thebitterguyDid anyone catch The Current this morning? Since I was late getting into work I got to hear a part of their discussion of Civil War.
Interesting, although the radio play rendition of Cap VS Shield from CW 1 was a bit much. The voice actor for Cap was all wrong.
The discussion was interesting; Quesada made me not want to throw up at all. The whole liberty vs security issue is an interesting one, and I’m glad it never comes up in real life! The one problem is that superheroes, by definition, are lawbreakers; you have to do a lot of dancing to make it no seem so. They are, by definition, masked vigilantes. The only difference between Batman and a KKK member is worldview. Okay, and a whole bunch of other stuff.
The real problem seems to be the revolving door at the Vault, since supervillains can just bust out of the place whenever they feel like it. Didn’t Henry Pym start providing shrinkological services to them a while back? If Doc Ock would just stay behind bars and serve his time, Spidey wouldn’t have to worry about Aunt May being slain.
It was interesting when Dad Didio came on the line and discussed how they handle similar issues in the DCU by "having Superboy punch the universe until they go away".
