It's the cause celebre (http://absorbascon.blogspot.com/) of the comics blogosphere (http://gutterninja.com/archives/2005/05/19/regarding-that-emotherem-war-in-space/), and it's time for you CBR'ers to make the call!
Who do you support? Rann (http://snarkfree.blogspot.com/2005/05/adam-strange-ass-kicker.html) or Thanagar (http://snarkfree.blogspot.com/2005/05/rannthanagar-counterpoint.html)?
EDIT: Looks like the "posters" aren't coming up . . . I'll turn them into links.

I went for peace loving Rann...Not those warmongering Thanagarians!

Exactly!
I mean, Thanagar invaded us. Twice!
Rann has been nothing but a friend and ally these many years.

I really CAN'T decide. I guess Rann. Yeah, I'll go for Rann.

Definitely Rann. Thanagar needs to completely and forever destroyed; if only so we don't have to suffer from another Hawkman origin reboot. Plus on the JL cartoon, they were liars and backstabbers!

I guess I'm in the minority - Thanagar gets my support :evilsmile

If there is anything I learned reading Alan Moore's run of Swamp Thing is that Rannians like to watch cat skull porn to get in the mood. I can't support anybody who watches cat skull porn. GO THANAGAR!

A well-argued support of Rann, echoing ED and Paul's position. (http://snarkfree.blogspot.com/2005/05/have-you-ever-been-cajoled.html)
An equally well-argued support of Rann, by Sean Whitmore. (http://snarkfree.blogspot.com/2005/05/adam-strange-ass-kicker.html)
A terrible, terrible counter-argument by Sean Hutchinson. (http://snarkfree.blogspot.com/2005/05/rannthanagar-counterpoint.html)

Let's see... who do I side with?
A planet that has as a hero a cool, smart guy with a ray gun, jetpack, beautiful wife, and who figures out how to come out on top by using both brains AND brawn?
OR
A planet full people that it seems no matter how far advanced they become technologically, they come off as no better than Conan with wings, a mace, and maybe some sort of laser rifle?
Yeah, I'm all with Rann on this one.
Although... Conan with wings... hmm... No. Rann all the way.

Although they did have to import said hero from us.
I'm still with Rann, however.

Me too, I like the bird helmet motif that the Thanagarians are into. The people of Rann just seem bland and too retro in a Gernsback sort of way.

i gotta go with Rann, based on storyline( it aint their fault) and the fact that they have the Uber Tech of the DC universe, and they have Strange, humans always win!

Actually, it was less of an import and more of an accidental happenstance. Strange just happen to teleport there in a moment of need and decided to keep returning out of love and admiration. He'll find some some intelligent way to get out of this... and if he doesn't, he'll shoot his way out.
