I didn’t mean you guys when I said ‘Fools’. It was 3 AM (don’t ask), and I was consumed by an all-consuming rage for the illustrator, fueled by the teachings of Paleontologist Dr. Jack Horner.

Salieri: That’s a really good point, but I think they were trying to draw Devil in the same style that Jack Kirby did, with little to no relation to actual reality. I don’t even know if he’s actually a T-Rex, or a similar animal.

Raj: While I can’t confirm it 100%, I certainly read it as a nutshot (however, upon re-reading, Jeff’s position and the lightning arcs at Val’s feet support your theory as well). Yours is a better interpretation, allowing them to beat Karate Kid with teamwork, rather than Batman being better than Val.

Is that what Batman did? I thought so at first too, but then I thought that Black Lightning took him out from behind.

Urgh…Must I remind you fools that to geta T-Rex into that position, yu;d have to break its spine, arms, tail and legs in no less than thirty-three places? THEY DIDN’T STAND UPRIGHT! It was more a sort of lurking, hunchbacked gait. I mean, honestly…

It was during the Lobdell run on X-Men, #62, I believe… Rougly the same period as the membership of “Maggott,” possibly the worst X-Man ever, with a good shot at Top Ten worst superheroes ever…
