3. That appeals to me too

12. No, just a person...
with discerning taste that lives with an animator and comic book artist. I'm also not a 14 year old boy who likes seeing boobies drawn with a circle template and colored with lens flares.

15. To each his own...
I just don't dig Marvel. I don't like any of the characters. I don't like most of the artists. (With the exception of Wieringo on FF, and Allred on X-STATIX, Grummett on Avengers/Thunderbolts and Ramos on Spiderman). The story-lines are about angry, pissed off, or whiny people. An awful lot of Marvel characters are accidents with nuclear wastes or mutants. All they ever so is bitch and moan about how much it sucks to have powers.

I also believe that not one Marvel (or Top Cow while we are at it) artist has ever seen an ACTUAL naked woman.
