Hell, man...

I am willing to pay $10.00 Canadian (that's about $7.50 US) for as many 
copies of the bagged edition as anyone's willing to part with.  I'm also
paying $4.00 Cdn (that's $3.00 US) for the non-UPC newsstand edition, and
the same amount for any Doomsday appearances/crossovers, and part 1 of
Funeral for a Friend.

HERE'S a chance to more than double your money (have no illusions that I
won't double-triple my money within seconds of receipt of the books).

Just FYI for anyone who will be investing in the Superman Death Doomsday cards

I found out today that there are *two* different prototype cards - one has
a (00) at the top - this one included in the poly package, and the other has
only a single (0) - this one I got at a local comics store free along with a
black R.I.P. pin, you know the kind with the little thingie that folds at the 
top.

	My computer isn't particularly bright, and my patience is
remarkably limited, so I hope you'll forgive me for just pulling
in threads and talking about them without actually re-posting the
threads....

	I'm pretty sure Ember meant it'd been six years since she'd
been to Sorrow's End, not that it'd been six years since she'd *lived*
there.  But since I don't have the comic with me, I'm not positive.

	It looked to me, in one of the fight scenes, like Khavi was
fighting on 'our' side (the Sun Villagers' side, that is).  Any comments?
I liked the bit in the healing scene where Yun was trying to attack -
which Go-Back was it, Chot?  I think so.  I want to know if Mender -
or anybody else, for that matter - told Skywise he's got a daughter.

	I think Windkin is as big (mature, whatever) as he's going to
get.  Savah noted in #2 that he took after his mother in looks and 
build...I keep expecting him to get taller, though, as he ages.  

	Speaking of which...okay, let's all go to Poughkeepsie and
tie down Richard and Wendy and tickle them mercilessly until they
tell us how long the Wolfriders *do* live.  I think they've got to
be good for longer than a couple millennium...although I don't know
*why* I think that.

	And last (or almost) - does anybody know what the extra art
in the HY collection will be?  (I'm going to *have* to get a hardcover...
what a dirty trick.  *grin*)  Guess that's all.  

SaSW,

Okay, with all that out of the way, this whole {discussion}, in addition to
being mildly amusing, has seriously piqued my curiosity.  I know so little 
about how this marvelous system of ours works, and if someone's willing, I'd
like to know some whys and wherefores that this issue has brought up:

1 Mr. Cowling has stated a couple of times that, if occasion allows/warrants,
  he will issue a formal CFD and CFD, then try and get the LNH banned.  
2 Pro-LNHers have stated a couple of times, in response: "No, you can't do 
  that. . .free speech, I don't care what Any vote sez, yadda yadda yadda."

Who's right?  

If there is a formal vote, does majority rule apply?  This raises some other
interesting questions: how far does this go?  Drizzt's singled out Vertigo,
I'll try to be a bit more ridiculous: suppose I decided I didn't like any
comics with the color ochre in them.  If I issued a CFD/CFV and got a vote
that went my way, would it go into the charter/FAQ/Bill of Rights?  Would
people care?  Are we a republic, a democracy, a benevolent dictatorship, an
oligarchy, what?  

I can see arguments supporting both sides of this, and I'm just wondering 
what the actual fact of the matter is.  Email is fine, but I think it's 
worth posting.  Please, no "I think we should. . ." replies.  I'm wondering
about what the actual policy is that we (supposedly) *have* to abide by. Thanks.

I doubt that -- I also see no reason why the 40-whatever thing
would have been contrived.  I responded by e-mail, that the whole 
LNH thing is crap -- I saw no reason to post that to the net.  Just
because a lot of articles are posted on one subject doesn't mean a
lot of people read or enjoy it.  I, for one, added LNH to my

As someone else has pointed out in mail, since this brouhaha began I
haven't seen a single LNH post slip by the old "LNH" in the kill file.
This may be all that was necessary, a bit of a reminder that the "LNH"
in the header keeps everyone happy.  With this, and a _friendly_ email
to anyone who forgets, I don't really see where anything more is
necessary.  It's certainly the least conflict and effort.

  How can there be an "off" topic in a misc group? Seems an oxymoron to me...

Yup. Ran between Prog 287 (23 Oct 82) and Prog 307 (12 Mar 83). Writer
was Gerry Finley-Day, artist Alan Davis. Reviewing it after ten years,
the story hasn't dated much, though the idea of replacing a prisoner's
surname with his sentence in years always seemed a bit strange. (Now,
let's see ... Bruce 15, Bruce 15, Bruce 15 and Bruce 25. Better call
you Bruce 15 just to keep things straight ... :)

I'm sure Alan Davis has contributed more to 2000 AD than this and DR &
Quinch. (Surely a Judge Dredd or two :) When I have time, I'll peruse
my collection - but don't expect a quick answer; that's a lot of paper.

	Hey! Could various people out there in net-land summarize
whatever coverage Superman's death receives in the media? I no
longer have cable, nor do I get around to reading multiple newspapers.
I am kind of assuming that this'll get mentioned all over the place:
Entertainment Tonight, All Things Considered, MTV, etc. Would some-
body be willing to collect all these summaries and archive them?

Sweeney Todd, a barber, kills his customers and makes meat pies out of them.
There's more, of course, but that's a good start.

Hey! You're not doing the horsie noises!

BTW, aren't Dr Denton's jammies with feet?
