Daredevil Villain, Spider-Man has enough great villains he can spare a few of his for a good cause.

Whilst I agree that DD's rogue's gallery is somewhat lacking, I cut my teeth reading the old MARVEL TALES reprints, so for me, Wilson Fisk will always be a Spider-Man villian, and as such, I vote accordingly.

The fact that Pym, or should I say the Pym character, didn't have his/its own book allowed Roy Thomas to play around with Pym in the '60s Avengers and do things with the character. For example, Pym's almost-breakdown in the second Annual presaged his eventual metamorphosis into Yellowjacket. Other writers have played around with this since... for better or worse.

I'm merely a fringe fan... no disrespect meant to Kurt Busiek, but I picked up the  "Volume Three" Avengers in the late '90s initially just for the Perez art, and I must say that the sequence revealing that Ultron, this amoral murdering machine, was based on Pym's brain patterns was quite something.

re: Kingpin.  He's a Daredevil villain to me.
Kingpin: Daredevil = "Respect": Aretha Franklin.
Sometimes stealing something is Just.  So.  Right.

Thursday, 10/23 toss-up: corn on the cob or corn, uh, not on the cob?  (Yes, I'm off my meds again.)

On cob.

Almost totally unrelated story; when my wife and I were still dating and
living halfway across the province from each other (myself in Brampton,
her in Sault Ste. Marie - look it up), I was watching Mike & Mike's Xcellent
XCountry Adventures (still don't know why they didn't find a way to stick
an 'x' in 'adventures') on MuchMusic one day and they were at the St. Joe's
Island Corn Fest (see, if you'd Google-mapped the first two you'd already
be ahead of the game on where St. Joseph's Island is) and saw her on TV.
She was hanging around one of the barbecue/kettles areas with some
friends, just uphill from the show hosts, which meant that I could only
see her on screen from about the waist down.

So when she called me that night I asked her how CornFest was.

"How did you know I was at CornFest," was her shocked and amazed
answer.

"I'd recognize that ass anywhere," was my reply.

Indeed, still to this day, whenever I think of corn on the cob I think of my
wife's derriere in those incredibly tight, faded blue jeans.

I love corn.
