    You'd think that would be the case but its not. There are some events where you could have your entire team just destroy the rest of the field and only two of them are allowed into the finals while the rest of the finals would be made up of a bunch of people that scored much less or went much slower than anyone on your team. Eventually it probably will end up being everyone gets a medal or this guy is to dominant and it isn't fair to everyone else so he isn't allowed in anymore.

    Loeb's "Hush" regularly gets mentioned as an example of a good comic book... Does that count?

    'Mm,' she agreed. 'He's a little bit dodgy in the same way that rats are a little bit covered in fur."

    From the attic came an unearthly howl. The whole scene had an eerie, surreal quality, like when you’re on vacation in another city and Jeopardy comes on at 7:00 p.m. instead of 7:30.

    I want to read a novel by whoever wrote that. ^
