I almost ran off the road yesterday when I heard the news on the radio. No, war hadn't declared (can't remember the last time it actually was), nobody of import had been shot at and Michael Jackson hadn't risen from the grave. No the news that upset me was word from Hollywood that Disney had just bought Marvel Comics lock, stock and barrell for 4 Billion Dollars.

Now, you've got to understand, I've read Marvel Comics since there's been a Marvel Comics. I'm a card carrying member of The Merry Marvel Marching Society, I don't own ANY DC Comics cept' "The Watchmen" and that books British. God, the thought of Spidey, The Hulk, Capt. America and the X-Men in the hands of Da MOUSE!!! It makes me wanna puke.

Why such fear? I remember what 42nd and Times Square used to be like before Disney and City Hall made it safe for tourists... Pheh... I'll commit homocide first!!!!!
