i want johnny to come back, but to have a blue flame
What was that line from Sue all about?
Bit of a naughty thought going on there?
I felt the same way about the line too but then – for me – Sue is just so damn sexy without even trying one gets mixed messages.
Why do comic book companies always claim that “this is the issue that will change everything”? The main reason I now read lots more manga than American comic books is that comics never change. Okay, Peter Parker may somehow sprout four extra arms, or Superman might get killed by Doomsday, or Doc Oc may fall in love with May Parker – ew, just about the creepiest even EVER in comic book history – and Bane may snap Batman’s spine, but you know that within a few issues everything will go back to the way it was before. Even if the temporary change made for much better storytelling. Manga, on the other hand, usually features a finite storyline, with the characters changing over time. When a character dies, it’s usually permanent, when a character gets married or goes through some other life-changing event, it’s permanent. None of this, oh, we have to get the character back exactly the way he’s been for 70 years by the end of the issue crap.
That said, I like the above suggestion of bringing the Human Torch back with a blue flame. They could rename him Methane Man, and the side effects of the blue flame – a distinct “methane” odor, opens up endless possibilities for humor.
