Yeah, that would be cool. I'd also like to see Cap and Bats go at it. I'll pick it up in trade. There's some really good indy stuff I've been reading. Right now I'm reading Alan Moore's 'V for Vendetta' which is fucking sweet (all things Moore are afterall). I really recommend 'Y the Last Man'--I'll bring down the two first trades over thanksgiving for you to read them. I loved 'Preacher' and 'Sin City'. Also I'm kind of getting into 'Fable,' but have yet to really commit to the series. 'Bone' is a quick and easy read, but it's basically an Image book--which means a whole hell of a lot of splash pages. I've been finding that indy books are a lot more interesting than superhero books--mainly because they're more story driven and less badass driven. Oh yeah-- and I have to mention 'Sandman' because it is the coolest series of all time. There series spanned ten-years with ten different trades. It is awesome, and more so it is Neil Gaiman. There's even a Sandman reference in 'American Gods.'
So I got the ROTK game on gamecube last week. It's pretty cool--an improvement over Two Towers. Enemies are still stupid and can be tricked into standing in flames, walking into barriers (where they can still be shot at). It has some great levels though--and it's multiplayer. The game feels epic--which it should. Gollum is a bitch to fight (and is wearing the ring, yet still visible. . . .) and there is no return to The Shire at the end--which is really a downer. The movie is going to be hardcore altered--which Peter Jackson will burn in hell for. Sauromon will not be in the third movie. Anyway, I'm going to class. Talk to you later.
