It was a few years back, and I was on a gymclass, sitting and doing nothing else than what you do when you sit. It wasn`t my turn to do anything. And so it wasn`t either for a couple of guys that I really didn`t, and still don`t like. Oh no! Did I say something bad!? Well, maybe I merely didn`t like one of them. The *******. I wish that he dies a terrible, long and painful death. Maybe a few hours lasting, in some storage room, fearing. Also, I wish that by that point he wont have any friends who would have to feel terrible, since they lost him. Oh, why I didn`t like him? Because he was another bully. In my case, he said things I didn`t like. I wonder if there will evr be a time whn any of my enemies, who I`ve spoken not-so-greatly of, will someday apologise me. I would feel a little bad, wouldn`t I ? Well, none of them have done so. At least not at this point. Oh well, let them keep those apologies that they wont give me. I hate them. I don`t want to see them nomore, even if I will. And that makes my memory all the more intresting. But you wont read that, `cause you`ve already stopped reading.

I sat there, and the guy I hate(d), said something like this:"That first issue of Donald duck (Finnish version) of this year was really good."

That issue had the story by Carl Barks, called "The crown of a mayan ceaser". Or something like that.

So, you now see that even idiots may read great comic-stories, and like it.

I don`t really care if you didn`t like my rant. If you don`t understand my own idiotism, it`s your bloody fault.

So, this time, I`ll write about the villains. I like villains. But, that`s not the point here.

I`ll write about villains evolution, right now. The guestion is:

Have the villains really gotten more evil?

Lets take for example, Dr. Octopus, `cause he`s great.

At first, he looked like that. But once again, that`s not the point. The point is, that these days, Doc Ock is ready to kill those who oppose him. Or carry out his plan. Or sometimes kill someone just to make Spidey feel bad. Or if the one he`s gonna kill is Spider-man. These days, he wants to rule. He also is actually, wellmannered sometimes, these days. That`s all that he is these days.

In the old days (60`s - 70`s), he:

-Was ready to kill to carry out his plan, was ready to kill Spidey and was ready to kill anyone who`d oppose him. He just pretty much never got the chance.

-Wanted to rule. The world, to be exact. Or the world of crime.

-Was wellmannered, especially to Aunt May.

So, in the end, Doc ock has become only slightly more evil, since he has become more insane. And now, he manages to kill people, `cause he gets the chance more often.

What about Norman Osborn?In the 60`s, he wanted to rule underworld. He was at first not prepared to kill, but then he got angered with Spidey, and was ready to kill him. And others. But then, in the 70`s, he got really insane, and killed someone close to Peter. Then Norman "died". But instead, he was very alive, and orchestrated a plan involving a bunch of clones, to make Peter really sad, and in the end, really dead. After that plan had partially failed, and he had caused MANY of those close to Peter/Spidey to die, he became even more evil. He decidated his life to the destruction of Spidey, for a few years. Then, he decided to become the most dangerous human man with no cosmic powers, on the face of Earth. This happened during "Dark Reign". Then he fell from evil supremity of his, during "Siege". Now he`s a little less powerful, and is the leader of a gang of criminals. And once again, he is out for Spideys blood. And power.

So, has Norman become more evil? Yes.

So, have the villains become more evil in time? Yes, they have. More or less. If only two examples aren`t enough to satisfy you, you can think of many others by yourself.

Or maybe a third volume that collects all the remaining issues. What do you other Viners think?  
 
Oh, and a Plastic man chronicles series by Jack Cole too! 

Hey, you probably have noticed how much the word viner resembles the word winer, right? It`s actually fitting to point it out, `cause we wine about comics so much.   
 
Update: Hmmh, it seems that you don`t think anything concerning this. Bah, the heck with it.

To two exactly. One has all the terrible ones, the ones that I alredy have, and those that belong to a bigger story. That`s the one I wont get. The remaining one has all the remaing ones. Or then again, I could buy the trades that have those stories. Maybe I`ll do that. 

This is a stream of consciousness-story. You`ve been warned. 
 
