“The home-grown hero would only meet us in a public place and refused to reveal his ‘secret identity’”: Well, so-called “Real” superhero SOS wouldn’t be much of a superhero if he revealed his secret identity to a newspaper reporter just because the reporter asked, now would he?
Things that should not be: Superheroes combined with student-written musical theater. I feel quite comfortable saying that without having actually seen Hey, Boy Wonder! The Other Adventures of Ultraman, or any other student-written musical theater about superheroes. Just call it a hunch.
Sam Raimi is “hopeful” Kirsten Dunst will sign on for ‘Spider-Man 4′: So is Caleb Mozzocco. C’mon Ms. Dunst, don’t let Sam Raimi and I down!
Arkansas Congressman Receives “Superhero” Award: His costume could use some work though.
University of Nebraska-Lincoln has an awesome collection of government sponsored comic books: Walt Kelly and Pogo on how being gainfully employed is cool and how to monitor children’s television habits! Chic Young and Blondie on mental health issues! Bill Mantlo, Al Kupperberg, Herb Trimpe, Captain America and the Campbell Kids on energy policy! And scads and scads more. And they’re downloadable! I think I’ve just discovered what I’ll be doing with all my free time for…well, forever, I suppose. (Via this blog).

I wouldn’t mind a Spider-Man 4 without Kirsten Dunst or Mary Jane. In fact I think I might prefer it…

I feel the same way. But by all means bring back Bryce Dallas Howard as Gwen Stacy and Elizabeth Banks as Betty Brant. Create a little love triangle with them.
The comics have basically wrote off MJ, why not the movies as well.

“or any other student-written musical theater about superheroes.”
Hell, you don’t even need to include the “about superheroes” to have me running away in terror.
