants(assuming that thier
mother wasn't a superfast probability manipulator) because Magneto does
not have any genes in common with their powers... Syrin however is not a
mutant(by true scientific Standards) because she inherited her powers
from her father the Banshee.

The full form of "retcon" is "retroactive continuity", i.e. using a later
story to alter the continuity of a character, storyline, series, etc.

i.e., making Cloak and Dagger mutants (albeit mutated mutants) is
retconning; the Crisis on Infinite Earths over in DC is the king of
retconning.

YES! It is true!

The frustration felt by readers of the X-books is indeed universal!

But I have to say, rather redundantly, that costume must die! And no
bringing it back as a semi-sentient alien, either! (I can see it now...the
costume takes over a disgruntled ex-boyfriend of Lorna's, becoming...
FASHION RISK! Soon to star in his own 3-issue, holographic foil-embossed

Hey all.  I just got back from the comic store (Oxford Comics in Atlanta,
ripoff capital of the southeast).  They had the new X-Men cards for 
$30 a box.  I got a box, and in it found 1 complete set, all but about
9 for a second complete set, and some stragglers.  I got 3 of the 9 gold 
foil stamped cards (these are almost identical to the regulars, except for
a different caption and the gold logo).  I got one of the 3 'hologram'
cards (pretty nifty-regular artwork over a hologram background), and i got
the "super-duper" Wolverine hologram in the first pack i opened.  IMHO, it
looks pretty bad.  Maybe i just haven't found the proper light angle yet...

I was rather disappointed that i only got 5 of thirteen bonus cards, but i
suppose i'll buy a second box and take my chances on doing better.  How's
everyone else doing?

Actually it's hard for me to imagine someone *not* taking an interest in
