Maybe they can catch up through Zoom, probably at noon, for a discussion about Dune, or even blast out some tunes! Better fix a date soon, or they might lose the room, and their hopes to resume will be sadly go boom - or even be entombed...

...one can only assume.

But wouldn’t leapfrogging to the instant before the Big Bang collide Doom head-on with Sise-Neg cornering all the universe’s magic to become an omnipotent God?

Nice Fox McCloud cosplay.

I guess JMS got bored of writing Captain America and decided to start writing random team-ups instead. Even the end of his Cap run was basically a Thor story.

JMS's first six issues of his Cap run were incredible -- one of the best Captain America stories I've ever read. Seriously, go seek it out if you haven't seen it. It's largely a flashback to pre-serum Steve Rogers and a motley gang of friends and allies trying to stop a Nazi plot centered around the real life German-American Bund rally at Madison Square Garden. It brilliantly and subtly establishes that even before Steve was Cap, he had a shield -- the community of people around him, who he helped and who helped him in a web of mutual kindness and care.

There's an incredible sequence taking place in multiple time periods simultaneously. There's Doctor Strange astral-projecting into an action figure. It's superb.

Then he finished up that story and ... man, I can't even figure out how to summarize what came next. But it sure wasn't that.

I knew from the cover, nay, the title, that I was going to love this.

So far, I'm not wrong.

With the 'why?' scene, Mr Straczynski may have outdone himself with a cringe-inducing Doom 'joke' that outdoes the boasting of his ignorance of winkles.
