No, his exact words were, "Cookie is now...SOMETIMES food."

I'm still pondering what kind of Special Guest Emma Frost would be on Sesame Street.

I hope she at least keeps her midsection covered. eek eek

I haven't seen Sesame Street in many years. My understanding is that it is but a shadow of its former self. frown

Yeah. I think they really dumbed it down, personally. sigh

But if anyone could revitalize it AND be evil enough to kill the thread at Yuletide, it would be a legacy supervillain!

Elmo: "Gee, Miss Frost, what did you do to that monster?"

Emma: "Fried his brain like an egg, darling."

I can't figure out why they needed to give Emma crystal-type powers when she was already almost as powerful a telepath as Jean/Phoenix.

Of course, if she fried Elmo's brain nobody would know the difference. Feh.

Cleome, the diamond powers were because the writer needed a way for her to survive the attack on Genosha by a newer, deadlier model of Sentinels.

Pretty lame either way, though.

Confession time: I had to look up who Emma Frost was. I am fairly clueless when it comes to Marvel characters.

Just out of curiosity, Rocky, what is it about Marvel that puts you off?

I used to be the world's biggest Marvel-head, but this go-round I'm really only interested in Daredevil.

One of their former editors making an ass of himself on Twitter last month didn't exactly give me warm fan-fuzzies, either.

I don't think it's anything in particular about Marvel, Fanfie, other than I feel a strong loyalty to DC. I think I'd feel I was betraying the DCU or something. It's a habit of a lifetime that I don't think I could change.

Have you watched the any of Marvel's recent movies? What I like about Marvel is their character and team designs, while I feel DC has better stories.

I've seen some of them, but I wait to see them on DVD from the library. It's weird, I know, but I've been a loyal DC fan since the old Super Friends show in the '70s.

Super Friends was my introduction to the whole superhero thing. I'm particularly fond of the next-to-last season. Frank Welker and Rene Auberjonois did wonderful voice acting as, respectively, Darkseid and DeSaad.

You know I love that show, Fanfie. I think Wonder Twin Zan was one of my first cartoon crushes. laugh

For some reason, the scene where Darkseid and his minions are at a an intergalactic crime action and he bids "one bleen" on the item he wants has always stood out in my memory!

Zan was voiced by the prolific voice actor Michael Bell, who was also the talking Parkay container.

Michael Bell also had a role in "Encounter at Farpoint", the pilot episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation.

My favorite Trek franchise remains DS9, though I lost interest around the time that Odo started taking dating advice from holographic Rat Pack denizens.

DS9 is my favorite Star Trek series too! The writers clearly were inspired by history when they wrote about key events. Benjamin Sisko is my favorite captain.

I agree. DS9 was the best. I always wondered exactly what Bashir and O'Brien were doing in the Holosuites. laugh