It was an afternoon. Frankel Escado (who`s last name use to wheelbarrier before he married Crisill Escado) was blogging. He blogged about things that no one nice enough wanted to hear, like how all the (censored) immigrant black dudes are (censored), and that Kanadians are (censored). He had exactly 11 blog posts like that, and it`s a wonder that he hadn`t been banned a while ago. Up until that afternoon.  
When he decided to publish his newest blogpost, he noticed that it was impossible. He had been banned from the site 7 minutes ago*. So stated the e-mail that he had got a while ago, but he what hadn`t noticed. Frankel sat in his chair. He stared at the computer screen, and only word he said, was: "++++." Then he started shouting: "You +++++ing ++++++++! Why did you do this!? I only amused people, and told the truth about those "#¤¤%%&¤%%, and that`s why you dare to band me!! ¤%=+?#¤#"3¤%674%!!!! I`ll kill all of you! Kill, I`ll +++++++ kill you all!" And so on. After shouting for about ten minutes, he sat in the chair, his posture crooked, his eyes radiating with burning hot hatred. He stood up, walked down stairs, and started to watch tv. "Oh well, I`ll start another blog in another site tomorrow." He mumbled ( while a racoon ate icecream in tv, saying that it`s the best icecream she ever ate, `cause it`s a Bingles-icecream ).  
Crisill walked out of the door 1 hour and 49 minutes later (while Max told Jennifer that he will always love her, in the reality show Love in the scale). "Hi. How has your day been?" Asked she. "Terrible. I was banned from Blogs for you." "Oh, that`s too bad." "Too bad? I was banned from the only place where I fully express myself, and you say: that`s too bad! It`s more that!" "Well, sorry. But didn`t you just write ++++ in there?"  "What!? You say that  I wrote ++++!? You say that! How dare you!?" Frankel jumped from the couch, and took a big knife from the drawer (Jennifer started to kiss Madilyana, the woman in lead of the show, which Max saw). Frankel pointed he knife at Crisill, who only stood there, shocked (Jennifer tryed to explain to Max that Madilyana meant nothing to her). "You too." Said Frankell, voice as calm as the eye of a hurricane ( Max told to Jennifer that she meant nothing to him either, because he has a secret affair with Ricollo-twins). "I could believe it of those #¤¤%% at Blogs for you. But not of you. (Jennifer stood in her string bikinis, shocked) "I loved you. But I guess that I don`t love you anymore. (sensuell woman voice on the tv said: in the next episode: blablabla) " Crisill said as calmly as calmly as she could "Please, Frank`, put the knife down, ok?" "Soon." Said Frankell, whose eyes were two portals to temporary madness now, more than anything else (Ricollo-twins strangled Madilyana and Jennifer, while the shows produder was punching Max`s face). Frankell attacked poor Crisill, and stabbed her to her pelvis. She started to scream while she started to bleed. Frankell stabbed over and over again, but suddenly stopped. Crisill was bleeding something else than blood. she bled liguid metal. After Crisill noticed this too, she suddenly became hateful (the end credits of the episode rolled). The metal goed back to her body. "Yes, I remember now. I`m a cyborg, and I thought I`m a human." She brutally hurt Frankell, and fled away. End.  
 
Update: It has been one day and night, since these things happened. Already Frankell is been mocked in different blogs thruout the globe as a crazy man, `cause he thinks that his wife (now lost) is a cyborg.
                            
*If this isn`t the way that those who get banned, get banned, you can blame my ignorance. Or the fact that this is another universe, where alot of customs are different. 

 
Action comics 1 
 

Yay! Grant Morrison writes! Maybe I`ll buy this as a trade.  
 
I wonder why Morrison only seems to write superman-stories that happend in another universe... 
 
 
Those gloves look like gardening gloves made of snakeskin. 
 
He on the other hand, looks like a Bionicle figure. Or something else...Don`t know what though. 
 
