And once you're level 35, you can team with your super powered cousins from Paragon City in the Rikti War zone. (Also, many of the newspaper missions as presented in CoV are pretty non-judgemental about your ethics and character, should you want to experience some non-AE missioning.) Tee (and apparently Mental Maden) and I are of like mind when it comes to the original Terminator movie. I liked T2 well enough, but it didn't surpass the original, unless I rely entirely on big 'splosions. I might have enjoyed T2 a little better had I not known that Arnold was the good guy. It was certainly filmed in a way for us to think that Robert Patrick's T1000 was actually a human like Reese, and that Arnold was just another killer cyborg. By the way, is everyone up to date on the soon-to-be-functional super-sidekicking? Go read the forums, but in the future, characters will be auto-sidekicked up or auto-exemped down to match the mission level (SKs will still be at -1) without need of a mentor/partner. Exemped characters will still earn xp, but that's optional. Best regards...

Terminator 2. I never got the appeal of the sequal especially compared to the simple brilliance of the original. Totally agree with Tee on Terminator v. Terminator 2.

I should have caught that. I don't think I mentioned it on CoH (probably on ITB) but I went to High School with Jason Lee. I should post the year book pics..

Great cast guys. I always thought the ending to the Watchman book to be second thought, like oh crud how do I wrap up the story? I might actually watch the movie now to see how it flows. (Since it wasn't a kid friendly movie, I didn't get a chance to see it.) Chooch you should send Tee a 14 day free trial to the game... Tee may not play the game, but he’s easily one of the crew.

Alan Moore presented a script to DC based on DC's newly acquired Charlton comics stable of heroes, those heroes were then re-imaged into the Watchmen characters. Rorshach is based on the Question, Nite Owl is based on Blue Beetle, Doc Manhattan on Captain Atom, and I believe the Comedian on Peacemaker. I'm sure those more knowledgeable will correct me should I be wrong, but I believe Silk Spectre was not a literal lift from a Charlton character, but was inspired by Phantom Lady (a different comic property), and Ozymandias was an homage to several sources. By the way, it was very nice to have a CoH podcast to listen to as I went on vacation (missing XPXP weekend entirely) and then getting this cast as I transitioned from the end of my vacation to the back to work commute. Thanks for all that, Best Regards Pat, aka Fantastic Foe (author of arc #200411, Exploding Planet ( ugh, shameless plug.
