Black Panther in the comics

Rating: 64/100

Outside of Christopher Priest's run, Panther is honestly not that interesting.

A classic. It should make an ESPN Top 10 list at some point.

Slott's Spider-Man run is... okay? It has good moments here and there, but overall, I've never been drawn deeply into it.

Assuming you mean Chris Claremont.

Rating: 18/100

Terrible at dialogue. Just atrocious. Cringey and laden with cliche. He has moderately interesting ideas but they are laden down by utterly melodramatic and sophomoric writing.

Rating: 89/100
The Riddler is a fantastic foil for Batman; he's a better detective than Batman is, and therefore when he competes, he wins. And if he beats Batman, there is nothing Batman can do about it. It's nice to see the Riddler glean some of the respect he so richly deserves in the DCU proper.

Rip Hunter's chalkboard

Rating: 96/100

One of the greatest gimmicks to generate fan interest ever. EVER. I think it will be impossible to duplicate. I fondly remember the first chalkboard in 52 with great affection. DC also used to get big artists to make these two-page spreads as advertisements with a bunch of random details that hinted at what was to come.

Rating: 96/100

Not only a great writer, but a generally interesting person in real life, as well. Of course, Gaiman's primarily amazing for his work with Sandman - and most people don't realize that Sandman was like his tenth choice of a DC franchise to work on.

Stadium Arcadium

Rating: 100/100

One of my top five or ten albums ever. Definitely the Peppers' best. Something about Frusciante's final collaborations with the group really works. The guitar provides such a unique texture to the music. Peppers have still found a way to evolve after his departure, of course.

Rating: 100/100

One of my favorite games ever. The tone of the game was always tinged with just enough darkness to keep my uncomfortable at the right times while still luring me in with some places with peace and serenity that allowed me to be lulled into a false sense of security.

Tidus (FFX)

Rating: 43/100

Not a fan. His dialogue is poorly written and the character seems incapable of learning or reasoning. He's very much a static character placed into dynamic situations. Ultimately, if I am to compare Tidus to the great titans of literature - the characters of a Hemingway or a Dickens, I find him lacking.

The British Empire

Rating: 87/100

I mean you could argue that there were atrocities in every non-white territory that left long, painful scars on a variety of countries that were founded in the 20th century, but let's just focus on the part where prim and proper wealthy white folk enjoy midday meals and discuss minor gossip in veiled undertones. That's what Britain always was about.
