I was going for the knock-out punch but you left the ring!

Sorry I typed before I thought it out.

But then I quickly remembered about the stuff before the costume party about him being a weight loss guru in Japan because how could I forget something I rolled my eyes at so hard?
But wait a minute....... he didn't lose the weight on his own!! He's a FAKE!!! Weighloss guru my aunt Fanny.

Man, we are DEEP in the rabbit hole now! No, what I was saying was that the popular public opinion at the time of Dazzler's debut was that she was extremely unpopular, although my comments are not universally popular with the forum's population and may not win me any popularity contests. That's all.

But really, I didn't say the popular opinion at the time was correct, I just said the opinion was popular, therefore, it's a fact that Dazzler was unpopular at the time, which is no reflection on her true worth.

Damn, I'm good.

Wow....imagine if Dazzler looked the way she was originally pitched....like a bald Storm in a Dazzler costume!!!!

Oy here we go again...... your 'therefore' statement is powered by opinion and ending in fact.....WTF?

For the record (considering this is the thread's true topic), I vote for no character to be killed off because I'm tired of characters being killed off. Not even Dazzler.

Wabbit season......duck season.......wabbit season.......duck season.

Amen to that....... too many pointless deaths at the hand of Ed Brubaker (my opinion not a fact or general statement concluding to fact) It seems the vogue thing to do to kill characters you didn't create early in your career at Marvel.

For those of you who hate wolverine, you should check out Uncanny X-Men annual #11.

I hate the character, but this was a great story. Unfortunately, it's everything that came after this that ruined the character for me.

As for which character would I like to see killed off...

None. There has been far too much of this in recent years. Moreso than in any other era. Not only this but the character deaths of the past actually stood for something. There was a great deal of meaning put into them and long lasting repurcussions. Unfortunately now, deaths and rebirths/skrulls/dreams/reality shifts occur far too often and with little or no meaning behind them.

Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooo, can I add I'd like Aunt May to finally die of old age! She's gotta be like 200 years old!!!! She's not Wolverine or Yoda, just go "night night" already!!!!
