The book that consistantly outsold the X-Men in the 80’s-90’s and it could only be bought at a comic store vs a newstand or convience store. Oh yes the New Teen Titans who became the New Titans now just Titans.
The sidekicks of the Mainstrean DCU, Nightwing, Red Arrow(formally speedy), Troi(Wondergirl), Aqualad(yep a teenage aquaman), Wally West Flash(kid Flash), and adding members Starfire(yes she’s much hotter in the comics), Raven, Beast Boy(of the Doom Patrol) and Cyborg.
You’re a football star getting a full ride at a presitious college, about to be drafted by the NBA, you got looks, money, brains, and you’re humble; then the unexpected happens you are diagnosed with cancer and have your leg amputated. No more money, no more scholarship, no nba, and your “friends” are gone, you begin taking pain meds to ease the pain.
At the family cook out your whole family is killed by the Fifth Reich(supervillains with a nazis motif) all becasue your grandfather and brother where the hero known as Commander Steel, and Steel respectively. You do your best to help and get exposed to the blood of one of the villians, a villian who turns people to metal by tovuhing them.
Due to the exposure your body becomes living steel you can’t feel anything you don’t know your own strengh but miracously the exposure has the unusual result of growing a new leg for you. You are forced to wear a steel costume to damper your strengh. You are Citizen Steel

Boy, I sure hope when the real Steve Rogers comes back (I don’t believe for a second that it was actually the real Steve who got the sniper’s bullet) he goes back to the original and best costume. I’m one of those who REALLY doesn’t like Alex Ross’s take on the costume (Mr. Ross is the creator ot the “shiny” costume shown in Prof’s post).
The costume is OK for a stand-in like the Winter Soldier…but I can’t see Steve in it. Nope…just can’t.

You have to make a new account with Japan as your country of residence. You’ll have to bullshit some things like postal code, phone number, and city, and you need a second valid e-mail address. Takes about 5 minutes to go through all of that.

Man the covers of most comics should be in a art gallery…
We can thank the book the sedection of the innocent for that. Back in the day when comics outsold other forms of orint media. When that book came out the stigma of the comic being for children or shut ins(like me) became the norm.
So people can’t bring themselves to enjoy the art, same thing with bodybuilding in a way some people can’t look at a man’s physique and appreciate it they consider it gay

Okay, has ANYONE played the new Ninja Gaiden yet? I was a huge fan of the XBox original and the original games. It’s not bad so far, but I’m not too far in. It’s a bit easier than before, though.