 
I`m sure that they actually mean Frankestein: Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., instead of S.H.A.D.E.! Also, look! It`s a little older savage she-hulk with four arms and guns in background! Well, actually it`s a character I don`t know almost anything about.  
  
Supeman 1
  
Wow. George Perez writing Superman. I wonder if it`s really good. 
  
Suicide sguad 1

... 
Sorry, I just got stared at that image in what Harley Quinn is wearing even more revealing costume than she did in BATMAN: Arkham asulym. Also, she looks like a sadistic Joker-kind of murderer. Bad thing... 
  

  
well, those were my thoughts.

Superpressure and superventrigoluism. Honestly, I don`t know if Superman is so powerful that he can change rocks to licuid. Well, maybe the pre-crisis Superman. But the superventrigoluism is truly the most obscure superpower. I mean, pre-crisis Superman could use it to talk to someone in the other side of the world! What the...!

Actually, I think that all of his powers are obscure. But if he would have more realistic powers, would it be so fun? Besides, I think I have an explanation for his powers. You just have to wait for 20 years or so to find out, so that I can make a superman story with a great writer.

Bye!

Check out this article first, if you already haven`t.

Ok, there are many options, when it comes to this whole thing.

A)They`ll start to publish more stories of the world of Flashpoint. Like the Ultimate-universe with Marvel. I`d be somehow fine with this. It would be better than option D, even if this option would mean that more trees would die.

B) They`ll reboot the DCU for a while. I`d be fine with this `cause I live in Finland, where lots of DC-comics aren`t published, so it wouldn`t affect me much. But it all would be confusing.

C) They`ll include few/all/many FP-characters to the current roaster of DCU-characters (as J. Caleb Mozzocco from "Everyday is like wednesday " thinks that might possibly happend.). I`d think that this would be kind o` cool.

D) They`ll reboot certain things. I`d hate this option, `cause they`ve done it once before, and it`s confusing and irritating and un-realistic*. It actually wouldn`t probably affect me and my comicsreading experiences a whole lot, but I still think it shouldn`t be done. Sure, something good would also come out of it, but I don`t care!

I think that the best options are B and C. Well, those are my thoughts. Bye!

*Some of you probably think that it may sound weird, but think about for example Grant Morrisons, Alan Moores, J.michael straczynskis and Neil Gaimans stories. No matter how weird things sometimes get, there`s always something realistic about their comics. It`s awesome, really.

There`s stuff about comics. And 2 articles about me liking the Simpsons.

Check it out if you wanna.

EDIT: For reasons that I don`t want you to know, I don`t want you to do that. But, if you ever stumble upon it, feel free to read it.

Some say that Alan Moore`s a crumpy old man. And that John byrne has an inflated ego. And that Dan Slott is a loudmouth. Yeah yeah, I get it. But what`s the use to talk about it? Or write or anything. Lets think about this for a second. Imagine you`re, for example, a comic writer. Not Frank Miller or anyone else, but YOU.Well, you have done comics for a while now, and you decide to go to computer ( or give an interview, or something). You talk/write about stuff, the way you have all your life. And then you say/write something someone doesn`t like. And that someone says something you don`t like, to you. And it all might evolve to a fight. And suddenly, you`re being called a b***h (I don`t like to use slandering or curse words), and with other names like that. And others speak other bad things, or not-that-bad-but-still-bad -enough-I-guess-things about you. That makes you feel angry, sad etc. All because you had a different opinion than the next guy/gal/other, or you were crouchy having not slept or eaten enough. And `cause you spoke like you have for years now. Or there was a mis-understandment (tear in the eye).It`s the same for them.

Actually, it`s the same thing everywhere. No matter what job, no matter what kind of a person you are. All kinds of beings (like people) sometimes fail to understand that everyone are actually, very much like everyone else. It`s so weird, frustrating, crazy and sad.

Ok, that was in a way, guite clicheic, and I don`t know if it got anyone thinking about it (I`m not talking about sex). But anyway...

Good night/evening/day/any part of the day and night boys and girls (or any who are neither, something in the between, or something beyond those).
