Oh c'mon Plawsky! IT WAS SUPPOSE TO BE ZAPPY TIME! ZAPPY TIME!

Oh, Plawsky,

@wyokid, I think its that girl turtle for the live action tv show which sucked and this was like a pre-teen Samorai who thought this.

@thecrimson, Oh I didnt know about the free online play, maybe ill try it out when I have time. I am 22.

Do we still get to name this one or is the name "Another Star Trek Reference" final?

So whos pumped for Dinosaurs vs. Aliens? Got my hardcover pre-ordered! The art looks so killer.

I'm contemplating a name change, but it would break the Star Trek theme. I know you'll like it though. I have yet to decide.

WHo has more fame, awards and recognition in the comics world?

If it's Batman we're talking about, Jeph Loeb.

Fame, awards, and recognition mean nothing when comparing two writers. With that logic, you're saying that Bendis is one of the best writers in the business. He's got five Eisners (two of which are for Best Writer) to Morrison's four (only one for something other than All-Star Superman). Those Best Writer awards put Bendis alongside Alan Moore, Neil Gaiman, and Ed Brubaker as the only writers to win it more than once. Plus, Ultimate Spider-man is nominated for this year's Best Continuing Series; no DC books are nominated.

It is indeed XD

All I'm saying is that they should reference the awfulness that was OR introduce a non turtle awesome character and make her have the same name or something.

Jeph Loeb has nothing on the Batman fame that writers such as Dennis O'Neill, Frank Miller and Grant Morrison carry. Sadly he's probably more known than Dixon or Grant, which is a shame.

Fame, awards, and recognition mean nothing when comparing two writers.

Sinx feels Grant Morrison is overrated, while anything good can be considered overrated. Morrison himself has alot more to back up with himself with his originality, compared to what Snyder has done. I simply wanted to use that recognition from awards here, since Snyder himself has been nominated as well.

lol. Your on you own with this one man.

Also, there is no such thing as being overrated.

Give me at least a day and I can find it for you. You're not that much older than I :D.

Based on what? I implore you to find me a top 10 or 25 list of Batman books that doesn't have at least one Loeb book on it. The Long Halloween is extremely well received by critics and fans alike. Hush will be on a lot of those lists as well, and some will include Dark Victory. I know you hate him, but Loeb's Batman work is popular. Is it better than Morrison's? I'm not saying that. I think Grant Morrison's Batman run is fantastic. It hasn't won Eisner awards, though, and that's something that you brought up. There's no questioning that Loeb's Batman books are equally as popular as Morrison's, if not more so, and certainly more popular than Dennis O'Neil's. Again, I'm not saying they're better, just more popular, meaning more fame. The only writer who is far above the rest is Frank Miller, thanks to Year One and DKR.

I simply wanted to use that recognition from awards here, since Snyder himself has been nominated as well.

So you can compare two writers based on awards, but I can't? Awards don't prove originality. That's an opinion.

Funny thing happened when I worked at the local library. This man comes in wearing a large coat, and he suddenly opens it and he's naked underneath it! He flashes everyone. My friend, she just looks him up and down and calmly says, "Am I supposed to be impressed with that tiny thing?" He blushes and runs out lol.
