You are scum.

How dare you do this to me.  

This will require a complete rewrite, and I really did like reading about
Sig Lad and Acton Lord.  Now this twist really puts a damper on it!  It 
sounds like the CrossOver queen has Louise Simonsonized you already!

Oh how the mighty have fallen.

Now that I understand I am most completely dropping your comic!
Blech!

P.S.  Can Dave save his comic before the readers threaten to 
LYNCH him!  (Hee Hee Hee!  That's a good one!)  Or will he continue making
heroes that really sound most putrid to the braincells.  Or is this posting
a clever little ploy, by one of his many oponents!  Hmmmmm...
