He's disliked, distrusted, or actively hated by a very large number of the people he's supposed to work with/ supervise/ whatever. At some point you'd think, say, Val Cooper would start to tell new Presidents, "Insofar as we want to maintain good relations with the superhumans-- or insofar as we want to save up pissing them off for important things-- you really need to find another portfolio for Henry, sir. I know he says he's indispensable. But I believe that if you call up Steve Rogers or Tony Stark, they'll tell you exactly how dispensable he is."Jacob T.

My all-time favorite superhero comic is Giffen/DeMatteis's Justice League, which is nothing if not a sitcom.Anthony Strandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15170406011301084809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28855039.post-92195354479157674002010-08-09T06:03:38.041-07:002010-08-09T06:03:38.041-07:00Caleb, I think you are the first reviewer I've...Caleb, I think you are the first reviewer I've run across to get that Lothi looked like Beast on purpose, rather than reading it as my inability to draw a variety of character designs.
