I thought it was an anticlimactic ending to an erratic and unsatisfying
series.  The characterizations so strongly put forth in "Crawling From The
Wreckage" pretty much vanished after that story, while Morrison's "kitchen
sink" apporach to plotting the stories reached its peak in the Insect
Mesh/Kaleidoscope war, but often was merely irritating - all these ideas and
so many of them seemingly so irrelevant to the plot.

I enjoyed the series at first, but this final story I thought was
characteristic of the series as a whole:  Lacking direction, lacking
characterization, and ultimately rather tiresome.

I look forward to the new writer, who can hopefully put some focus into the
book.

   This change in Sue isn't because of her double.  This happened to her
in FF #369 when Galactus beamed all the heroes up to his ship and mind
probed them.  When he probed them, the Malice part of Sue's subconscious
rose up and they fought.  Sue beat her, and decided that the ferocity of
Malice could come in handy fighting against the Magus, so she integrated
her into her conscious mind.  And that's that. :)
  I don't see the point in making this change in Sue either, unless it is
just going to be a temporary thing, and she goes back to being her right-
minded family valued self.  369 or 370 was my last issue of FF, and I have
only been collecting them off and on for the past few years.  I have the
Doom storyline around 350 and I got the "I married a Krull" one.  After that
all White cover thingy, I hardly even give it a glance when I see it on the
racks.

Did Jay really outrun electricity? I didn't see the JSA in
question, but consider: It takes a little while for a filament to
heat up enough to give off noticable light. Jay wouldn't have to
outrun electricity to pull this feat.

That's not true; the story involved lots of time-travel.  It was the

Scott, I feel exactly the same way.  When my parents ask me about my comics,
they get the idea that I'm only in it for the money, or that I only buy 
collectibles for investment purposes.  I collect a book when it has either
good writing or good art _and_ good writing.  I cannot _stand_ when my friends
tell me they like Image "for the art".  Personally, I can't walk away from a 
comic book feeling satisfied unless it has a good writer behind it (which is 
why I stopped collecting McFarlane's Spider-Man, and do not wish to collect
Spawn in the slightest).  
When I went to TE this weekend, I saw so many young kids scrambling to buy 
the death issue and the trading cards, some holding four or five copies.  A
lot of people are going to be very disappointed very soon.  (BTW, if you have
an extra copy of the bagged ish, sell it _now_, because the prices will go up
rather quickly when stupid people think they can't find them anymore.)

Oops, found a couple more.

Page 5, panel one. "softly falling over the graves of the parents and of

"The Dead", which is contained in the collection _Dubliners_.

panel four.  "the rain still falls, falling over all of them,
joining them all, the living and the dead."  See above, re: "The Dead."

panel five.  The image of a river flowing out to sea is the last scene
in _Finnegans Wake_, and it symbolizes death.  Not a man's, as here, but
