I'm glad I'm not the only waiting for this. Spreadsheet exporting, forced chemistry, and critical hits and misses... I'm at half-mast right now thinking about it.
TEW 2010 Developer's Journal for those who are interested
There are a few members older than Dan and myself. Off the top of my head, I believe Tom Deja and Derrick Ferguson are two of them.
Others include GoFlash and Methuselah.
Bill Hicks, as fantastic as he was, is the 2-Pac of stand-up. He's had more albums released when he was dead than he when he was alive. That being said, you can't tell me that his rants against authority from damn near 20 years ago aren't still applicable to authority today. It's an interesting indictment into just how little as a race we've progressed in 20 years.
Yeah... when Ric Flair (whom has probably the worst pattern recognition skills of any human being ever) sees that you are becoming the new WCW, it's time to change directions.
The only good Ewok is a dead Ewok. Preferably marinated in a fine Corellian Brandy with a Spice rub, slow roasted over an open fire for 45 minutes to release all the teddy bear juices.
I can hold my silence no longer. I fucking love Rebirth. It's one of the few trades that I have gone back and read multiple times. My knowledge of Green Lantern at the time was limited to my step dad's GL/GA trade and the one issue that crossed over into Reign of the Supermen, and I still had no trouble following along. Everything was explained to my satisfaction, the retcons not only made sense but added to the overall story, and all of the characters felt real (or as real as a story involving super-powered beings, power rings, and the living incarnation of fear can be). I put this right up there with Joss Whedon's Astonishing X-Men run as the best comic book story I've ever read and gave me a man-crush on Geoff Johns. Yeah, Van Sciver's gets a little wonky (especially with Sinestro's head), but it enhances the story being told for the most part.
I'd probably put Christmas Vacation, A Christmas Story, and the original Miracle on 34th Street ahead of it actually.
Seriously, you'd put Randy Quaid, a plastic leg, and the princess of pretension over, "Yippie-kai-yay, mother fucker,"?
