Originally posted by Sixswitch So what you're saying is that you prefer Star Trek, then? ;) Incidentally I really rate New Frontier too, although I've only read the first two books. How many are we up to now? I should track down those two, then start reading the rest in order. -Ss If you can find t...

I enjoyed this more than 'Infiltration' (but that's getting better now). I liked the other series too. Totally shallow and predictable but fun in a 'bubblegum' sort of a way. But did I miss something... Megatron is being disassembled and then later somehow he's in gun form with CC as well. I thought...

Hmmm, I didn't get all the parts but I thought it was pretty good. Stretched out too long at 14 parts but I like the spidey team up stories (Round Robin is my fav) and villain team ups....
Especially second stringers.
Is the trade out?

For current stuff, Avalon comics - http://www.avaloncomics.co.uk/
For silver age, incognito comics - http://www.incognitocomics.co.uk/

I've not used the web for Incog but their shop service is very good so I'd imagine it carries over.

If you don't have broadband, accept that you will lose any auction that takes place friday to sunday. Look for midweek finishes as they tend to attract less attention (people gotta work you know!).

Sinister (and Apocalypse) deserve the kind of mockery played out in UXM. The Hellfire club can always have new members. Personally, I'm glad they haven't overused the sentinels. Is Mags overexposed? Maybe. But he works in a way no-one else does because he's the mirror Xavier in all respects. They ar...

Re: Most Beautiful Woman in the World, QUARTER-FINALS - inc. Round 2 Results

Eliza Dushku (although Tru Calling on Sky3 almost made me change my mind)
Nathalie Imbruglia (Salma's moustache puts me off)
Jessica Alba (Sigh, if only I'd watched her cat fighting Katie)
Tia Carrere (The original and still the best)
