The kids'll LOVE it! Right, Quesada? They must be paying Stan Lee a lot of money not to come up there and kick your unoriginal, inept ass. And you're lucky Simon &#38; Kirby are both dead. I'm glad they're not alive to see this mishandling of their creation. Comics-They're not just for kids anymore. In fact, they're not for kids at all.

Let's see, it's a terrible idea that'll tick off a lot of people and will go down as a low point for the character despite selling a ton of copy. Hmmmmm, yup, that's a Millar idea.
