I usually like Breyfogel's work.  I did not like his work in BotD, thou.
I really don't think it is his style.

He may have been the original creator, but I really do not like his version
of Talia's birth.  I really thought that he did a sort of cop-out with it.
Barr, who I think is a competant writer, did a good job with the material
and should be considered canon.  After reading this, however, I felt that
this was a non-continuity story.  I really can't explain.  It is just a 
feeling.

Organization: Oklahoma State University Computer Center, Stillwater OK

Date: Mon, 21 Dec 1992 01:04:57 GMT


I've just been reading Hellblazer #61 again, and JC's quote:

"... He does me in now and he'll be eating shit for the rest of eternity."

reminded me of the discussion here on racm about Ennis' attempts to patch
up continuity with Gaiman's Seasons of Mists storyline in Sandman.

My question/gripe/concern is:

	If (as stated in Seasons of Mist) the "war between heaven and
	hell is over" and the angels Duma & Remiel assume they rule
	Hell, what's keeping the First of the Fallen (whoever he is)
	from claiming JC now? The FotF doesn't seem to be afraid of
	the two angels and is certainly willing to wage war on his
	brothers. Is he afraid that the Blessed Host will come down
	with the Heavenly Yardstick and smack them while admonishing,
	"Tsk-tsk. You should be punishing ALL of the Damned, not just
	this one! You're disrupting our neat and orderly Hell!"

	If (again, as claimed in Seasons of Mist) Heaven has openly
	declared the need for a Hell and, in fact, are even supporting
	it, wouldn't Heaven just wait till one of the brothers won and
	then mop up whatever psychic spillover there was? Or, at the
	very most, support one of them and get all of the untidiness
	over with?

Bon dieu, what a mess ...

ARRGHHH! So now, in addition to a bunch of Doombots running around, each
programmed to believe they are the real thing, we have a bunch of
alternate timeline Doom's, each believing they are the real thing.
As far as the 2099 Doom is concerned--Victor vonDoom would not where
a costume with cheesy spikes on it (unless they are functional which
I doubt they will be), and unless they show his eyes behind those
eyeslits, a lot of the characterization of Dr. Doom will be lost. Of
course, just MHO!
Another side note--I just read a Spidey issue where Baron Zemo II is
running around without his mask--I highly doubt Dr. Doom's face could
be worse than that! Yechhhhhhhh!

Hell, no.  No flames at all!

I meant to say "racially oppressed Caucasians".  Slip of the tongue.  I'm sure
that there are people out there who fall under that category, but, alas,
being a Lotus Land Canadian, I've never met one.

And I doubt that there are any racially oppressed Caucasians reading this.  
Jews don't count, as I don't see any oppression going on (in 1992) and any
that may occur isn't racially motivated, but rather religiously motivated
(I must assume).  And I doubt that there are any Japanese Caucasians out
there, either.  Perhaps the odd Hispanic, but Caucasians oppressing Caucasians
isn't racial oppression.

Any Dravidians out there?  No?  I think we've run out of options.  But then,
I'm no anthropologist.

My personal opinion:  I'm not offended by the ANIA ad.  And I can't possibly
imagine how anyone else could be offended by it -- unless they're also 
offended by Ice-T, Sister Souljah, and Ovide Mercredi, and have their hands
gripping Jesse Helms' midsection.

When did the indestructable cape return?  The last we saw of the cape is
the shredded bit being carried around by Lois after Supes was killed.
Superman's cape gets torn left and right--nothing indestructable about it.

The number 555-1212 is reserved in every area code for Information. The
reason movies and TV shows use phone numbers prefixed with 555 is so that

I sorta liked the Magic Sourcebook, too.  It missed out on a lot of the grandeur

Like Lance said, the footnotes are real nice.  I kinda found it to be a time-
