Considering how regularly I've been taking a certain 250km drive lately, I
think teleportation would come in quite handy.

I agree with Al, also the astral thing leaves a helpless body laying somewhere...

To the best of my knowledge Xavier and Dr. Strange's astrral projections work the same (in my minds eye I picture them passing by each other, with a curt astral nod, as they go about their astral business). Xavier might have an edge in that he seems to have avoided the "helpless" angle (though being wheelchair-bound he has his own vulnerability). Plus, Xavier can be visible or invisible while Dr. Strange seems to not have that option. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Anywho. Astral projection for me. I'm already helpless in this body; I'd at least like to be able to catch a free movie every now and then.
Sunday 2/22 toss-up: better copycat hero - War Machine or U.S. Agent?

it's hard to think of USAgent as being a better anything, but then - i have no fond memories of War Machine at all, so there you have it. (incidentally, i think of both of them as double-hand-me-down heroes - "Hey, you can be Iron Man/Captain America - no wait, give that costume back, and use this OTHER one i have in the closet" - rather than copycats, per say)

You always seem a topic behind, like you're posting from the center of

I echo Troy's sentiments. I don't care for either one, but I dislike USAgent the least. The funny thing, is I really like Jim Rhodes, but I cannot stand War Machine.
