Cali, I'm afraid that one's true. It's just that...I so want Donna to finally shine on her own. I was very upset when Allen Heinberg had her substituting for Wonder Woman, but being completely incompetent. Donna has more to offer than that. OM, I actually never have smoked a cigarette. A close relative has been a smoker for decades, and that put me off smoking.

f) I hate Dan Jurgens, but I have his Aquaman issues because I'll buy anything that's drawn by Steve Epting

e) I think Brian Eno's Another Green World is overrated and Here Come the Warm Jets is his true masterpiece

Congratulations, Cali dear. You have the right answer. I'll admit I have some dodgy comics with Epting art (including -- gah -- the first few Howard Mackie issues of X-Factor v.1) but Jurgens is where I draw the line. I do not wish to contribute to his royalties. Jurgens ruined DC for me back in the day with Death of Superman, Zero Hour, and the Destiny's Hand arc in JLA. And I do believe that urban legend that a drunken Jurgens spoiled the original ending to Armageddon. Lad Boy, I do indeed prefer Eno's first solo album to his more acclaimed third. The former has wit, hooks, and chutzpah; the latter just bores me to sleep. Novelty, I do watch waaaaay too much of the Food Network. Giada De Laurentiis' show, Everyday Italian, is always a delightfully soothing half hour of escapism -- I wish that I too were beautiful, rich, and a good cook making a living at what I enjoy doing. And on a more sensationalistic note, those trainwrecks known as Rachael Ray and Sandra Lee amuse me to no end (although in RR's latest episodes she seems heavily sedated -- she's no longer crossing her eyes, pulling faces, wearing too much fake tan, waving her arms every which way, or loudly rasping out inanities. Darn.) KK, I love the first four seasons of Alias and loathe the fifth; every time it looked like it was gonna get good, it stumbled painfully, and the ending was appalingly bad. Here\'s my Alias thread. Quis, I truly cannot get enough Transformers; but you raise a good question -- does Kid Prime also have backups in his collection?

Haha, I'll admit I originally picked Donna Troy because of my feelings about her. But Jurgens... yeah. Can't say I have any particular partiality toward the man.
All right, as some of you might know, I write fan fiction. What Marvel character did I pick up for a 100 fic challenge? a) Jubilee b) Storm c) Moonstar d) Ms. Marvel e) Rogue f) She-Hulk g) Siryn h) Shadowcat i) 100 fics? You've gotta be kidding me. Even I'm not that deluded.

No Shulkie for me, I'm afraid. I've never actually tried to write her. I enjoy Slott's version far to much to mar it with my poor attempts.
And, though I love Kitty-- I've RP'd her and written her in a number of universes-- she wasn't the one for me. My friend Susan does her far better justice.

Hee. Nope, I haven't written the Sparkler in earnest for a while. I used to RP her-- she's one of my favorites-- but as I grew older, it got a bit more difficult. I did give it the old college try again not so long ago with moderately satisfying results but... yeah, no.

And if you're wrong, you can always come back and try again. And reposted for the new page: Originally posted by Caliente: As some of you might know, I write fan fiction.

Nope, I am foolish enough to try to write 100 fics/vignettes about this character. Don't ask me why... I've done 12 so far, though. Well, more kinda... but they're not completed.

I'm not a marvellite. Also, 100 fanfics? That's a crazy number. Why do a character most people would jump to do?

Let's see... I love Siryn, I do. I even RP'd her a few times (in Evo, strangely enough) but she's not my girl. I used to write Rogue all the time (with Gambit because I'm a sucker like that), but I don't like my old stuff anymore. So now it's harder to write her. I absolutely adore Storm! I've RP'd her and ficced her-- she's awesome. But it's not her, either. I've never actually tried to write Ms. Marvel. Much like Shulkie, I fear I could not do her justice. And, to be honest, I've only just recently become a fan. Yay, Brian Reed! So that leaves Novelty with the right answer! I picked my girl Dani because, not only do I love her, but no one else wanted her. Plus, I think her history's really interesting. There's so much you can do with it. Anyway, yes, I'm crazy. And you're up, kid!
