Ha....every time I've had to speak to a manager at a restaurant, it's been for the exact opposite reason. My wife or I ordered a medium rare steak/burger and the meat came out greyer than an elephant's ass.

- Firefly's here.....and you have to chase him in the batmobile.

Clone Saga
I stopped reading all Spiderman halfway through the Clone Saga. And never read new Spidey from that day forward all the up until Ultimate Spidey. Now I'm kind of curious to go back and read it tbh.


That's exactly what happened to me too. Clone Saga literally killed all interest I had in comics for probably a decade. I eventually dipped back in a little around the time the Ultimate Marvel stuff came out. Recently I moved to an area where the public library has tons of trade paperbacks and I've been slowly catching up on a bunch of stuff.

The "redistributing the pain" line is in OP's article; Sideshow here is ascribing racial motives about harassment that I would not. But the tactic was to have this impact parts of the city that are normally sheltered from the violence and conditions on the south side, in the hopes of generating a larger response.


The "redistributing the pain" line has been all over every article about this thing the Tribune and Sun Times have run for the past week. I think the fact that they're choosing to "redistribute the pain" in the whitest neighborhood in the city (both demographically and symbolically) instead of the Loop or the Michigan Ave. makes their intentions pretty clear.

So, you have no proof...

Also worth noting:
- Lincoln Park Zoo is free, and awesome. Good place to kill time during the day.
- If you want/need to try deep dish, Pequod's in Lincoln Park is your best bet.
- Malort is revolting. Do not let anyone talk you into taking a shot of it.
- If you go to the Wiener Circle after 10pm, the staff will curse at you. It's expected and you're allowed to curse back. Do not order a chocolate shake.

It feels like everybody in here is underselling the hell out of Vision. He doesn't have the offensive power to do much to Superman, but with intangibility and density control, Superman's going to have a hell of a time doing much to him either. Seems like the ideal power set to "tank" Superman while Thor or Scarlet Witch get their shots in.


Vision is melted in 2 seconds. Superman moves on.
Scarlet Witch is strong but Superman can KO her before she does anything. He's not THAT weak to magic if he can fight for 10 minutes with Captain Marvel.

Dr. Strange is the only one who can threaten him.


Two seconds? If you're talking about the movie version only, I'll give it to you, but the comics version has taken shots from Annihilus, Thanos, the Phoenix force and multiple Hulks and kept going.
