  1. Iscariot is the superior organization.

    A. It's the oldest. Something to be said for staying power.

    B. It's members will die without hesitation to achieve its goals.

    C. Alexander Anderson is pretty much Alucard's equal, if not his superior, one on one. Presumably he acquired this ability because of Iscariot technological development.

    D. The Hellsing Organization has had multiple instances of high-ranking treachery, Iscariot's biggest organizational trouble is just that their leader got a little over zealous.

    E. Even more disturbing is that Hellsing is actually using Alucard, which must be seen as a desperation move. They employ what they claim to exist to destroy. Conflict of interest anyone?

    E. Millenium had to go into hiding for over 50 years because they couldn't get the job done the first time.

  2. Not entirely true.

    From Wiki:

    Only a few select episodes have been released on DVD by Disney. So far there are no plans from official release of season box sets. The DVDs that have been released are:

    The Ultimate Villain Showdown released 30 April 2002 during the run of the Spider-Man movie.

    Return of the Green Goblin released 29 October 2002

    Daredevil vs. Spider-Man released 11 February 2003

    Spider-Man vs. Doc Ock released 29 June 2004

    The Venom Saga released 7 June 2005

  3. Aww...I got completely lost in that Iron Man issue. I was hoping you would tell me what was going on (who was the dude who sent the Spymaster? and why?). But yeah, I didn't really enjoy that book much either after the opening sequence.

    Anyway, enjoyed as always.

  4. I still find it funny that one of G4Tech TV didn't even know enough about her own computer to keep her tits of the internet.

    I find that highly unlikely. If you look at the images she posted on her blog (which, presumably, is why she took the pictures in the first place) there is no reason at all for her to be topless for those shots.

    Also, she did a shoot (non-nude) for Playboy's "Hotties of TechTV" or whatever the next month, so I'm pretty sure she didn't have a huge problem with it other than the obvious embarassment. Or maybe she did and did the Playboy thing to capitalize on it. But she also had a running column in Stuff magazine, so I'm going to go ahead and assume she's fairly comfortable with it, at least enough to use the situation to her advantage.

    Plus, one could argue it was a bug in Photoshop, as later versions crop the thumbnail as well.

  5. They also produced more of the 60 GB model....so yeah. Hardly a "good sign" that it sold more, since there were more.

    Here people are paying the homeless to camp out for them. I hope these people die.

  6. It's so loved because every issue is self-contained. Yes, there is a bigger storyline running throughout (RE: Superman is dying from sun poisoning), but you don't need to invest in four, five or six issues to get a complete story.

    Plus, it's just fun, old school Superman (i.e. challenging the gods, Black Kryptonite turning Superman evil, etc.).

    I've never been much of a DC fan but I do like superman. How many different forms of kryptonite are there?

    A lot.

  7. Sorry 'bout the confusion, but I meant during his leaping and flipping scenes.

    Ehh...still.

    Definitely in his red and blue suit.

    Again, it depends on where they're going with the symbiote. If it's technological in nature, I don't really care if it makes his motions too fluid and looks unnatural, because it should, at the very least, be clearly different from regular Spidey in some way other than the color scheme. The symbiote changes his character in nearly every way, it doesn't just enhance his abilities.

  8. Anyone else feel Spidey looked a little to digital? Hopefully they'll clean that up in the next six months.

    Yes, and no. The scene with the flag? Yikes, yes.

    The symbiote suit? I don't know. Depends on the origin they use for it. If its a natural thing, then yes it was too digital. If it's an alien he yanked from some machine accidentally (like the original symbiote) then no (since it took Peter himself almost a year to figure out the symbiote suit wasn't synthetic).
